    About this series

    The Gospel of Shadows enabled the Catholic Church to control all manner of supernatural beings for centuries. When the book was destroyed - and the ruling body of the Church with it - it enabled the Shadows, the vampires of legend, to learn the hidden truth of their triple nature: part human, part demonic, part divine.

    But it also weakened the barriers that exist between the worlds, and now beings of pure evil are breaking through - creatures from other dimensions for which Hell is just a name.

    Peter Octavian, once a powerful Shadow, now restored to humanity, is the only man with sufficient knowledge to stop them. Aided by an earthwitch, a vampire, and a priest, and calling on the magical forces of mother nature herself, Octavian stands between the Earth and apocalypse, as entire cities are plunged into the abyss.

      This audiobook is narrated by a digital voice. After the disaster at Nightridge, Sheriff Norris Cunningham is trying to put his life back together. But an unexpected call from an almost forgotten comrade takes him to the dark valleys of Willow’s Heart into an investigation involving the ritualistic beheading of seven wolves.  Is it a madman with a vendetta against animals? Is it a sign? Or a warning?  The answers begin to come up when one decapitated body is discovered in an ancient family’s house turns into several, and reports of missing people emerge.  With NYPD detective Tom Nash by his side, Sheriff Cunningham sets out to find the killer. But this is the genesis of an era where technology conspires with witchcraft to control the present and reshape humanity’s future.   Are they ready or unprepared for the occult crimes ahead?
