Some great news for THE SEVENTH WAVE - Oscar's family are allowing me to reprint a drawing Oscar was gifted when he was living in Borneo (now Sabah) - a sketch of a village he was the District Officer of.
Mislaid Book is proud to announce its latest volume, THE SEVENTH WAVE by Oscar Cook in June. A Borneo-set yarn featuring headhunters, a sacred skull, a love-triangle and suicide. Book comes out in June on its 100th anniversary.
Today is also Oscar Cook's birthday, born this day in 1888!

April's release is the never-before-reprinted and *extremely* rare LYCANTHIA by Frances Layland-Barratt from 1935. It's the last of the werewolf cycle from the 30s and 40s to be reprinted.
Can only hope that Steinbeck's unpublished werewolf novel MURDER AT FULL MOON is published one day!
The next book from Mislaid will be THE DEVIL'S CAULDRON by J.W. Nicholas, a mesmerism novel from 1886. Nicholas was the coroner who oversaw the infamous Mabel Greenwood poisoning case in 1919.
Book contains an essay on Nicholas' life and a brief essay about mesmerism and the fiction it spawned.
