S.L. James
S.L. James is a storyteller drawn to the forgotten, the haunted, and the truths buried beneath silence. A lifelong writer and lover of psychological thrillers, James crafts fiction where memory lingers like a shadow and justice is never simple. His debut novel, The Widow’s Shadow, explores the chilling intersections between unsolved crimes and the supernatural. Based in Maine, James finds inspiration in the eerie beauty of abandoned places and the unseen struggles of everyday life, blending elements of crime, horror, and human resilience to create stories that haunt the heart as much as the mind. When not writing, he can be found wandering old bookstores, studying cold cases, or sketching new worlds where even the ghosts have a voice; for James, fiction is both a mirror and a torch — illuminating the places most are too afraid to look.
In every shadow, a voice still calls.
