Beschreibung

A boy and his dog face a deadly small-town secret in this haunting coming-of-age horror novel. Brighton Falls is a typical small town, with its bad baseball team, clean sidewalks, and nosy neighbors. But that all changes when someone’s pet is brutally killed, and other animals start going missing. When young Tommy Watson’s dog Artie falls gravely ill, the middle schooler sets out to save his canine friend—and begins to unravel an evil, small-town secret that goes back centuries . . .  With a community on edge and time running out, it’s up to Tommy—and his dog—to finally put the menace to rest. But as his courage and love are put to the test, he’ll have to make the hardest decision of his life.

    In Dedra L. Stevenson's first horror thriller, a young woman unleashes a terror in the form of a dark entity upon her life. Unlike Stevenson's work in Fantasy Fiction and Courtroom Drama, The Skinwalker: Resurrection promises psychological thrills like no other—a dark spirit, a possession, a hidden identity, a love story, the mighty tribe of the Navajo, and a finale that will surprise you. 
      
    Shortly after the discovery of a mysterious book of witchcraft spells in her home, Carmella unknowingly invites something sinister into her world, a long-deceased Navajo skinwalker, and this skinwalker wants to walk the Earth in human flesh again. The witch's faithful servant follows each step that Carmella takes as he serves his Mistress. 
      
    Slowly but surely, she falls prey to the darkness, and only the tribe is left to help her. With the support of her friends and the man that she loves, she is taken to the reservation and a traditional ceremony ensues. Carmella becomes the mortal captive of Haseeya, the Skinwalker witch, and the tribe must ask for the help of an ancient force from the stars.

    Mary Wollstonecraft Godwin was born on the 30th August 1797 in Somers Town, London. 
     
    Her mother, the famous feminist philosopher, educator, and writer Mary Wollstonecraft died when Mary was only 11 days old and she was raised by her father, the philosopher, novelist, journalist, and perpetually in debt, William Godwin. 
     
    Though Mary received little formal education her father taught her a broad range of subjects and added to her bright and curious personality she easily absorbed a good and broad education. 
     
    In July 1814, after conducting a secret affair with the poet Percy Bysshe Shelley, who had earlier promised to pay off yet another round of her father’s business debts, the pair eloped to France.  Within two months, penniless and pregnant they returned to England. 
     
    Her husbands’ affairs caused her frequent heartbreak but despite all the travails, including the loss of her own child, Shelley’s recent inheritance gave them the opportunity to journey again to Europe. 
     
    It was here that ‘Frankenstein’ was born and established Mary’s own name in literature. 
     
    Her life hereafter was plagued with loss; the death of two further children and then her husband in a boating accident.  Her writing continued through novels, travel pieces and biographies.  Her short stories, some based in Europe, tackle difficult situations and genres as well the obstacles that women were burdened with in society.  Her editorship of her late husband’s poetry was also widely praised.   
     
    Mary’s radical politics continued to guide her journey throughout her life but, by 1840, illness had begun to haunt her years, depriving her of energy and vigour.  
     
    Mary Shelley died on the 1st February 1851, at Chester Square, London of a suspected brain tumour.  She was 53.

    Haunted by footsteps that never show their source and letters signed by a phantom stranger, Captain Barton’s quiet return to Dublin society descends into psychological torment. The Watcher is a chilling Gothic tale of spiritual vengeance, unrepentant guilt, and the inescapable shadow of the past.

Narrated with creeping tension by Michael Lyons, The Watcher is a tale of dread and justice—unseen but always present.
