Here are two more that you may not have come across:
Penpal by Dathan Auerbach A Lush and Seething Hell by John Hornor Jacobs
If you find yourself in a similar situation again, I would suggest /r/horrorlit on Reddit. They are huge fans of the genre over there, and they are very generous with their recommendations. That’s where I came across The Cipher, which @NinthAcolyte suggested.
I highly recommend the first two books in the series, Annihilation and Authority. The third one, Acceptance, had some issues, mostly that he didn’t leave the McGuffin from the first two books as a McGuffin.
I really liked the first 3/4 or so of 14 and The Fold. What I didn’t like is that the last fourth of both of those books changed tone entirely. Rather than a creepy mystery, we got a non-stop action romp. It’s like if the first 3/4 of a movie was The Exorcist ad the last 1/4 Terminator. I was hoping The Fold wouldn’t repeat the pattern, but unfortunately it did. I haven’t been able to bring myself to finish the series because of that.
