Some little girls have imaginary friends. Ann LeSage had the Insect. A violent poltergeist that tore a murderous path through her family, it wasn't imaginary--and it definitely wasn't a friend.

Now Ann is all grown up--and so is the Insect. And Ann's upcoming marriage to a mysterious young lawyer is about to open up a whole new world to both of them, rife with secrets and laced with traps. Soon, Ann will find herself in a perverse battle against a group of men who want to wrest control of the Insect from her.

"Few writers do psychosexual horror as well as Toronto's David Nickle, and with The 'Geisters he's back with another tale of voluptuous terror and the supernatural." --Toronto Star

"This is a book that buzzes in your ears, climbs your crawling skin with multiple barbed feet, feeling with exquisitely sensitive antennae for the next new and terrible revelation." --The National Post

"[The 'Geisters] doesn't just explore the attractiveness of terror--it embodies it in a narrative that demands (excites even as it repels) your attention. It's a(nother) strong novel by one of the best, most interesting horror writers working today." --Bookgasm
