Summoner of Sleep

"A dark family secret—A town that doesn’t exist on any map—and a drug that will unleash an apocalyptic, transformational horror on the world."

Ryder Ashling’s world is turning upside down. He’s lost his job, wife, home, and now he’s doubting his sanity. Behind his descent are horrific nightmares so vivid that they follow him into the waking world. When he discovers his neighbor has been documenting his nightmares with scientific precision and leaving him vials of a drug called Summoner of Sleep, things get weirder.

His neighbor disappears and Ryder follows his trail to Marble Woods, a town erased from all maps after a historical atrocity. Now it’s whispered to be the home of marble-skinned demons, as well as the source of the plants used to manufacture Summoner of Sleep.

It's here in Marble Woods that Ryder will come face to face with the darkest of family secrets and be forced to make a decision that will change the fate of the world.

Rich in magic and occultism, fractured characters, and a taste of mystery, Summoner of Sleep is a fast paced, thrill-ride bursting with psychological terror.

The Strange Luck Series

Strange Luck

"After she’s inherited her family’s shop, Daisy Darling – an eighteen-year-old with a weakness for chocolate cake and fairy tales – must leave the confines of antiques and tradition to find a cure for her ailing father."

Never in her wildest dreams did Daisy anticipate a mysterious world thrived beneath her quaint little town of Sea Salt, California. A world full of beautiful landscapes, characters from her childhood stories, and time-altering portals. When her memories begin to rapidly disintegrate without explanation, she resolves to do anything to get them back. But to face the dark forces at play, she’ll need a little help from Nedder Fedder.

Nedder Fedder, a peculiar and powerful wizard, has one goal: to assist those with kind hearts using ancient magic. Yet, Nedder Fedder is also a captive in the mysterious world and nearly all his memories—including knowledge of his spells—have already disappeared. Whoever rules the world is stealing memories, and when they are all exhausted, another victim is robbed.

Now Daisy must battle the Entity and navigate through the deadly Nameless Cliffs, following the clues to find a way out before she completely loses her identity.

STRANGE LUCK is the enthralling first installment in the Strange Luck Series. A YA supernatural adventure with jaw-dropping twists, Strange Luck will keep you guessing until the very end.
