  Before Bubba Ho-Tep, there was Bubba and the Cosmic Blood-Suckers. 
  Part of a secret government organization designed to protect civilians, Elvis Presley and a handful of hardcore warriors set out to save the world from an invasion of hive-minded, shape-shifting vampire-like creatures from a dark dimension who have taken up residence in a New Orleans junkyard.  
  Besides Elvis, among these righteous warriors is a hammer-wielding descendent of John Henry of railroad fame, a blind man who sees more than those with sight, Jack, a strategic wizard, and Elvis’s right hand man and journal writer, Johnny, all thrown in with Raven (real name Jenny) a female recruit who is also a budding pop star, and like Elvis, high on the charisma chart.  
  Their leader is none other than Colonel Parker, Elvis’s cutthroat manager, and a warrior himself, directly in contact with President Nixon, or possibly one of his doubles. 
  It’s an unnerving peek into a secret world, and a possible delusion. It’s what happened before Elvis, aka Sebastian Haff, found himself in an East Texas rest home, mounted on a walker, fighting an Egyptian mummy and worrying about a growth on his pecker.  
  Strange monsters, wild fights, sex with a beautiful ghost, a drug-induced trip into another dimension, and all manner of mayhem ensue, along with a Mississippi riverboat ride on a giant paddle wheel, and of course, there will be 3D glasses, fried peanut butter and ’nanna sandwiches, and a few hard-working zombies.  
  Bring the kids, but plug their ears and blindfold them. This is one wild and nasty ride to the dark side, but with laughter.

  With two family members in Maddy's care, Detective Drew McNeil finds himself wondering frequently during his visits about the woman and not just the miracle worker. Who takes care of this selfless soul who gives everything she has to save every single patient? When does she ever allow herself to rest, relax, and live? The more time he spends with her, the more he wants to get to know her privately.

If so, Maddy's directly in the path of danger.

  On a small island in a remote corner of northwest Scotland lies Maundrell castle, owned by its wealthy namesake family for centuries—until now. Edwina Nunn is shocked to learn a relative she never heard of has bequeathed the castle and its land to her. What awaits Edie and her teenage daughter, Neve, is even more startling, for the castle is home to a multitude of ghosts. 
   
   
   
  Yet there's a strange beauty in the austere architecture and the eerie, bloody waters of Loch na Scáthanna, the Lake of Shadows. Beguiled by a frightened ghost who gazes longingly out of the castle's windows, Edie and Neve are drawn to the legends shrouding the island and the mystery of the Maundrell Red—a priceless diamond that disappeared decades before. 
   
   
   
  Is the gem really cursed, and the cause of the family tragedies that have all occurred on Samhain—Scottish Halloween? As Samhain approaches once more, Edie and Neve race to peel back the dark secrets entwining the living and the dead—a twisted story of bitter cruelty and hidden love—or they will become another Maundrell tragedy trapped in the lonely hours . . .

  Death is not an escape. It is a jurisdiction. 
  When Magistrate Percival Russell wakes up with a bullet hole in his chest and a barcode branded into his arm, he finds himself in the Echelon—a sterile, frictionless afterlife governed by absolute, merciless logic. Stripped of his title and relegated to Rank 9, Percival faces the ultimate prosecution: the Trial of Compelled Witness. To survive, he plans to do what he does best—build a flawless legal defense and outwit the system's bureaucratic tribunal. 
  But the Echelon doesn't care about justice; it only measures submission. And Percival’s meticulously constructed defense is shattered when he is confined with Beatrix Blythe, a chaotic, battle-scarred revolutionary who would rather endure agonizing physical corrections than bow to a faceless machine. 
  The Verdict of Unranked Things is a harrowing plunge into a dystopian afterlife. Blending LitRPG progression mechanics with psychological horror and gothic fantasy, this dark, gripping tale forces two polar opposites to rely on each other. As the system strips away their sanity and exploits their deepest traumas, Percival and Beatrix must venture into the decaying, surface-adjacent zones of the underworld to find a loophole in a game designed to erase them. 
  Will Percival cling to the rigid laws that defined his life, or embrace the chaos needed to save his soul?
