  Second Life: Because the First One is Not Yet Finished tells the story of a love relationship that extends across five hundred years between Emile Chevet, a Benedictine priest, and Justine Foirere, a beautiful peasant girl, who fell deeply in love during the Catholic Church’s brutal 1505 Inquisition. 
  They are found out by the merciless Jean Baptiste Dorembie, Archbishop and Inquisitor of Avignon, taken into custody, and accused of heresy and fornication. Because their love was cut short, they reincarnate five centuries later, determined to explore the promise they made in 1505. 
  Meeting again in 2005 in upstate New York, Jessica Fortin (formerly Justine) arrives in the Emergency Room after a car accident and is treated by Dr. Erik Albright (formerly Emile). Realizing something deeply meaningful is happening between them, they engage in professional hypnosis to explore their previous life together all the while falling more and more in love in current time. 
  The book has received numerous positive reviews for its powerful writing, lush descriptions, and rich storytelling.

  This audiobook is narrated by an AI Voice.   
  The excursion steamer brought us from Constantinople to the shore of the island of Prinkipo and we disembarked. The number of passengers was not large. There was one Polish family, a father, a mother, a daughter and her bridegroom, and then we two. Oh, yes, I must not forget that when we were already on the wooden bridge which crosses the Golden Horn to Constantinople, a Greek, a rather youthful man, joined us. He was probably an artist, judging by the portfolio he carried under his arm. Long black locks floated to his shoulders, his face was pale, and his black eyes were deeply set in their sockets. From the first moment he interested me, especially for his obligingness and for his knowledge of local conditions. But he talked too much, and I then turned away from him.

  Weird things dwell in the hidden corners of Britain: haunted dolls, cunning shapeshifters, monstrous owls, and mad magicians. And there are weird places, too. Beyond the veil of the waking world, lie realms of secrets, domains of madness. 
  So continues the saga, of Peter Van Melsen... 
  The tall, gaunt and mysterious Van Melsen was born out of Ian’s love of occult detective fiction—Algernon Blackwood’s John Silence and William Hope Hodgson’s Thomas Carnacki being among his favourite paranormal investigators.
