Sure enough, one of those gifted remote viewers (RVs), a post-cognoscente, views his daughter, Kayleigh, shortly after the kidnapping. While another RV, a pre-cognoscente, views a scenario where Dr. Blackhorse is delivering the strange ransom the kidnapper has demanded. To compound Dr. Blackhorse’s troubles, FBI Special Agent Ty Guard, who has been ‘unofficially’ tasked with protecting the View Tech company and its teams, wants to know why the whole View Tech organization has been called out at midnight on a Friday night. How can Blackhorse explain and not reveal the kidnapping? Then, a third multi-gifted young RV views a scenario where Dr. Blackhorse is shot by the kidnapper after delivering the ransom. This view is accompanied by the most unbelievable paranormal event ever documented by any parapsychology team.

Oh, yes, and Dr. Blackhorse and his loyal, dedicated staff is the entity most capable of dealing with it. Watch the View Tech geniuses as they innovate, and scheme to thwart the kidnapper, even behind Blackhorse’s back if necessary. Then Blackhorse and company are targeted by a cold-blooded, psychotic killer followed closely by the CIA. And yes, there is even time for true love. This is “Remote View.”

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: World War I battlefield nurse Bess Crawford's career and life are in jeopardy when a murder is committed on her watch, in this absorbing and atmospheric historical mystery from New York Times bestselling author Charles Todd Arriving in London on leave, Bess Crawford receives an unusual summons from the War Office. She's been requested to accompany a wounded soldier to Buckingham Palace, where he's to be decorated for gallantry by King George himself. Though she is certain she's never met or nursed Sergeant Jason Wilkins, she cannot refuse the honor. Heavily bandaged and confined to a wheelchair, the soldier will be in her care for barely a day. But on the morning after the ceremony when Bess goes to collect her charge for his return journey, she finds the room empty. How could such a severely wounded man simply vanish without a trace? Both the Army and the Nursing Service hold Bess to blame for losing the war hero. There is a humiliating inquiry, and the incident is noted in her record. More disturbing news complicates her already difficult situation: The Army now considers Wilkins a deserter, and Scotland Yard questions her when Wilkins is suspected of killing a man in cold blood. If Bess is to clear her name and return to duty in France, she must prove that she was never his accomplice. But the sergeant has disappeared again and neither the Army nor the police can find him. The moral implications—that a patient in her charge has committed murder—become more important to Bess than her own future. Accom-panied by her friend Simon Brandon, she heads north to find the missing man herself. Carefully questioning suspicious locals, Bess and Simon follow a trail of clues across England. Drawn into a mystery that seems to grow darker with every discovery, they realize that this man has brought the war home to remote places far from the killing fields of France. But will uncovering the truth put more innocent people in jeopardy?

John Felton meets evil late one Monday morning when the doorbell rings. Standing on the front porch is a stranger. He wears expensive running shoes and a baseball cap and calls himself Richie. He tells John his car has stalled and asks for help. An altercation at the gas station leads to a shocking crime as violence begets violence. At the end of this harrowing day, John returns home to find Richie ensconced in his living room, chatting up his wife. The evil has somehow seeped into his life. Thus begins the transformation of an unremarkable husband and father of two into a desperate man willing to go to any length to protect his family from the darkness that threatens them. This is an extraordinary masterpiece and a chilling portrait of mounting menace played out against an everyday world of domestic routine, personified in a protagonist of basic decency grappling with both the immediate and existential meaning of true evil. Now a major motion picture starring Samuel L. Jackson and Luke Wilson.
