Book excerpt: New Orleans Police Officer Stephen Calvert does more than just shield the people of the Big Easy from crime. Since he was a small boy, Stephen has been entrusted with an extraordinary gift-or maybe it's a curse. He perceives the world of spirits, angels, demons, and even more malevolent creatures-and what's more, it is his responsibility to fight them, to protect the world from these supernatural forces. Now an adult, Stephen must root out an ancient evil amassing around New Orleans. In the city of Voodoo, this public servant-a devout Catholic and mere mortal-must battle the forces of the rising Antichrist with only his wits and strong faith to guide him. And the stakes couldn't be higher. Fighting through a maze of dive bars, seedy businessmen, corrupt cops, and other hidden dangers, Stephen finds himself in the struggle of his life as he hastens to learn who to trust and who to vanquish before the Antichrist unleashes his infinite wrath upon an unwitting world. Frank Rodriguez's exciting novel is based in part on his personal experiences as a New Orleans cop. Dark, suspenseful, and faith-affirming, this book takes on the eternal battle between darkness and light.

Download or read book True Ghost Stories Real Police Ghost Stories written by Zachery Knowles and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2017-10-28 with total page 92 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Police! Who goes there?" the cry goes out as a shaking torchlight illuminates a ghostly figure. The figure hangs for a moment then disappears and the officer is changed forever. Suddenly, a world that made sense has been turned upside down and the terrified family who first called the police remains uncomforted. This family is not alone though, for all over the world, police officers come in contact with the strange and the paranormal. If it were anyone else, we would dismiss these tales as falsehoods by most. But the people in these stories are not unreliable witnesses or fanciful con artists; they are the men and women who serve our communities when terrifying forces seek to harm us. Our patrollers are trained to observe, to remember details, and to never assume things are as they seem; the officers involved in these stories have never been able to find rational explanations for their experiences. These accounts come from officers across the globe, from devout Catholics to staunch Atheists and everyone in between who could not have imagined what they would come across when they took their calls, and many of them wish they could forget their experiences after they did. Delve into these eighteen stories and discover that even those charged with protecting us witness things they were never equipped to deal with. If you are a non-believer, withhold your judgment until you have read the chillingly convincing evidence for yourself. If you already believe, you will know the fear these officers faced. When your job is to confront the evils that people can do to each other, to protect those who are unable to against harm, it is inevitable you will one day find something that you cannot protect. After all, as Nietzsche once said, "And if thou gaze long into an abyss, the abyss will also gaze into thee." Ready to scare yourself senseless? Scroll to the top of the page and hit buy!

Though haunted by the recent deaths of two teammates, Jackson Crow knows that it’s the living who commit the most heinous crimes. As a police officer using her sometimes-otherworldly intuition, Angela Hawkins already has her hands full of mystery and bloodshed. Under the oversight of Adam Harrison, Jackson and Angela will join a newly formed unit of the FBI, with the extraordinary opportunity to use their psychic talents. And the first assignment calls to them too strongly to resist. In a historic mansion in the French Quarter, a senator’s wife falls to her death. Most think she jumped; some say she was pushed.

In this seemingly unsolvable case, only one thing is certain: whether supernatural or all too human, crimes of passion will cast Jackson and Angela straight into danger. Originally published in 2011
