A professor and a detective must pair up to discover the secrets of the bog behind the former's new home. 
***

The Autopsy of Jane Doe meets Predatory Natures by Amy Goldsmith in this tale of folk terror. 

Following an incident at her workplace, professor of psychology Raisa Thorne decides to take a sabbatical at her late great-grandmother's house in North Wales which she has only just inherited. She has a history with this place; back when she was six certain things had happened during a fateful summer that claimed the life of her only aunt. Raisa doesn't remember anything about it, save for a lingering sense of unease. But when she discovers a body in the bog behind the house soon after her return, things start to unravel as Raisa experiences a wealth of uncanny phenomenon. 

Indira Mukherjee is the first coloured police chief in this small Welsh town. No-nonsense and practical, she believes it to be just another murder case when the body in the bog is retrieved. But when strange events happen, some of which get downright bloody, Indira is forced to think beyond the bounds of logic. 

The two women must team up to find the truth; what is it that lies beneath the bog?

Death. What happens after it? What lies beneath the surface? Poor Arielle Daniels stumbled through dangerous hoops to figure this out. She wakes in a new place--the Void--and discovers that what waits after death are layers, dimensions, and sadly... more questions. Even with her new *friend*--that she nicknames THE GHOST, for lack of any other way to describe her--she feels alone, abandoned, afraid. In the living world, Benjamin "Benny" Brooks, knowledgeable in the occult and familiar with paranormal activity, can't crack the mystery behind her death. Or Stella's. Or even... Jade's. He and his FBI agent friend Kylie are on the scene, scraping for clues... and no matter how prepared they think to be, both will get much more than they bargained for. Will Arielle get her ultimate answers, at last? Will she conclude the business that's holding her in the Void? And will Benny finally show the world ghosts are real? • WARNING: this book mentions AND deals with suicide, but DOES NOT endorse it. PLEASE BEWARE. It is rated MATURE for that, among other triggering, sensitive issues. Proceed with caution.

Correction, she loved her father and with the reading of his will, things in her usually calming world have turned upside down, forcing her into finding legal representation. Maya Joshi has just returned from visiting her uncle and his family in Luchang, India, having needed a break in his family operated ski resort and hot springs, and she already has a full case load. The first to pass her desk comes from her aunt-in-law set to retire in the next two months and carries quite a bit of weight. Scheming to deal with the civil litigation out of court, she meets with her new client and is surprised by her immediate attraction. However, given her recent tract record for dating and her constant need for the steady pace professionalism brings to her life, she swears to never act on it. Life may have other plans for both Rose and Maya.

She's dead by the third chapter. Okay, it's a bit more complicated than that. Okay, it's A LOT more complicated than that. Renata wants nothing more than to pay her bills through her mildly boring office job and figure out whether she is still in love with her best friend. The latter half of that desire is just a sneak peak into her messy life-and it's only getting messier. Considering the paranormal world she is about to dive head first into, she will come to realize that figuring out her heart may just be the easiest part of this journey. Well, the endless supply of supernatural hotness in this story may beg to differ-but that's besides the point. Either way, it's gonna be a killer time ;) EXCERPT Chicken tacos it is. Right as Renata grabbed the ingredients, she turned to put them next to the stove, where a clean, plastic cutting board awaited. But as she moved, she was confronted by a stranger, an intruder, standing mere inches from her. Before she could scream, he was on her, slamming her against the fridge. Her back flashed with sharp pain. Her eyes pricked with fear as she drank in his uncovered face. Deeply tanned skin. Ruby red eyes-ruby red eyes? Thick, slashing eyebrows. Flat, broad nose. Buzzcut. Handsome. That was as far as she would go in complimenting him considering this guy held a knife to her throat. When he spoke, his voice came out like thunder. It held a thousand threats and a thousand secrets. It held promise of pain if provoked. "If you scream," he warned, mouth pulled in a slight snarl, "this ends quickly." She didn't dare nod against the blade. He noticed and amusement lit up for just a second in those devilish eyes. Oh, whoever the fuck this was, she already hated him. Considering her predicament, panic was the most prominent emotion coursing through her at the moment. "Good." He removed his hand "Now you're going to answer my questions." °°MATURE AND EXPLICIT CONTENT OF ALL KINDS, AND I MEAN ALL KINDS°

[BOOK ONE OF THE VAMPIRE AND THE GHOST SERIES] She's dead, he's undead. An unusual duo make their way through the modern world, and its modern challenges. Annalise Redwood had spent too much time alone, floating in a centuries old house. The very same house she was murdered in 5 years before. She'd watched people leave, come in, investigate and even squat in this house. Yet none of them stayed long. And more importantly none of them saw her. It was hell, and she swore she was cursed. But this all changes, on the 5th anniversary of her death when a seemingly normal young man walks in. And he sees her. Eugene Cubert was old. Too old. He was done with life, had lived, breathed (well not really) and seen too much for one soul to bare. Quite frankly all he wanted to do was find a nice house to live in and spend the rest of the century comfortably locked away from all of the supernatural and natural. He's visiting his 5th house that day, when he hears it. A woman, screaming to be seen. And then he sees her. And nothings quite the same after that. ---------------------------------------------------- #No.2 in paranormal 3/7/2021 #No.1 in ghost 9/7/2021 #No.8 in murder 2/8/2021 Updates weekly!

Angel Monroe never wanted their attention. But when the wrong glance turns into a challenge, she's pulled into a world of power, danger, and desire that's as twisted as it is addictive. Hate simmers. Tension burns. And the harder she pushes back, the more they seem to want her to break. Some men don't stop at breaking you. They want to own you. And when desire and danger collide, there's no telling who'll break first. Because some obsessions don't end with the night.
