    Two billion people are about to die… and they’re the lucky ones. 
    When a man in a hospital gown jumps to his death from the Western Wall in Israel, the authorities think it’s just another victim of Jerusalem Syndrome: a religious psychosis triggered by a visit to the holy city. 
    But when a second victim ritually disembowels himself, it’s the sign of much worse to come. Thanatos — a fanatical group dedicated to the destruction of the world — is on the move again. 
    The only ones who can stop them are ex-Israeli military psychologist, Oxford professor, and religious expert Morgan Sierra; and Jake Timber, agent of ARKANE, the British agency tasked with investigating — and sometimes saving the world from — the supernatural. 
    Last time, Morgan and Jake worked together to stop Thanatos from bringing about a dark version of Pentecost. This time, Thanatos is mixing science with sacrilege — combining the Devil’s Bible with mind-control technology to murder a quarter of the human race. 
    Together, Morgan and Jake will travel from the hallowed halls of Oxford, to the labs of a biotech company with a dark agenda, to a chapel made of human bones. They’ll go anywhere, do anything, to stop Thanatos. 
    But they have to hurry. 
    Thanatos is on the rise. Apocalypse is at the gates. And the only way to save a quarter of the world is for Morgan to uncover the secrets of her past… at the cost of her own future. Death awaits in a Crypt of Bone. 
    Crypt of Bone is book 2 in the ARKANE thriller series but it can be listened to as a stand-alone story.

    He may only have one eye, but it adores her . . . he just doesn't know it yet. 
     
     
     
    Reece Spencer became a monster after a Halloween party gone wrong, but instead of letting it ruin his life, he dedicated his life to monsters. After selling his portion of a successful investment firm, he funded the creation of a college for monsters just outside the monstrous little town of Screaming Woods. 
     
     
     
    This is his life now, trying to help monsters live as normally as possible, and nothing could disrupt that except for one new student who sets his entire world off-kilter: Kamila Letreuc, his former business partner's daughter. 
     
     
     
    The last time he saw her, she was a grieving seventeen-year-old, and now she's blossomed into a gorgeous woman. He may only have one eye, but he can tell how beautiful she is. Too bad she's off-limits. 
     
     
     
    When Kamila's father asks him to keep his eye on her, Reece makes a promise that soon becomes personal. 
     
     
     
    Now he's got an injured Kamila staying in his house, flouncing around in his clothing, and keeping his eye and hands off her is increasingly difficult—not to mention that someone is out to kill his gorgeous little half-dryad. 
     
     
     
    Contains mature themes.

    A love story called My Hell was inspired by my Muse, and many of the poets I have studied. It was originally written to be a narrated stage play. In this Narrative epic Love Story there are hidden messages that only your subconscious will perceive. I wrote this epic story with the intent to show the moral of the story, "Love Conquers All." The story is about a  journey through Hell and many personal confrontations with Satan himself. This is one Journey through Hell you will never forget. Welcome to My Hell.
