The Ghosts of Sand Island Lighthouse

Tim D. Smith

Sinossi

During a summer in the community of Fort Morgan, Alabama, Sam and Dex, along with their newfound friend and soon-to-be crush Mac, begin to realize ghosts inhabit the area, and the spirits are not only frightening, they’re bent on destruction. After finding a cryptic message left by Sam’s now deceased grandfather, the trio realizes they may be the only ones who stand in the way of the ghoulish General’s vile and fiendish plans.
 
Every other chapter early in the book tells the true story of the untimely demise of some of the future ghosts in the area around Fort Morgan and Dauphin Island. As the ghosts manifest to our characters, Sam realizes that clues and a trinket (that in reality is a talisman) left behind by his grandfather may have been provided to prevent a takeover by the evil spirits.
 
With little hope battling the evil entities, the General steals Grandma’s dog, McRuff, in the hope of luring our heroes into what he believes will be a gruesome ending, and as a hurricane approaches the trio battles not only the ghosts but mother nature in a fight for not only Fort Morgan and Gulf Shores but also their lives.

All of Your Dreams Will Come...

John Wayne Comunale

The culling took most of the men from Cochran Texas away to a dusty old town that exists between this plane and the next called Cocytus. Run by a maniacal power-hungry man named Lycus and his adopted proté gé daughter Alastor, he conducts chaos with the help of a group of bandits called Calamity Three. His goal: tip the cosmic scales to bring the Void crashing into the world and claim the place of power to which he believes he is owed. Loyalty is a flimsy commodity in Cocytus, and with Behemoth rushing from the celestial abyss to heed a distant call this small Texas town nestled somewhere between here and hell has no idea what's in store.

Blood Like Mine

Stuart Neville

On a snowy December night, single mother Rebecca Carter drives her van into a snowbank to avoid hitting an elk on a desolate mountain highway. She is at the end of her rope, out of money and food. Still, she refuses help from a man in a pickup truck—Rebecca’s adolescent daughter, Moonflower, is on the run from a grisly secret, and the last thing they can afford is to be remembered by anyone they meet. 
 
Meanwhile, Special Agent Marc Donner of the FBI has spent the better part of two years hunting down a gruesome serial killer who drains victims of blood before severing their spinal cords, leaving a trail of bodies throughout the country. As Agent Donner’s investigation brings him closer and closer to where Rebecca and Moonflower are hiding out, in the foothills of Colorado, the life that Rebecca has fought so hard to hold together for her daughter becomes increasingly imperiled.  
 
In this deadly, high-stakes game of cat and mouse, nobody is safe and nothing is certain—not even the line between predator and prey.

Black Magic by Sydney Horler

Sydney Horler

Sydney Horler (1888-1954) was one of the popular British writers of the first half of the twentieth century. Although he never quite reached critical acclaim, his books sold by the millions. His most famous creation was a British Agent called Tiger Standish, a precursor to Ian Fleming’s James Bond.  
But this story, narrated by Michael Henrik Wynn, the editor of the educational net radio stream Historyradio.org, is a young adult horror story that manages to be sufficiently scary - with a gleam in its eye. It features satanism, attempted murder and contains considerable humour.  
The music at the start and at the end of the audiobook comes from Kwartet Japoński I by Maciej Żołnowski distributed by musopen.org.
