Black Canyon
Twelve-year-old Brian Garrett embarks on a weekend camping trip in Colorado’s Black Canyon of the Gunnison, hoping to reconnect with his distant parents. But when his father suffers a brutal accident deep in the chasm, survival takes a sinister turn. Over the next twenty-four hours, Brian will face a horrifying truth about his father—and himself.

Rewind
A man wakes in a decaying apartment, hooked to a mysterious machine, a dead body in the next room—and no memory of who he is. As he pieces together his identity over the next forty-eight hours, he makes a shocking discovery: he may be one of the most powerful figures of the twenty-first century. But some secrets should never be uncovered.

Run
A year ago, Charlotte barely escaped with her life after her boyfriend Luke—a former soldier suffering from PTSD—snapped during a camping trip in the Catskills. Now, she’s rebuilding in the quiet town of Ashenville, North Carolina. But when Luke is released from prison and shows up at her doorstep, determined to win her back—or destroy her—Charlotte realizes she has only one option: run.

Neighbors
New York City is a haven for those who value anonymity—exactly why twenty-five-year-old Buddy Smith calls it home. But when a beautiful and enigmatic woman moves in next door, his carefully controlled world unravels. She’s charming, unpredictable… and may be a killer. Against his better judgment, Buddy lets her in—unaware that one night with her will change his life forever.

Box of Bones
Jim, an American expat teaching English in the Philippines, wakes up after a night out to find himself trapped inside a pitch-black coffin—running out of oxygen and out of time. With only his cell phone and his wits, he must fight panic and exhaustion in a desperate race against death.

Six Bullets
Thirteen months after a massive asteroid wiped out civilization, survivalist Burt James is still alive—bunkered in his fortified home deep in the Australian Outback. But now, his food is gone, his ammunition is down to six bullets, and his toughest decision yet is fast approaching.

The Mailman
Los Angeles, 1985. The Sunset Strip is the epicenter of sex, drugs, and rock ’n’ roll, and record executive Mick Freeman is betting his career on signing a reckless band that could redefine music. Meanwhile, his wife, Jade, lonely and adrift in their crumbling marriage, finds herself drawn to the new mailman—a dangerously seductive stranger who pulls her into a nightmare she never saw coming.

Re-Roll
In the near future, lifelike humanoid robots called Mechs are on the market, programmed to be whatever their owners desire—partners, companions, or servants. Each new Mech comes with a free "roll" to determine its three defining traits. But as everyone knows, luck is fickle, and if you don’t like your first result, you can always re-roll—if you’re willing to pay the price.
