A mysterious death leads to a gothic inheritance, where intrigue and supernatural elements intertwine in The Supernatural Enhancements.
In The Supernatural Enhancements, the story begins with the unexpected death of Ambrose Wells, who takes a fatal leap from his bedroom window at Axton House, neglecting to open it first. This peculiar incident sets the stage for a distant relative to inherit the gothic estate located in Point Bless, Virginia. As the new inhabitants arrive, they are accompanied by an unusual companion, adding an intriguing layer to the unfolding narrative.
As they acclimate to their eerie surroundings, the characters become captivated by local legends surrounding ghosts, suicides, and clandestine societies. With each passing day, they realize they are not merely observers but active participants in a mysterious 'Game' that intertwines their fates with the estate's dark history. The atmosphere thickens with suspense as they delve deeper into the secrets of Axton House, uncovering hidden truths that challenge their perceptions of reality.
The Supernatural Enhancements artfully blends elements of a haunted house tale with the intrigue of a supernatural conspiracy thriller. The narrative weaves a rich tapestry of suspense, inviting readers to question the nature of the game they are ensnared in and the true motives of those around them. As the characters grapple with their discoveries, the stakes rise, leading to a gripping conclusion that leaves a lasting impression.

A wonderful, enthralling book. The Supernatural Enhancements is one of those rare literary creations that shortens the long hours of night. You emerge from its pages at sunrise, suddenly aware that you've spent the whole night reading. Few authors create such books. Edgar Cantero does it gracefully. -- Jason Mott, author of The Returned
Eerie, puckish, and full of surprises…Cantero pays homage to Bram Stoker and H.P. Lovecraft and The Shining, but he’s no less enamored of The X-Files, fax machines, and punk girls with dreads. The result is a propulsive, beguiling novel that is as easy to get swept up in as it is hard to describe. -- Justin Taylor, author of Flings and The Gospel of Anarchy
Cantero sets the novel up to be one type of mystery and then he lets other mysteries float into the story. It’s not that he invalidates earlier mysteries . . . but rather he makes them no longer as important because this next one is crazy!
Southern gothic meets Euro hipness in Catalan novelist Cantero’s inventive, enjoyable outing in postmodern mystery writing...Quirky in presentation and good fun throughout, Cantero’s yarn pleases at every turn.
* Kirkus *Cantero's fresh, original prose style and the steady flow of twists, turns, and code breaking will have mystery, thriller, and supernatural fans glued to their seats until they reach the electrifying conclusion. * Library Journal (Starred Review) *
The kinetic action of a graphic novel wrapped up in a literary thriller. * The Free Lance-Star (Fredericksburg) *
A clever and engrossing horror-thriller mash-up that delivers genuine scares. * Buffalo News *
