    eBook (McKay Lewis Publishers, Aug. 18, 2011)
    "Gripping. This book is a first-rate thriller." (NY Times Best-selling author Brenda Novak) "A Terrifyingly Terrific Debut!" (Award-winning Author Loucinda McGary)This psychological suspense follows forensic psychiatrist Kate Myers who believes the killer of two teenage girls in Bigler County, California, is the same man who savagely murdered her twin sister over fifteen years ago. Working with a single-minded tenacity, she sets out to prove it.Deputy Sheriff Ben Slater hides his personal pain behind the job, but Kate's arrival in his county knocks his world on its axis and makes him believe in romance again. He wants to believe her wild theory, but the idea of a serial killer with the kind of pathology she proposes is too bizarre.Together they work to find a killer whose roots began in a small town in Bigler County, but whose violence spread across the nation. A Janus-like killer, more monster than man, he fixates on Kate and wants nothing more than to kill the "purple-eyed girl again."As this crime thriller builds to a conclusion, Kate finds herself in grave danger, while Slater uses his forensics skills to discover who the madman is and where he's taken her.

  • The Watchers: Knight of Light

    Deirdra Eden, Julia Farmer, Netherfield Publishing

    Audiobook (Netherfield Publishing, Nov. 11, 2015)
    All the training in Heaven couldn't prepare me for the war on earth, nor for the love, loss, or loneliness humans feel. There are things worse than death, and every last one of them is hunting people like us. Even though we all feel human at times, we must remember, we are not them, we are their watchers. In England, 1270 AD, Auriella flees her village after being accused of witchcraft. Pursued by nightmarish creatures, she struggles to accept the truth about her humanity. Filled with fairies, dwarves, pixies, dragons, demons, and monsters, Knight of Light is an enthralling tale that will capture the imaginations of listeners young and old. The Watchers Series has been described as Braveheart meets Supernatural. The mythology for the series is based on many theological texts from dozens of sects with correlating themes. Ancient writings include the Dead Sea Scrolls, the Traditional Apocrypha, The Pearl of Great Price and the Kabbalah. The Watchers are supernatural beings in human form whose duty it is to protect and guard mankind from the armies of darkness. Unfortunately, as the Book of Enoch mentions, some of these Watchers go bad.

    eBook
    The first book in 'The Watcher Series', begins the story of Ben, Valentina, and Jaime who seem like your typical high school Juniors living in a sleepy little New Hampshire town. But when Valentina discovers she is the unwitting pawn in an ancient game she never knew existed, the three of them must face the most difficult decisions they've ever had to make. Ben and Jaime must choose whether to alter the courses they have long been ordained to follow, or risk everyone and everything to change what they were born to be, while Valentina must face the fact that the two boys, and even her own self, are not what she's always believed them to be.***“The human mind can’t comprehend how dark and bitter its days can become. It’s a survival instinct. You roll your eyes at the scroungy man holding the placard reading The End Is Near, maybe you worry ever so slightly at Mayan calendar predictions, fret over global warming in an absent, uninvolved way, so that when it really happens, when everything really does fold in on itself you’re left stunned and unprepared. You’re left standing in the blotted out wasteland of what’s left of the world, crying about the unfairness of it all and wondering how this has happened to you. That’s humanity for you. Self-imposed blindness is its survival mechanism,” he says, solemnly. “But dark horrible things happen to people everyday. And you’d be a fool to believe they couldn’t happen to you as well.” Valentina can’t help but roll her eyes at his over the top declaration. “So we should just spend our entire lives hiding under the covers?” He flashes his big endearing smile as he wraps an arm around her and yanks the blanket over their heads. And in the end she wasn’t prepared. No one was. He’d been right, but then again he always was. And why wouldn’t he be? After all it’d been him that had orchestrated it all.

    Perfect Strangers Every day, she sits at the top of the stairs leading to the beach. Always writing in her little notebook. Always watching. Watching the loving big brother, so caring and attentive to his little sister. Watching the handsome lifeguard with his golden tan. But no matter how closely she watches, she can't begin to know the secrets behind the perfect facades of their lives. And they can't begin to know the truth about the strange, sad girl who each day sits alone -- and watches.
