BLACK WELLS NOVELS
All These Subtle Deceits (Dark Hart Books, Oct, 2022)
“With his thriller-horror novel All These Subtle Deceits, C. S. Humble demonstrates the benefit of combined genres in the hands of a shockingly talented author: Brisk pacing with fully realized characters in a brilliantly conceived setting. This is seamless hybrid fiction at its very best. My recommendation: Follow this author to new ground in the horror universe.” – S.P. Miskowski, author of I Wish I Was Like You
Lauren Saunders moved to Black Wells, Colorado to escape a toxic relationship that stole three years of her life. But her hopeful optimism of a fresh start is dashed after a brutal, supernatural attack sends her screaming from a nightclub into the cold, winter night. Her journey toward recovery leads her to the doorstep of William Daniels—a professional spiritual intercessor and occult consultant. Together they will descend into an occult labyrinth of dark forces and oppressive spirits.

The Massacre at Yellow Hill (Cemetery Dance, 2023)
“The Massacre at Yellow Hill is a rollicking and bloody take on the Old West through a Robert E. Howard-style zoetrope. Humble flexes pulp literary muscle in his gritty action sequences and evocative descriptions of a harsh, sinister shadow world.” –Laird Barron, author of Blood Standard
When George Miller is killed in the mines of Yellow Hill, his wife and children are left to try and piece their lives back together. Tabitha Miller, George’s widow, is thrown into deeper chaos when she discovers that George’s death had nothing to do with the cave’s collapse, but was caused by some terrible predator deep within the earth. His death covered up by the mine’s Proprietor-Jeremiah Hart.
In nearby Big Spring, freed slave-turned-occult bounty hunter Gilbert Ptolemy arrives with his adopted son in search of a murderous vampire. New revelations in Yellow Hill draw the duo toward the struggling Miller family, the strange mine, and the horrors lurking within.
