    John Robinson seemed to have it all. A loving wife, two beautiful daughters, and a growing fortune in the 1800's banking industry. That was until a phantom killer slaughtered his family and escaped into the night. Before escaping, John faced his family's killer, but was left with only a distorted memory of who, or what, he saw. 
    Plagued by nightmares of that horrific night, John abandons everything and embarks on a journey into the American West. He is chasing a mysterious and unknown killer on a quest for revenge. But after a decade of coming up empty, a brain tumor is cutting John's life short. It seems his family's killer may never be brought to justice. 
    Years before the murder of John Robinson's family, a legendary bounty hunter, known only as The Vaquero, pursued another monster. The infamous wild west serial killer, Wesley Nelson. Though presumed dead in a wild confrontation, Wesley Nelson's trail of mayhem would echo in the Vaquero's life for years to come. 
    Aided by the ghost (or hallucination) of John's younger brother Jerry, John Robinson and The Vaquero find themselves destined to cross paths and unravel the mystery of a shapeshifting adversary who is stalking the Midwest. 
    Set in an alternate American history, this fast-paced and brutal novel, "The Adversary", blends together genres of horror, science fiction, and the great American Western. It is likely to appeal to readers of Stephen King, Dean Koontz, and fans of true crime.

    "The Willows" is one of Algernon Blackwood's best known and creepiest stories. Many say it is his best and scariest. American horror author H.P. Lovecraft considered it to be the finest supernatural tale in English literature. He wrote in his treatise "Supernatural Horror in Literature", "Here art and restraint in narrative reach their very highest development, and an impression of lasting poignancy is produced without a single strained passage or a single false note." "The Willows" is an example of early modern horror and is connected within the literary tradition of weird fiction. Is it scary? Yes, yes it is.

    This cozy horror novel set in modern-day Toronto includes phenomenal characters, fantastic writing, and a queer romance—the perfect balance of dark and delightful 
     
     
     
    Generations ago, the founders of the idyllic town of Lake Argen made a deal with a dark force. In exchange for their service, the town will stay prosperous and successful, and keep outsiders out. And for generations, it's worked out great. Until a visitor goes missing, and his wealthy family sends a private investigator to find him, and everything abruptly goes sideways. 
     
     
     
    Now, Cassidy Prewitt, town baker and part-time servant of the dark force (it's a family business) has to contend with a rising army of darkness, a very frustrated town, and a very cute PI who she might just be falling for . . . and who might just be falling for her. And if they can survive their own homegrown apocalypse, they might even just find happiness together. 
     
     
     
    Queer, cozy, and with a touch of eldritch horror mixed in just for fun, this is a charming love story about a small-town baker, a quick-witted PI, and, yes, an ancient evil.
