  This audiobook is narrated by an AI Voice.   
  When folklorist Arthur Ashworth inherits a decaying London townhouse, he uncovers more than just ancestral secrets. Ashworth House stands upon a Nexus Point where the Tenebrous Veil between worlds is dangerously thin, and a primeval cosmic entity, the Bone Collector, strains to break through. 
  As shadowy hounds and grief-devouring spirits plague the gaslit streets, Arthur learns of the Umbral Covenant, a powerful occult society led by the enigmatic Lord Thorne. They are orchestrating a grand ritual during the Noctis Major alignment, seeking to tear open the Veil and unleash unimaginable horror upon an unsuspecting city. Aided by the tenacious journalist Eleanor Vance, Arthur must delve into forbidden Lamplighter lore and confront his own family’s terrifying legacy of madness. 
  With the apocalyptic ritual looming, Arthur’s desperate gambit to activate an ancient protective ward may be London’s only hope – or the key to his own damnation beneath the Veil of the Bone Collector. Can he seal the breach before all is lost to ancient, unknowable evil?

  You need more Sherlock? You love the stories of The Canon but you want more ... more stories that are similar to the original sixty. You have come to the right place.
  The Adventure of the Tea-Stained Diamonds:
  He was not much more than a child. I estimated his age at fourteen. He was a handsome boy, with the raven-black hair and deeply tanned skin color that marks a person who came from the lands under the Raj. His young body was beginning to show the signs of an emerging well-made sportsman. From his place, lying on his back on the pavement, his dark-brown eyes stared up at the morning sky ... lifeless. Behind his head was a pool of blood, now darkened and congealed.

  It is 2028. President Trump has just finished his third term and is about to be elected to a fourth. America has become increasingly isolationist and xenophobic. Emboldened by the President’s support, the New American Party has gained power and become a controlling minority. Cloaking its policies in the increasing need for national security, the President and his new party work to remake America in the image they desire, focusing their efforts on personal freedoms and immigration. 
  St. Louis police officer Ryan Derrick struggles to remain true to his ideals as he sees the best of his country seeming to slip away. His wife Nathalie is a frequent target for the subtle machinations of the party, since she is both a journalist and a foreigner. When tragedy strikes the family, their battle for freedom becomes even more urgent. 
  Alexander Derrick is a California state senator caught up in the midst of an anti-federalist movement and trying desperately to ride the line of balance between remaining true to his country and to his own integrity. Leaned on heavily by the Governor, he becomes instrumental in guiding the state on its path toward reconciliation or secession. 
  An Unlikely Phoenix follows both brothers in their journey during a perilous alternative near-future. The story is punctuated by excerpts from a history book penned in 2081, giving glimpses of the prevailing view from the more distant future. 
  This novel is part near-future, sci-fi alternate history, part action, political crime thriller, part social and political commentary, and part satire, all the while exploring an alternative future in which white nationalism has risen from the ashes of history in the most unlikely of places—the United States of America.
