Grace's Private War

Axel I. Carver

Sinossi

Behind the manor's walls, a mother's love becomes a prison. As war rages outside, a more dangerous battle unfolds within. Some protection is more deadly than the enemy.
 
The fog rolls across Jersey's countryside as Grace Blackwood faces her greatest fear: her husband's conscription to World War II. Within the grand Blackwood manor, she creates a fortress of prayer and strict routine, convinced she can keep her children safe from the world's evils. But as the weeks turn to months, Grace's protective instincts twist into something darker. Her children, Alice and Peter, watch as their mother transforms their once-warm home into a shadowy sanctuary of religious devotion. The manor itself seems to change, its familiar corners harboring new threats, its shadows deepening with each passing day. When Peter begins speaking of a mysterious visitor in the darkness, Grace's obsession reaches new heights. Can she save her children's souls before her own demons consume them all? Grace's Private War is a mesmerizing historical fiction by Axel Carver that delves deep into the human psyche. If you're drawn to haunting atmospheres, psychological complexity, and richly layered historical drama, you'll be spellbound by Carver's masterful tale of faith and madness.

The Apocalypse Rebellion

Nick Vossen

For fans of Simone St. James

A devious doomsday cult is leading civilization to the brink of extinction.


Now when they are needed most, Lilly and Quincy Swansong are worlds apart—both physically and mentally. However, they must set aside their personal struggles for one last time to deal with an ancient evil corrupting the hearts of mankind. Or they'll die trying.


Luckily, the twins are not alone. Across the entire globe, those too strong for Haven's brainwashing and too fond of the Earth are stoking the flames of rebellion. Unlikely alliances are made, and help arrives from distant places: from beneath the sea, from inside the earth, from the afterlife, and from the spaces between worlds. 


As Lilly, Quincy, and their friends dive into Europe's darkest corners in search of answers, four individuals rise to lead the Apocalypse Rebellion. But who are these mysterious four, and can they be trusted?


Yet even greater mysteries are afoot. Why is the resurrected corpse of Witchfynder General Matthew Hopkins possessed? And what supernatural event did the late Emily and Tobias Swansong really experience years ago?


Lilly and Quincy must piece the puzzle together before it's too late.

The Mandeville Shadow - Totally...

Callie Langridge

“Bewitching! I was so into this series that I lost track of time… Everything was perfect – emotions, heartbreak, drama and long-lost memories.” Reader review, ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

1935. Kate Durrant is helping her mother move out of the little cottage her parents used to share, until her father’s heartbreaking death. Full of guilt that she couldn’t visit her dad in his last moments, Kate now has only memories for company. Memories and… something else. Since she was a small child, Kate has been able to see and feel the history of objects she touches. She’s always kept her gift secret, not knowing fully what it is, or how far it goes.

One evening, while visiting her father’s grave, Kate wanders into the shadowy woods behind the church. Following the mossy paths, she realises she’s lost her way just as she stumbles upon the wrought-iron gates of Hill House, home to the illustrious Mandeville family.

Welcomed in and offered a position on the staff as a housemaid, Kate discovers that all is not right within the walls of the splendid manor house. As her gift begins to unspool the history of the Mandeville’s home, she realises that an unspeakable tragedy is fated to befall the family heir. Kate also grows increasingly close to Bertie Morrison, the Estate Manager who has known Hill House his whole life. With the family oblivious to their desperate peril, Bertie helps Kate understand her deepening connection to the Mandevilles.

With Halloween approaching – when the veil between worlds is at its thinnest – a special visitor from the house’s past appears just as a shadow falls over Hill House.

The clock is ticking… will Kate's unique gift, combined with the strength of a new love and a timeless love from beyond the grave, be enough to save the Mandeville legacy?
