    A thriller that's got some humor—until it doesn't. Then it becomes your worst nightmare. 
    Elgin Thomas thought Vietnam would be his escape. Running from a troubled past and horrific nightmares that won't let him sleep, this unlikely hero finds himself deep in the heart of Vietnam's central highland district. 
    Thrust into a corrupt society consumed by chaos and injustice, Elgin discovers that war extracts a price steeper than he ever imagined. The combat is brutal. The choices are impossible. And the nightmares? They're just getting started. 
    During a clandestine mission in Cambodia's deadly killing fields, Elgin comes face-to-face with the dreaded Khmer Rouge. Confronted by his own mortality he faces an impossible choice: abandon his mission and flee, or stay and fight a battle he cannot win. 
    When Elgin is fatally wounded, a bad situation spirals into the unthinkable. What happens next defies explanation—a psychological thriller that transcends the boundaries between life and death, sanity and madness. This YA fantasy fiction with horror elements plunges readers into a bone-chilling depiction of war's realities and a horrifying glimpse into the afterlife, haunting you long after the final page. 
    Beyond Gehenna: Tour of Duty is the explosive first volume of a two-part series—a thriller in 2026 that grabs you from the opening line and doesn't let go. Part war story, part supernatural mystery, this rollercoaster ride barrels toward a surprise ending you won't see coming. 
    Perfect readers who devour psychological thriller books that blur the line between the living and the damned. 
    Fair warning: Not your typical war story, this is what happens when a soldier's battle doesn't end at death—it only gets darker.

    "Why are you here to insult me again!" Moaned Dr. Alexander. 
    "No Astra, Queen of Vampires had a vision on a crime scene!" said Lance. 
    "What's new my granddaughter is a medium!" Dr. Alexander moaned. 
    "But what she saw wasn't real!" said Lance 
    "Then why tell us, if it is not real!" said Dante who was trying to clean the blood off the pages of the bloody papers. 
    "What did she see?" asked Dr. Alexander. 
    "A white raven sitting on a human skull blood running from the nose hole of the skull in a dark place," said Lance turning white. 
    "It means you Dad your symbol is a white raven, the skull symbol of death." 
    "What is that meant to mean?" said Dante. 
    "Blue Midnight is going to die or I am King of the grim reapers!" snapped Blake shortly. 
    "What about the bloody nose?" asked Dante. 
    "Blood of death!" said Lance.

    Arnold Bennett was born in 1867 in Hanley one of the six towns that formed the Potteries that later joined together to become Stoke on Trent; the area in which most of his works are located. For a short time he worked for his solicitor father before realising that to advance his life he would need to become his own man. Moving to London at twenty-one he obtained work as a solicitor’s clerk and gradually moved into a career of journalism. At the turn of the century he turned full time to writing and shortly thereafter in 1903 he moved to Paris and in 1908 published to great acclaim The Old Wives Tale. With this his reputation was set. Clayhanger and The Old Wives Tale are perhaps his greatest and most lauded novels.

    A disturbing and ghoulish tale and acknowledged as one of Lovecraft's best. For many years, the narrator and his uncle, Dr. Elihu Whipple, have nurtured a fascination with an old abandoned house on Benefit Street. Dr. Whipple has made extensive use of records tracking the mysterious, yet apparently coincidental, sickness and death of many who have lived in the house for over one hundred years. They are also puzzled by the strange weeds growing in the yard, as well as an unexplained foul smell and whitish phosphorescent fungi growing in the cellar. There, the narrator discovers a strange, yellowish vapour in the basement, which seems to be coupled with a moldy outline of a huddled human form on the floor. The narrator and his uncle decide to spend the night in the house, investigating the possibility of some supernatural force. They set up both cots and chairs in the cellar, arm themselves with military flamethrowers, and outfit a modified Crookes tube in the hopes of destroying any supernatural presence they might find. What they find is horrible indeed.

    Blending supernatural intrigue with existential mystery, MORI is a haunting story of vanished friends, cryptic messages, and the fragile boundary between reality and the unknown. 
    When four friends vanish without a trace, all that remains is a logbook kept by Mori, a troubled man suspected of their disappearance. His entries reveal a life steeped in regret and self-medication, until a disembodied voice calls out from “across the Cosmic Gulf,” imploring him to help find a missing woman. 
    Fearful he’s losing his grip on reality, Mori embarks on an otherworldly investigation through modern Los Angeles, chasing cryptic symbols and bizarre phenomena, with fleeting moments of wry humor that underscore the deeper emotional stakes at play. Drawn into his quest are an enigmatic neighbor—a radiant yet haunted woman—and her eclectic circle of friends. Each has their own reasons for joining Mori’s strange odyssey, yet none are prepared for the dark truths that await them. 
    Their search leads to a labyrinthine realm of “high strangeness,” where time acts strangely and a mysterious entity seems to observe their every move. At the center of it all lies a sinister figure known only as The LA Lurker. 
    Though it’s the first in The Lost Ones series, MORI can be enjoyed as a gripping standalone. 
    “A thriller that grows stranger, creepier, and more magical throughout. MORI is one of a kind…thoroughly absorbing.” —IndieReader
