Synopsis

Behind the Smiles tells the story of Nene, a teenage girl from the slum, who worked blue-collar jobs with her mother to put food on their table.

Her glittering academic prowess made her dream of a future she thought impossible until the doors of Royal Bliss Academy swung open.

A scholarship, her only hope of a degree, came with a heavy prize: the fate of the school fell on her shoulders and that of another. They must win a competition or she would pay the ultimate prize.

    Jonas is a recluse. He lives in the mountains alone, appreciative of the peace and solitude the wilderness has to offer. It also enables him to keep his unusual line of work a secret. 
    At the behest of mysterious employers, Jonas has been instructed to wear a fur-covered suit and terrorize hikers at a local mountain range, all in an effort to maintain the mythical legend of Bigfoot. While typically uneventful, there are times when a hiker gets too close and the situation becomes...messy. Jonas may not be bloodthirsty, but he always does what's necessary to uphold a certain level of discretion. 
    After several high-profile ‘accidents’ are written off by authorities as bear attacks, tabloid reporter Shirley Codwell notices a pattern and sets out to unravel the truth. Convinced that the killings are the work of a legendary beast, she calls upon the monster hunting community for assistance. The events that transpire are like nothing she could have expected...and will send Jonas running for his life. 
    Set in the Whiteout universe, A Man of the Mountain is a thrilling dark-comic adventure that will keep you turning the pages right through to it's incredible, shocking conclusion.

    I was given the name Paris at birth. 
     
     
     
    So far, I've lived up to it; or rather, down to it. Too pretty, too unfocused, too easy a target. My father even tried to sacrifice me. 
     
     
     
    And then I was saved by a beautiful, haunted man. 
     
     
     
    Mac is a reaper; he delivers lost souls. But when he came for mine, I wouldn't let go. And now I can hear other souls too. I can help him. Love him, if he'll let me. 
     
     
     
    Assuming we survive a conspiracy to bring Chaos through the veil. 
     
     
     
    Mac says souls get what they deserve. If I do enough good, then maybe I can be worthy of his. Maybe I can hold on to him and our bond—forever. 
     
     
     
    Contains mature themes.

    Tommy West is the finest Elvis Presley tribute in the North West of England. At least, that’s what is says on his van. 
    Off stage however, his life is a mess. He can’t pay his rent, his child maintenance is crippling him, and his old Bedford needs new tyres. Tommy is broke, drinks too much Guinness, smokes too much weed and is frightened of his own shadow. 
    So, as Tommy is such a delicate soul, you may ask why, on the first day of lockdown, he finds himself on his way to Folkstone in a borrowed fruit and veg van in the company of a psychotic Rangers fan, a sex starved blonde, a cross dressing navigator and an Afghan slave? 
    Why indeed? 
    All Shook Up is an irreverent look at modern life and pokes a rather sharp stick at political correctness in all its forms.
