The Borrowed Souls

What comes next?

Is it Heaven or Hell?

Neither, it’s much different than he’d ever imagined.

Jack had an extraordinary wife and a modest apartment. The job was mediocre, but who loved their job? So, why wasn’t he happy?

Each day was an emotional roller-coaster for Jack.

When he is betrayed in the worst way, he tries to end it all.

He should have stuck it out.

What he found–after he tried to kill himself–shook him to the core. A job awaited on the other side, one he didn’t want, and wasn’t prepared for, and the payout was knowledge about the worst thing imaginable … his life.

Was there anything worse?

Jack is the new soul collector. For each soul he collects, a layer of his own life is peeled away, and he must face the reality of what he truly had. Can he handle what he learns?

Actions have consequences.

You’ll love this riveting occult suspense horror story, because of the depth of the characters and the twists you’ll never see coming.

The Hunted Assassin

spi-fi, sci-fi, thriller, Jaxon Rasner, Jason Bourne

His name is an alias. His pretense is a disguise. His very existence on Taloo Station is no accident.

Martin Wheeler—AKA Jaxon Rasner, is hiding from his past. After nearly a decade of living in obscurity, a team of killers is sent to end his life. Making matters worse, his estranged daughter is brutally abducted.

Marked for death, he must return to the life he left behind as he races for survival throughout the Outer Ring, where he has no choice but to embrace the killer within.

Linear Shift

A widower at his wit’s end. An unexpected mission back in time.

When Peter Cooper has a bizarre encounter with a desperate Army general, he’s suddenly catapulted to the year 1942. World War II is in full swing. Peter is charged with changing a single moment in time. If he fails, his personal history may very well suffer. If he succeeds, he will have altered the outcome of the war. But, unbeknownst to him, a secret society looms, threatening to destroy the very time machine he’s used, and ruin any chance of him returning to his children and the life he once knew.

With his personal fate—and the fate of the entire world—in his hands, Peter must be willing to stop at nothing to succeed. Is the once broken man up to the task?

Reversion

At the end of the world ... never dismiss the unexpected.

A surprise reunion. A forgotten friend.

Long odds and determination reward Sheriff Clay Dobbs with a bit of what he wants most. But, he won't rest—he can't rest—not until he's dead. And he has no plans for that until he defeats the insane military General that has caused so much hardship. But, it's not as easy as he thinks, not when there's an even more neurotic psychopath standing in his way. Can Clay learn to control himself, and the undead around him?

When the Crazed come for you, where will you hide?

Turn

A town on the run ... The Crazed that wants their flesh.

Will they make it out alive?

When a meteorite crashes to earth it catapults a small Utopian town into an archaic nightmare. It's up to one man to protect them, not only from the flesh-eating monsters but also from the maniacal colonel who storms in, barking orders for immediate evacuation. Clay Dobbs is the small town sheriff about to, unknowingly, take on the end of the world.

When the Crazed come for your flesh, how will you survive?

Detour

Their escape was certain ... or so they thought.

Their survival is, and forever will be, in question.

With the nanite epidemic out of control, Clay leads his skeleton crew head first into the aftermath. The nightmare continues as he battles both the Crazed and the rouge, as well as his own inner demons. The once small town sheriff must find order where there is no law until he encounters his near equal at the end of the world. But, is she all that she seems? Will Clay unravel all the clues before it's too late?

The road is a dark and chilling place. There is no time to rest if you want to survive.

Rememorations

"Your mind needs more than to just forget. Memories need to be removed completely. The Rememoration machine will help you with that."

Is living forever all that it's cracked up to be?

Decades after receiving an immortality endowment, Nathan Duncan returns to the Lazarus Center for Extended Living to discover that his treatment was not all he was promised. The routine maintenance he requires will affect his past every bit as much as his future.

Now, Nathan can’t help wondering: Is it the man that makes the memories, or vice versa?

Gateway: A Story from the Alteruvium Expanse

What's worse?

Losing your memories ...

... or having lost your mind entirely?

Robert Paulson and Paul Robertson have a similar fate ... neither of them knows anything about who they are, or were for that matter.

Just as one believes he's figured out his alien surroundings, the other cries foul.

When desperate attempts are made to reveal their true identities, reality plays havoc.

As more of their past and present lives are revealed, it becomes alarmingly clear that they each think they're in the wrong persons body ... and quite possibly, on the wrong planet entirely.

In the end, can they both be right or can only one exist?

Get it now.
