In churches and convents and other religious communities, sisterhood takes many forms, forged and tested by such mundane threats as disease and despair, but also by terrors both spiritual and existential—Satan’s subtle minions and the cosmic nightmare of the Cthulhu Mythos. Sisterhood: Dark Tales and Secret Histories presents sixteen horror stories by some of the genre’s leading female voices. Their settings range around the globe and across the centuries, from 6th century Ireland to 17th century Virginia to Indonesia in the recent past.

In the gilded halls of Tudor England, where the favour of a king can elevate a family to dizzying heights or cast them into the shadows of history, Anne Boleyn’s tragic fall unfolds in all its terrifying detail. Queen Anne believes she has secured her family's legacy. But as political tides shift and the king’s affections wane, Anne finds herself ensnared in a web of treachery and betrayal.

In the aftermath of Anne Boleyn’s brutal downfall, Jane Seymour is thrust into the scorched ashes of a fractured royal court—and into the arms of a king she finds physically repellent. His bloated pride, mercurial temper, and the ghosts of two dead queens stir not desire, but dread. Quiet, devout, and long dismissed as unremarkable, Jane becomes Henry VIII’s third wife—the unlikely figure entrusted with restoring order and delivering the one prize he craves above all: a male heir.
