  Margo has spent most of her life without a family, and with a telekinetic gift she can't quite explain. Since losing her mother, she's felt more alone than ever. When her fiancé Sam takes her to his remote Iowa hometown to meet his family and begin planning their wedding, Margo finally begins to feel like she's home. But the feeling doesn't last long, and Margo soon feels out of place. Sam's family is different from what she'd expected. Not only is their obsession with a deceased televangelist unsettling, but Margo has begun seeing a mysterious figure from her past—a figure that she thought was put to rest with her mother's passing. 
   
  As Sam's family begins to take over the wedding plans, Margo tries to regain some control by turning to the town's sole wedding planner, who soon becomes her only confidant, perhaps because she reminds Margo of her former love. But the more Margo tries to distance her past from her future with Sam, the deeper his family pulls her in, forcing upon her generationally archaic traditions that border on ritualistic. As Margo unearths the family's dark web of secrets, she begins to suspect that she may have been brought here for a reason, and it may cost her her life. 
   
  The Ever End takes elevated horror to a new level with a queer, twisted, feminist story that will keep listeners guessing until the end.

  An adventure story featuring thunderstorms in the background.
   
  The Forgotten Expedition
  by Hank Wilson tells the story of a group of Spanish explorers who disappeared
  from the official records. They were a product of their time. Their story
  actually begins in 1598, when one of the most brutal of all of the Spanish
  governors in what is now New Mexico came into power. Juan de Oñate brought in
  approximately 400 settlers and built a settlement named San Juan de los
  Caballeros. His real purpose was not to establish a new colony but to locate the
  legendary treasure of Quivira. He started searching for the treasure in 1601,
  he never did locate it and his missions to find gold and treasure were
  fruitless. His legacy does, however, include perhaps the most inhumane
  treatment of the Pueblo peoples in the area, and he left office in 1607 in
  disgrace. He was found guilty of cruelty, immorality, and false reporting, and
  he was exiled from the colony, fined, and deprived of his titles. 
   
  This story takes place
  approximately 4 years after Onate’s departure. New Mexico has a new governor, Governor
  Don Pedro de Peralta. He has authorized an expedition to explore more of what
  is now the Trans-Pecos region of the American Southwest. While the story is
  fictional, the people’s involved all either could have or did exist during this
  period. This story is built around excerpts from the journal of Fray Miguel De
  La Garza as he recorded the events that took place during the group’s
  exploration of an unknown territory.
   
  Those who found the
  journal noted the closing entry “I recorded this for the benefit of those who
  are to come. I have tried to be faithful to what we saw and did. May God have
  mercy on our souls. Fray Miguel De La Garza. December 1611”
