Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Destiny! Fate! Sarah didn’t believe that life was contributable to these uncontrollable forces, but to the choices of human beings, and a very real and loving God. Although still single, she believed that God’s plan for her included marriage and a family with her as a pastor’s wife or hopefully, the wife of a foreign missionary. Her prayers for this very special man and their service together were more than a decade old. She saw no likely candidates, but trusted God with her life. So, Sarah lived her life in the moment serving God and looking for the joy God provided in each day. That joy now found her on a dream vacation in Toledo, Spain where she had fallen in love with the culture, the people, and the city. She had little more than a day left on her vacation and used her unscheduled time to visit an art gallery near her hostel where she met Fillip. They had a few hours together before Sarah dashed back to the safety of her familiar life. Vacation Sarah was little threat to Satan in Toledo even if her witness did win one man to the Enemy. The salvation of this waiter was an incidental note on the demon Warning’s report to his Master. But, Sarah doesn’t stay in her room and Fillip isn’t a man to give up easily. Warning, Satan's demon observer, reports to his Master that Sarah is becoming a real threat to Satan’s plans. Demons are ordered to intervene, but Sarah’s angels don’t leave her defenseless. Is God working and answering prayers? Will the assigned demons keep Sarah from a future with Fillip who is not saved and who has distanced himself from God?

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The dramatic and deliciously swashbuckling story of Sarah Kidd, the wife of the famous pirate Captain Kidd, charting her transformation from New York socialite to international outlaw during the Golden Age of Piracy Captain Kidd was one of the most notorious pirates to ever prowl the seas. But few know that Kidd had an accomplice, a behind-the-scenes player who enabled his plundering and helped him outpace his enemies. That accomplice was his wife, Sarah Kidd, a well-to-do woman whose extraordinary life is a lesson in reinvention and resourcefulness. Twice widowed by twenty-one and operating within the strictures of polite society in seventeenth- and eighteenth-century New York, Sarah secretly aided and abetted her husband, fighting alongside him against his accusers. More remarkable still was that Sarah not only survived the tragedy wrought by her infamous husband’s deeds, but went on to live a successful and productive life as one of New York’s most prominent citizens. Marshaling in newly discovered primary-source documents from archives in London, New York and Boston, historian and journalist Daphne Palmer Geanacopoulos reconstructs the extraordinary life of Sarah Kidd, uncovering a rare example of the kind of life that pirate wives lived during the Golden Age of Piracy. A compelling tale of love, treasure, motherhood and survival, this landmark work of narrative nonfiction weaves together the personal and the epic in a sweeping historical story of romance and adventure.

Book excerpt: In the small town of Tameworth, there are some very strange goings on when a sinkhole suddenly makes an entire lake disappear within minutes, taking with it two unsuspecting participants in a game of life and death. The story of the mines that riddle the landscape began 100 years earlier. When the Tin mine was closed, unbeknown to the company that decommissioned the mine the vents were never capped over properly, but also unknowingly, the horror that lay beneath the town of Tameworth was thought to have been sealed over and forgotten forever. When thirty miners died in horrific circumstances, the link between the strange object that was found deep in the mine was to blame, and soon the mine was labelled as cursed. Strange events surround the mine and once it was closed the locals soon wanted to forget the sexual deviancy and horrors it had brought to the town. 50 years on, and the lake that had formed over one of the mines air vents suddenly disappears one night and for those next two weeks the people still alive from the past soon began to wish they had never heard of the mine, but this time, they had been lucky and after two weeks, the lake refilled, and all seemed quiet once more. Again, the story abated into a sordid secret never to be told and as the town grew, the stories soon disappeared of the cursed mine and the abhorrent events it wrought on the town. Josh has lived in Tameworth all his life and after meeting his lifelong friend and now girlfriend, thoughts of their future and marriage flood his young adult mind as he believes he has found his soulmate, but little does Josh realise that what is about to happen is going to change his life forever. His plan for a romantic proposal was simple. A boat trip out onto White Mere Lake, and then a romantic meal and then said deed would be done and his future with Lisa would be sealed. Unknowing to Josh and Lisa, it was time for the strange spirit that resides below that had waited its 50 years and it was now time to wreak havoc once more on the town. But this time, it was wanting more than ever before. The malevolent spirit wants only the souls of the chosen few and now has a way out of the mine, and soon it will seek out those souls that it needs to be free. David Bromin, the local fire chief, it soon to realise that a rescue mission he was on, soon turns into one of the strangest mysteries he has ever come across when a geologist named Sarah Lucas convinces him that she needs to go down the Tin mine to find something she suspects is a new phenomenon to science, and like so many before them, they soon discover that this mine is indeed cursed and now the spirit knows they are looking beyond what they need to know. With murders suddenly appearing all over Tameworth, detective Paul Smyth is soon on the scene and colluding with David to try to figure out what is happening, but like so much David is learning, the town of Tameworth is covering up a dirty secret and those involved with stop a nothing to keep Tameworth’s seedy past secret, even if it means framing or even killing those who seek out the truth. With the town in jeopardy and the evil spirit slowly gaining strength, time is running out to destroy the entity before it rampages through the town, in this endearing, yet odd tale from Joe KING.
