Summary

The bestselling author of international BookTok sensation If We Were Villains returns with a story of a group of misfits who meet in the local cemetery each night to unearth the secrets lurking in an open grave.

Every night, in the college's ancient cemetery, five people cross paths as they work the late shift: a bartender, a rideshare driver, a hotel receptionist, the steward of the derelict church that looms over them, and the editor-in-chief of the college paper, always in search of a story.

One dark October evening in the defunct churchyard, they find a hole that wasn't there before. A fresh, open grave where no grave should be. But who dug it, and for whom?

Before they go their separate ways, the gravedigger returns. As they trail him through the night, they realize he may be the key to a string of strange happenings around town that have made headlines for the last few weeks--and that they may be closer to the mystery than they thought.

Atmospheric and eerie, featuring an ensemble of misfits that fans will love and a delightfully familiar academic backdrop, Graveyard Shift is a modern Gothic tale in If We Were Villains author M. L. Rio's inimitable style.

It wasn’t my cup of tea

After if we were villains I had major expectations for this, even if it was billed as a novella. It’s nothing really completely missable. The first thought that came to mind was scooby do with a non ending.

Dark Sci-Fi Horror Novella

This is a brilliant characterisation of the various types of insomnia, combined with penny dreadful mystery. It stands alone as a novella and had some stand out chilling moments. Highly recommended, quick and disturbing read.
