"...one of horror's rising stars..." -Signal Horizon
Harry Potter meets The Exorcist in this supernatural thriller duology about a malevolent ghost, a greedy shapeshifter, a boy with memories he has no right to possess-and the mysterious painting that has the power to change their destinies forever.
Dear Jack,
It's been another terrifying night. I'm bloody, exhausted, and scarred. But there's nothing more important than writing this letter to you. I don't know how old you'll be when it finds you. I hope you read this pre-fall, pre-Kasper, pre-Mr. Phillips. That would save you-us-a lot of pain. But even if you don't, maybe especially if you don't...hold on, Jack. Fight.
They'll tell you Katherine isn't real, and that the kids you had together aren't, either. They'll say the shadow people, demons, and ghosts are figments of your imagination. That you should forget. Don't listen to them, Jack. You're not crazy. And that man you see across the way, in Apartment 3C...he's not a man. Not anymore. If you don't know what I'm talking about yet, you will.
I'll tell you a secret: Time isn't linear. You can fold it, dipping into the past, present, and future. You can find your way back to Katherine, I promise. I'll tell you another: you can see and hear dead people. You can help ghosts move on from the in between. Some people call it a gift; the jury's still out on that one. Whatever you want to call it, don't be frightened of it, Jack. Use it. You'll need to, if you want us to survive. Never lose sight or possession of the painting; it is our reason for reason; it holds time, power, and evil in its mystery. Know this: it also holds the secret to neutralizing the darkness. The painting is our ruby slippers! It will always be our portal home.
How do I know all this? Because I am you, Jack-an older version, anyway. You are me. And our future...Katherine's future...it all depends on the choice you make. You're the only one who can control the shadows. You're the only one who can defeat him.
With love and hope,
Yourself
"An eerie tone permeates the entire story, with even mundane events feeling off-kilter. The whole cast seems to have multiple personas, all tinged with darkness." -Foreword Clarion Review
"At times an intriguing mystery, at others a chilling thriller...Jack's development throughout is an adventurous, if spooky, coming of age story that will thrill and at times scare readers of classic urban fantasy and YA series." -Booklife Reviews

Read the first book and this 2nd one did not disappoint! Loved every chapter. More please!
Like it was written by George Santos
Received an Advanced Reader Copy from a friend. I am an avid true crime reader and upon completion I question if the author is credible. The timeline does not add up for his age and the times of his alleged involvement in organized crime. Some of the things in the book he is alleged to have said and done I remember almost word for word from movies I had previously watched. He literally stole a scene from the movie the accountant with Ben Affleck and said that he did it. I did a little research after completing the book and learned that this author was also claiming in 2010 that he was a long time member of the Bloods Gang. That coupled with the above leads me to believe that it is nothing more than fantasy. Do not waste your time or money

What a difficult story to tell. I appreciate the honesty and vulnerability. Definitely made me think.
I had hopes for this book but was not expecting what I would read within the pages. If your kink is deplorable grammar, incoherent sentences, and inconsistent messages, then this book is for you. At first, I thought the book I received was not the book I ordered. But as I dived in, it was very confusing. I would not recommend this book to anyone
There are not many reviews on the internet for this book. In researching the many stores selling the book, it was self-published which makes a lot of sense. The online description is written perfectly, so reading the actual book was very difficult. Pages two and three are written clearly as well as the table of contents. Pages 155 and 156 are also written logically.
It appears this book was written, then sent through a program like “Grammarly.” Once completed it seems it was published without being re-read or edited. The first clue was the title narrative that used “Has” instead of “As.” The table of contents is one page off from what it shows on pages four though seven. Many of the “q’s” are written as “[]”
Below are some examples of what was within the pages of this book written verbatim:
“Chains & Discipline/ Domination & entry/ Sadism & Masochism (BDSM) is a wide classification of bed room play.” Page 9
“When bringing up the topic of chains, you are actually asking a person to offer you their depend on, their flexibility, and also possibly their suggestion of security in exchange for sensual/sexual enjoyment, power-play, and also feasible re-evaluation of your very own connection.” Page 39
“Techni[]ue can take a selection of kinds and also be as easy or facility as you pick to (new paragraph) bargain for your details scenario” Page 52
“BDSM stands for chains as well as entry, technique and also supremacy as well as sadism and also masochism.” Page 125
“SHELF means Risk Aware Consensual Kink.” Page 130
“Approval is whatever.” Page 152
“your twist isn’t my twist, yet your twist is OKAY.” Page 153
“You can be a top, base, or button” Page 153
