Sinopse

When journalist Adam Chapman returns to the village of Little Bassington after inheriting his great aunt’s estate, what he finds at first glance is an English idyll, untouched and unspoiled. The fields are as green as he remembers, the WI still gossip in the Village Hall, and the annual summer fête draws crowds to the Market Square every year.
 
All is well. Until one day. The day it’s announced that they’re going to demolish the old Water Tower.
 
Suddenly, the perfect world of Little Bassington is fractured. Battle lines are drawn and long-buried secrets are on the cusp of being unearthed. The consequences, both professional and personal, that stem from decisions around the Tower’s fate will change the face of a village and the lives of its inhabitants forever.
 
Meanwhile, Adam Chapman – a man running from his own past – is drawn into an unexpected circle of acquaintances: a conflicted PhD student, an ageing art critic, a sympathetic widow, a recovering drug addict... and the woman from the Library to whom each of them will become inextricably linked.
 
The first in Chris Vobe's five-volume epic, 'The Water Tower' is a raw and uncompromising tale of love, loyalty and allegiance, and offers a candid exploration of the way we deal with loss.

    Angel of Death.  
    Black market magic.  
    When you’re Ashira Cohen, smart is the new kickass.  
    When Ash is hired to solve her first murder, it seems like a perfectly normal, open-and-shut case of family feuds and bad blood. Until Ash discovers an evil magical artifact and her lead suspect is of the winged, white-robed, celestial variety. As if that weren't bad enough, if she can't find the perpetrator quickly, fourteen vials of lethal, ghostly magic will be sold to the highest bidder. 
    Her quest to figure out her Jezebel powers and find the shadowy organization responsible for stripping teens of their magic isn't going any smoother, either. Can't a girl just pursue her dream career without getting caught up in a mysterious destiny or playing a dangerous Sherlock-Moriarty game with her annoyingly hot nemesis? 
    But when Ash accidentally crosses the cunning and deadly Queen of Hearts, ruler of the magic black market, all those cases may go unresolved. 
    Permanently.  
    With the clock ticking, it’ll take all of Ash’s intelligence to survive with her moral center–and her head–intact.  
    The game is afoot and failure is not an option. 
    If you love Ilona Andrews' Kate Daniels and Hidden Legacy series, The Jezebel Files delivers clever mysteries, razor-sharp banter, and a heroine who outwits as much as she outfights.

    When a priest in the Vatican's Office of Exorcisms in New York noticed the upheaval that was occurring in American cities after perpetrators of particularly heinous and insidious crimes had been acquitted after trial, something struck him about the dates of those crimes. His research revealed that the crimes all preceded satanic exorcisms he had either witnessed or performed and struck at the very fabric of society. 
    After additional research revealed eerily similar instances had occurred around the world, being an exorcist with a thorough knowledge of the Devil and his works, the priest concluded that Satan was directly responsible for the crimes and the chaos. 
    In America, the Devil had been winning because crimes like those studied by the priest, resulting in criminal trials, were being lost by the prosecution. The reasons for the losses varied from Jurisdiction to jurisdiction. But a closer examination revealed that the Devil had used his wiles to effect both the investigations and trials thus insuring the outcome he desired would be achieved. 
    Once Brooklyn became ground zero for the Evil One, a local prosecutor with the skill, personality, strength and tenacity to take on Satan, to withstand his counter attacks and beat him, was recruited. Michael Gioca, Chief of the Rackets Division in the Brooklyn District Attorney's Office, was handpicked by a secret government agency to be that warrior. 
    With crimes that had actually taken place in Brooklyn and investigated and prosecuted by the author, as the backdrop, Fallen Angel, A True Crime Fantasy, is the story of Gioca's war with Satan.
