Sea of Tears

The Keeper of the Dead protects all souls; living and dead.

Newly named Keeper of the Dead, Sondra Carstairs, senses a new threat to the remote Atlantic island of Anona. When a soul reaches out to her from deep within the formless energy of the veil, Sondra receives the confirmation she needs. For when this soul walked among the living, he was a powerful Man of the Sea and her father.

Then Livy Talbot, Sondra’s cousin, arrives on Anona and the threat is revealed: an enemy of the Keeper with the ability to command the sea into a deadly storm. To keep her cousin alive, Sondra follows her instincts—and her father’s guidance—and banishes the storm. In doing so, she reveals her own strength to this faceless islander that sends storms easily from the shadows.

When this islander reveals an additional ability to steal another’s soul, Sondra has to figure out who this islander is—and why they are determined to push Anona into the Land of the Dead, from where none will return.

One Step Away

John Kenton, a young man caught between limiting parental guidance and an imagination fired by hidden meaning, is killed one evening by a lorry as he cycles home from school along the icy roads of his West Yorkshire village.

Death provides a choice to go with a catcher to his next stage in life in the afterworld or remain ‘between worlds’, closer to his home and his reality. This is a world of denial and conflict, populated by those fearing judgement of their lives on Earth, the Leaves. Before going with the catcher, an ancient link forges a connection between him and one such Leaf, Simon, kindling a quest that he must somehow free him from his own misjudgement.

Embarking on a journey of self-discovery, he learns how the afterworld is structured and organised and meets others like him. This reunites him with his partner, who like him is descended from an apparently extinct and mythical bloodline. She awakens him to their love and journeys together, spanning almost five hundred years.

Past life times and true identity revealed, he and his friends are brought into conflict with the Leaves who hold Simon and torment his family still living on Earth.

“Just because the war is over, doesn’t mean the story is.”

What happens after a 10-year war? Unity brought the Mortal, Fire, Ice and Earth Nations together to defeat Skull, a pirate army desperate to merge the supernatural world with the mortal.

19-year-old Azar Geminus finds himself at the centre of a bizarre, supernatural mystery. With the war at an end, and his heart broken, his only goal is to reunite with his parents. But this proves more challenging than expected when he learns that they have gone missing. Whilst the city he has lived in all his life begins to expose the darkness that dwells within, Azar finds himself changing in ways he cannot control.

As one war ends, another, much more personal, is just beginning. And when the fate of the Nations rests on lies, who else can he rely on other than himself?

Oberon

Not to mention she seems to possess some unnatural, or should I say supernatural, traits. Nil is learning a lifetime of lessons in the span of weeks.

As ominous forces loom, the fate of the world and her existence is at stake.

Will Nil be able to save everyone she cares about, or will things be completely out of her control?

Mosquito Story

For too long mosquitoes, mozzies for short, have been the subject of unjustified persecution, ridicule and scorn. They suffer the humiliation of being an evolutionary mistake, sent to torment and plague humans. Good for nothing, unwanted! Tainted by a reputation of being diseased, blood-sucking pests. This book seeks to rectify that misconception in an adventurous and humourous way. Every mozzie has a story to tell!
This unique and quirky story is full of life and death, love and hate, work and fun, ups and downs, following the day-to-day adventures of a mozzie community living next to a fish pond in a suburban front yard. This book will capture your imagination and redefine the readers’ preconceptions of mosquitoes. After reading the book, you will momentarily pause and reflect, prior to swatting the next mosquito that settles on your arm.

Morten: The Xahlia Tale

There is something peculiar about Morten and the people who called this place home. Each of the six tribes is protected by their own arcane religion and ordained gift.

A threat from overseas threatens to swallow Morten whole. When the Xanthari tribe loses one of their elite commanders, Xianni, to the enemy, their foundations are shaken as they are forced to form an unlikely alliance with the Dahlia tribe to protect themselves from the impending threat of war. Despite their extensive history of odium and reprisal the forces are compelled to unite.

Xander, a high ranking official of the Xanthari clan and Xianni’s lover, must overcome his grief and lead the Xantharis alongside Xana, Xianni’s best friend, who fills her boots in more than one way. Betrayal and adultery shake the foundations of the alliance and the commanders of both tribes find themselves each fighting their own battle.

A Xanthari relic – four pieces of parchment – become the object of pursuit of the allies and enemies alike as they fight to the death.

Misanthropy

I am in love with someone, someone who is kind and caring.

He comforts me, protects me and makes me feel complete.

Okay, he may have stalked me for a little while without my knowledge, but I did not know at the time, so can look beyond that.

He knows me better than I know myself.

I am an open book to him, despite keeping my feelings closed.

The only problem is… is that he is not from around here…

But why should that matter?

Why should that matter… the word ‘matter’ means more to me now than it ever did!

He is not from around here, because he inhabits our parallel dimension of dark matter.

Dark matter, the substance that science proves exists, yet is unable to explain.

His kind, is what we humans refer to as jinns, spirits or demons…

Should it matter now?

Either way, it is too late…

Mia's Blackbird

Mia Gretel Augustus, not a lick over 44 and preceded as she walks by a sharp blonde quiff, is living a safe and dependable life on the coast as she manages an odd gift.

Since her brother’s death, she has seen people’s souls and helped them heal. But what about her own soul and healing?

The appearance of a blue-eyed stranger in six-inch heels and a pencil skirt plunges Mia back into the world of the living again. She feels her skin scrape against splintering wood, heart puff into pink like a swollen starfish, and soul crash and burst as a cresting green wave.

But will sharing herself and her gift mark the end of their love?

And what does the emergence of Mia’s wisdom mean for her future?
