Living Ink: Ascension - A Novel

R.H. Deans

Sinossi

When an alien species reaches from an otherworldly dimension, Ranzum's crew is forced to solve the dangerous mystery of a deserted space station ... Can they make it out alive? Drifting in space with no destination and limited fuel, Brian Ranzum and his crew are thankful to find a large space station nearby. They acquire permission to board and retrieve supplies for the trip back home, but upon entry, no one is there to greet them. The crew is forced to search the barren station for supplies alone, where they face uncooperative doors, lighting blackouts, and even an odd visual programming that creates their life-like drawings on the ceilings drawn in pitch, black ink. Their quest takes them further into the station's labyrinth-like depths, and what started as a search for supplies becomes a battle of survival as the crew discovers the hidden mysteries that are buried within the recesses of the station.Living Ink: Ascension is a psychological thriller that will take its readers to the edge of reality and beyond.

Crypt of Bone

J.F. Penn

Two billion people are about to die… and they’re the lucky ones.
When a man in a hospital gown jumps to his death from the Western Wall in Israel, the authorities think it’s just another victim of Jerusalem Syndrome: a religious psychosis triggered by a visit to the holy city.
But when a second victim ritually disembowels himself, it’s the sign of much worse to come. Thanatos — a fanatical group dedicated to the destruction of the world — is on the move again.
The only ones who can stop them are ex-Israeli military psychologist, Oxford professor, and religious expert Morgan Sierra; and Jake Timber, agent of ARKANE, the British agency tasked with investigating — and sometimes saving the world from — the supernatural.
Last time, Morgan and Jake worked together to stop Thanatos from bringing about a dark version of Pentecost. This time, Thanatos is mixing science with sacrilege — combining the Devil’s Bible with mind-control technology to murder a quarter of the human race.
Together, Morgan and Jake will travel from the hallowed halls of Oxford, to the labs of a biotech company with a dark agenda, to a chapel made of human bones. They’ll go anywhere, do anything, to stop Thanatos.
But they have to hurry.
Thanatos is on the rise. Apocalypse is at the gates. And the only way to save a quarter of the world is for Morgan to uncover the secrets of her past… at the cost of her own future. Death awaits in a Crypt of Bone.
Crypt of Bone is book 2 in the ARKANE thriller series but it can be listened to as a stand-alone story.

Thirteen

H. Ferdosy

A discovered conspiracy. A ransom gone wrong. A two-month coma. 
Spoiled Iranian girl Neda awakes to find her parents dead—a tragic murder at the hands of her now-executed fiancé. But Neda saw the perpetrators, and he wasn’t one of them. 
The justice system dismisses her. Evidence mysteriously vanishes. And when others begin to die, she knows her own life could end just as brutally at any moment. All it will take is her enemies catching up—or her suicidal tendencies taking control. When her losses become all-consuming, there is one way forward: turn the tables and finally get revenge. 
When the only option is to kill or be killed, one thing is clear: this war will end in blood.
