About this listen
A troubled sailor. A hundred-year-old sailboat. An ancient curse. Welcome to award-winning author John Hornor Jacobs’ nautical nightmare.
It begins and ends as always, with the sea.
Sam Vines is struggling. Her boat is up on the hard and she doesn’t have enough money to get her back in the water. Turns out the snorkelers and the scubadivers are looking for the ultra-luxury boating experience, not the single-handed, rarely sober, snarky stylings of sailboat captain Samantha Vines. So it’s a good thing when her former crewmate Loick asks her to help deliver a massive, hundred-year-old sailboat from Seattle to England. Sam is the only one who can handle the ship’s engine, and did Loick mention that the money is good? It’s very good.
The Blackwatch is a huge boat. An ancient boat. It’s also probably (definitely) haunted.
Sam’s alcohol withdrawal (sobriety is important at sea) has her doubting her senses, but when one crewmate disappears and another has a gruesome accident, she knows that this simple delivery job has spiraled into something sinister.
By turns terrifying, darkly funny, thought-provoking, and heartfelt, The Night That Finds Us All is a seductive, nautical nightmare.
Critic reviews
"The Night That Find Us All is a cosmic Master and Commander, blending Melville and Lovecraft with an added dash of acidic humor to keep the scurvy away. John Hornor Jacobs summons his superb gothic sensibilities in what is hands down his most exhilarating and breakneck novel to date." —Clay McLeod Chapman, author of Wake Up and Open Your Eyes
"Builds like a dark wave, and once it crests, it'll knock you over—John Hornor Jacobs has crafted a masterful tale, one of uncanny alienation out at sea with a protagonist whose savvy, sharp-tongued voice is alone worth the price of entry. Yet again, Jacobs reminds us that he is a writer of singular ability, and if the gods are just, this will be regarded as a classic of the genre." —Chuck Wendig, author of The Book of Accidents
"John Hornor Jacobs reminds us that he’s one of our best contemporary horror writers. The Night That Finds Us All combines action and dread like few other recent books, as a haunted ship’s crew fights both the ocean and an evil that will swallow them all." — Richard Kadrey, New York Times bestselling author of the Sandman Slim series
