MacDonald, the best-selling mystery writer; Jesse Stuart, one of the nation's best regional writers; Karl Edward Wagner, a psychiatrist whose knowledge of the abysses of the mind gives his tales a terror of solid conviction; and William Gilmore Simms, full-grown when Madison was President, one of whose works Poe himself called the best ghost story he'd ever read. These nightmares concern us all. For this is not merely a regional anthology. These stories are set not only in the South, but in the dark heart of man."--Page 4 of cover.

Amid natural disasters and inexplicable vanishings, Thad and Tamara find themselves at the tumultuous center of a titanic battle between love and destruction, waged by forces beyond their control.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Fall under the spell of three otherworldly tales of ancient myth and mystery. THE FOREVER KING by New York Times Bestselling Authors Warren Murphy and Molly Cochran When ten-year-old Arthur Blessing finds a strange antique cup, he has no idea it’s the most sought after object in history. Nor does he realize the discovery of the Holy Grail will take him on a journey that defies the rules of space and time. As the cup’s fate-appointed guardian, Arthur must protect it from dark magic and a madman determined to harness the Grail’s legendary power. The mission threatens his very life, with assassins aligned against him at every turn. DRAGON’S EYE by James A. Hetley The island township of Stonefort, Maine is home to the Morgans, one-time pirates and now shadowy criminals who live by two cardinal rules—protect the family and never foul your own nest. Kate Rowley, part-time town constable and odd-job specialist, is a high-school dropout who solves problems with her muscles and her fists. And Alice Haskell, EMT and emergency room nurse, doubles as the latest Haskell Witch, a Naskeag shaman with power over both whites and First People through her ties with the spirits of Stonefort's land and water. Now an outside power threatens the ancient balance—white and Indian alike, law and lawbreaker alike. THE SUMMER COUNTRY by James A. Hetley Maureen Pierce works the night shift in a convenience store, carries a .38 Smith & Wesson in her pocket, and talks to trees. She knows enough clinical psychology to think that when the trees answer, it proves she's crazy. She can live with that, until the truth reaches out to her on her way home one cold February night: She isn’t truly human. Now her blood heritage drags her from Maine into ancient myth three steps away from the modern world. Camelot is dead. Arthur is dead. Law is dead. Maureen can become either a slave or a mighty witch, but her own dark past may be her worst enemy.

Book excerpt: In Arrivals, Greer, is a woman with THE master plan. After the painful death of her husband and one true love, this successful graphic artist has decided to take a walk on the wild side and date whoever she wants, whenever she wants and will not allow a small thing such as marital status to deter her. Her rules are strict, organized, definitely self-serving and well worth the trouble. Greer has all her bases covered until she meets a man who challenges her game plan. Reba and Doug are happily married but their joyful and peaceful life is interrupted by a mischievous teenager and an ex-husband who won't stay gone. When Reba's ex-husband Johnny threatens to disrupt their happy home, one of Reba's sister friends comes to the rescue with a plan of her own. Her exposure enables Reba and Doug to maintain their blissful existence and ultimately survive the challenges of blending two families. Terri has hired a new housekeeper, Harvey. When she signed on to hire Harvey she had no idea she was also inheriting his drinking problem, his landlord and his incessant phobias. Harvey thinks he's a hot gay blade who has a fantasy that includes exterminating Terri's home of imaginary creatures. Harvey's landlord is clearly taking advantage of him—that is until Terri decides to teach her who the master manipulator really is. Lenora, whom you adored in Bellamy’s novel, Departures has a new occupation. She has founded the Life After Death program for death row inmates who wish to donate their organs. The convicts are all interesting characters in and of themselves—however, their stories are both surprising and shocking. Alas dear Amber has become a typical teenager. When Amber finds out she is in line to inherit a sizeable amount of money, she becomes hell-bent on circumventing her adopted father Horace's involvement and obtaining the money directly. Her plan is to live large and flex a little "bling-bling,” regardless of Horace's objections. Amber misjudges the consequences of going it alone and of course, pays a price she never would have expected. The folks of Departures and Connecting are at it again, but this time with added characters who are just as funny, realistic and down to earth as the originals.
