    About this ebook

    Hal is a young man who can't help but feel responsible for the people he loves. In "Circle of Roses" he is pushed to his limits when death comes knocking. Hal must make a choice. Should he save someone he loves or save himself? "The Heist" is a superhero story flipped on its head. No one ever cares to ask how the bad guy feels let alone the bad guys number two. Allen, an average man with a knack for stealing things, is unsure of his choices when him and his boss take on the strongest superhero of the decade. Golden Galactic is not to be taken lightly. "Ghosts" is a mind-bending horror story about a young man who suffers from past traumas. Adrian is okay, at least that is what he tells his therapist. His ghosts say otherwise.
