READ NOW

A ravaged world’s last gasp for survival-

The year is 2038, and Cass has spent nearly half her life on The Deliverance, hurling through space some 250 miles above the Earth. Her parents and the other scientists were supposed to be everyone’s salvation; sent up to create a cure for a plague in the space station’s zero-gravity labs. But something went wrong.

After the first three years, all communication with the surface was lost when a world war broke out in response to the apocalyptic epidemic. A one-year mission already extended far beyond what was intended, the inoculation was created too late.

Now eight years since it all started, their time has run out. In a decaying orbit, a small group of survivors is forced to the surface. Called The Fallen by those still clawing out an existence on Earth against all odds, they’re tasked with the monumental undertaking to bring their latest cure to the right people. What Cass and the others discover during their plight is a horror beyond anything they could have imagined and it may already be too late to save what’s left of humanity.

First is the psychological thriller, Echo of Fear

Vacation isn’t supposed to be terrifying-Chris Echo thought the perfect escape from the terrors of her life as a CSI profiler would be a private island in the South Pacific. But the tropical setting proves to be anything but peaceful when she soon finds herself trapped in the middle of something far more dangerous.

Kyle Stone’s own demons aren’t anything a remote luxury island can fix. He and the guerrilla band he’s infiltrated for a long undercover mission are traveling to an exchange. When a storm washes them ashore they take the resort’s guests as hostages. Stone is left with the choice to either keep his cover intact or save their lives–including the life of a beautiful woman who may just be his salvation.

Each of the island’s visitors harbors different fears, but they’re about to confront the ultimate one–the struggle between life and death. In the midst of the turmoil, Chris realizes that perhaps death isn’t her greatest challenge after all. Sometimes, it can be your own memories that destroy you.

The second book is the 11th story in the Samantha Wolf Mystery Series, The Secret of Sanctuary. A lighter tale that’s still full of twists and plenty of excitement! Perfect for fans of Nancy Drew and Trixie Beldon.

The mountains of Sanctuary are hiding a secret…

A camping trip takes an unexpected turn when Sam and her friends encounter some strange things in the woods. An archeological dig near the campground starts off as intriguing, but it’s soon apparent to Sam that things aren’t what they seem.

With a local legend to unravel, Sam, Ally, and the rest of the gang delve into a mystery that reaches far into the past. Solving it will take more than simply revealing the truth. It’ll require a tenacity that only Sam can wield and the help of her friends to see it through to the end.

Flashpoint: Book 1 in the Thrilling Post-Apocalyptic Survival Series
A heart-pounding new series from the #1 best-selling post-apocalyptic author

If your life dissolved in a flash, would you be strong enough to survive?

Half of the earth's population has been wiped out. Impossible to predict or stop, the Gamma Ray Burst tore through the Earth like a bullet, its radiation wave killing hundreds of millions and the aftereffects ensuring the deaths of billions more.

Now, as the world crumbles around them, a ragtag group of survivors make for the only home they know - the small town of Mercy. Spared the worst of the GRB's effects, the town is isolated, safe and self-sufficient - for now. The flash hasn't just decimated the Earth's population, though. It's brought out the worst in many of those who are still alive.

Survival in this new world doesn't just depend on preparedness - it depends on strength.
