Four stunning novels of the supernatural, by the author of 100 published novels
From Gothic romance to demonic horror, from high fantasy to an invasion from a parallel universe, these full-length tales provide nonstop thrills.
In Touch Me in the Dark, a Gothic romance, young widow Sharon and her seven-year-old son move into a rooming house with a bloody past. A housemate, injured ex-cop Ian Fanning, is obsessed with painting the woman his grandfather murdered - who looks exactly like Sharon. Then his grandfather's ghost returns with deadly unfinished business.
In the demonic thriller Echoes, newspaper reporter Laura Bennett probes a series of strange crimes in San Paradiso, California. As she peels away layers of evil, she uncovers mounting threats to the city and ultimately the world - and, at the center, horrifying secrets from her own childhood.
In the dark fantasy Shadowlight, only a girl of a despised ancient race can stand against the evil queen - her half-sister - and an army of the undead. As Shadow struggles to master her inherited powers, she and her ragtag friends must journey to a forbidden realm to enlist the aid of a great mage who has the power to claim her heart, and to betray her.
In Out of Her Universe, an innovative s.f. thriller, eerie perceptions trouble artist Hannah Fleischer, who has no idea she was born on a parallel Earth where history has followed a dangerously different course. Then the link between the two universes reactivates unexpectedly. While a secret security team struggles to capture a mysterious intruder, cascading events thrust Hannah, unprepared, into the center of a crisis that could destroy both her worlds.
As a bonus, the anthology includes a short-short story, "The 9 to 5 Wizard," never before published in book form.
Genre: Paranormal Romance
