Shining Bright Lights in Dark Places is a recount of the time spent in prison by the Television Presenter Ashley Blake. Taken directly from the diary he wrote in prison day by day, capturing his feelings, both personal and those expressed by others at the time. The rights or wrongs of his situation where not the point, but the futility, frustration, and the deprivation of liberty which he experienced he felt compelled to tell in this bare bones autobiography.

In Eberville, Louisiana, a widowed mother weeps over the recent death of her son. People are calling the tragedy an accident. Stella Voss, the boy's mother, is screaming murder. When the town's sheriff is unable to prove her suspicions correct, Stella takes matters into her own hands.And support is only a letter away from her mailbox. Rumored to be one of the last of the Moss Hill Witches, Ariel Bordeaux is possibly Stella's answer for revenge. Ariel agrees to Stella's wishes only in exchange for information leading to a shotgun-wielding psychopath who's been mailing her threatening letters from Eberville. Ariel knows she must stop him before he fulfills his evil desires.
