    About this ebook

    THE GRAY PORTRAIT is set in our modern world where an elaborate art heist leaves Basil Gray to question, finally, his own mortality in this reimagined version of classic horror with otherworldly overtones.

    WILLARD'S COUSIN provides a healthy dose of fear and anxiety and allows it to thrive and fester as little Billy is engulfed and overtaken by giants only to realize that what he truly had to fear was giving into their demands.

    In REVENANT HOPE, we enter a time when the world as we know it is gone. Survival rests in the hands of the person next to you. There is but one rule: In life, or death, never leave your partner. When Spencer breaks this rule, his guilt overwhelms and controls his life. After a decade of living with that guilt, he ventures into the pit to set right his greatest regret. Only to find despair and death.

    The 1950s were a magical time where everything, at least on the surface, was perfect and squeaky clean; a fake, highly polished shine on a sick and twisted period in our history. THE TWO LOVERS examines the lives of Sally and Walter, two sweet hearts out for a night drive. This thriller takes you along for their greatest achievement as a couple. And their worst.

    Addiction and abuse has taken root in our society. Halfway houses service the afflicted and some, like Todd, are able to beat their inner demons. MORTIMER'S GIFT tells such a story, combining the power of truth with facing one’s own greatest fears.

    The injustice of rape in the college culture is two-fold: the sanctity of the woman being forever demolished and the glorification of the attacker if they meet certain socio-economic standards. HELL, HATH NO FURY tells the story of Mary, a college co-ed, who suffers this injustice at the hands of the well-liked, and well-off, Matt Lawson. When the justice system fails her, Mary seeks to get satisfaction and revenge in this piece of horror with psychological and paranormal elements.
