When Eric is summoned to help protect a coven of real-life witches
from a murderous magic man, he thinks he has an idea of what's in
store for him. After all, he's done this kind of thing twice
before. But right from the start, nothing seems to be going right.
For starters, it's only two days until his wedding anniversary, and
if he's not back in time for the romantic getaway Karen has planned
for them, he'll have worse things to worry about than dark magic
and monsters.
When Eric catches sight of Creek Bend, Wisconsin's most famous
missing person, his mundane morning of running errands rapidly
erupts into a chaotic search for mysterious, hidden places
scattered throughout his own hometown. Along the way, he'll have to
deal with strange monsters, a murderous cowboy and a curiously
intimidating man in a pink shirt. The second book in the Rushed
series. Horror-adventure, suspense and all-around weirdness.
"The things in this tunnel are imaginary as long as you don't prove
them otherwise..." This was the warning of the Sentinel Queen. But
can Wayne really ignore these "imaginary" things to save his own
life? Separated from the companions he had grown to trust, Wayne
stands alone as he prepares to take his first steps on a journey
through a terrifying, personal hell. The dark and ancient tunnel
that lies before him will test his courage to its very limits and
force him to face the greatest fears he has ever known...and even
the past he seeks to flee. And even if he is strong enough to
endure this torturous passage, does he have what it takes to
survive what lies beyond? The things that lurk in the Wood are not
imaginary. It is a place of immeasurable darkness and despair, a
place where death is eternal, but never final...
When Albert finds a mysterious wooden box waiting for him in the
driver's seat of his locked car, he has no idea that it will lead
him on an extraordinary and terrifying adventure. Each clue he
unravels leads only to more questions as he pieces together a map
of the complex, subterranean system that lies beneath the city and
the strange labyrinth hidden deep within. Can he discover the
meaning behind the box? Or will the endless darkness and the things
that lurk unseen within these walls swallow him forever?
Albert Cross emerges from the terrifying labyrinths of the Temple
of the Blind with a broken arm and a burdened heart, only to
discover that he and his friends must now climb to the summit of a
mountain engulfed in fire. Lost in a world of perpetual darkness,
surrounded by countless miles of deadly forest, they have no choice
but to journey onward or perish in this strange land where little
separates the living from the dead. Exhausted, hungry and weak,
they will need to rely on every skill they have to survive this
final task, including those skills they don't yet know they
possess. Book 6 in the 6-book horror-adventure series, THE TEMPLE
OF THE BLIND. About 96,000 words.
Eric can't remember the recurring dream that keeps waking him in
the middle of the night with an overwhelming urge to leave, yet he
spends each day feeling as if he desperately needs to be somewhere.
With no idea how to cure himself of this odd compulsion, he decides
to let it take its course and go for a drive, hoping that once he
proves to himself that there is nowhere to go, he can return to his
normal life. Instead, he finds himself hurled headlong into a
nightmare adventure across a fractured Wisconsin as the dream
reveals itself one heart-pounding detail at a time. From the author
of The Temple of the Blind. Horror, suspense, dark adventure.
84,000 words.
Urged onward by the mysterious Sentinel Queen, Albert, Brandy and
Nicole venture ever deeper into the Temple of the Blind...and into
the greatest danger they have yet faced. Endless miles of twisting
passageways and perilous chambers stand before them, and with
Albert's box of clues finally exhausted, they will have to navigate
the dark corridors utterly blind. And time is ticking as a
dangerous beast stalks them with murderous intent. Meanwhile, Wayne
struggles to catch up to them with a warning that all may not be as
it seems. Someone is lying to them. Is it the mysterious old man
who aided Wayne in his journey into the Wood? Or is it the kindly
Sentinel Queen? Together, the six of them must decide who to trust.
The very fate of the world may hinge on the actions they take this
night.
Having narrowly survived the nightmare that he and his friends
found hidden within the crumbling ruins of Gilbert House, Albert
Cross is newly determined to seek out the answers he has long been
denied. He suspects that at least some of those answers may await
him in the mysterious labyrinth he and Brandy discovered the
previous year, the place he calls The Temple of the Blind. But to
get there, he and his friends will have to deal with a madwoman,
avoid the strange and deadly creatures that prowl the dark
passageways and decipher the remaining clues inside the box to
unlock the temple's map. To make matters worse, the man with no
eyes awaits them with a very unpleasant demand.
One year after Albert and Brandy discovered a fantastic labyrinth
hidden deep beneath the streets of Briar Hills, Missouri, strange
telephone messages begin stirring up memories of those dark
passages. It seems that it may be time for them to return to that
perilous world to finish what they started. However, when a strange
envelope finds its way into his hands, Albert realizes that their
destination this time is not the university's steam tunnels, where
they began their last journey, but the bizarre ruins of an old
men's dormitory in the woods north of the campus. But even with
Wayne and Nicole at their sides, they are not prepared for the
terrifying secrets hidden beneath the cellar door of Gilbert House.
