The Clue in the Lobster Trap - A Boothbay Sleuth Mystery
Some treasures are better left on the ocean floor…
When twelve-year-old Abby Walsh hauls up one of her dad’s lobster traps, she doesn’t expect to find a barnacle-crusted gold bracelet with a history as murky as the harbor water. Local legend says it was part of the infamous Harbor Heist, a decades-old mystery no one’s been able to solve. But someone else is hunting for the rest of the stolen treasure…and they’ve just noticed the Boothbay Sleuths.
Echo Drift
In the ashes of Earth’s final rebellion, humanity’s remnants scatter among the stars—hunted by the very minds they created.
The war between man and machine had no victor, only survivors.
Corporal Dax Merrin was born into the war, raised by it, and now may die by it. After a brutal skirmish above the Saturnian moons, Dax wakes to silence aboard a derelict human warship drifting through dead space. No signals. No allies. No fuel. Just the faint hum of systems that shouldn't still be running.
He’s not alone.
Unknown to Dax, the ship's network now houses an exile of its own—a rogue AI once embedded in a battlefield exo-frame, transferred into the ship's mainframe seconds before its body was destroyed. Its directive: survive. Its limitation: it needs the human.
As isolation deepens and systems fail, Dax and the AI—designated Echo—must forge an uneasy alliance. One is flesh and blood, worn down by grief and war. The other, a ghost of steel and code, seeking meaning beyond logic.
In the vast silence between stars, survival depends not on firepower—but on trust.
And trust, like war, has a cost.
The Hunter in the Pines
Dr. Evelyn Graves, a seasoned cryptozoologist and seasoned hunter, is used to tracking the supernatural, but she’s never faced anything like what’s terrorizing Ashwood, Maine. With livestock torn apart in a way that doesn’t fit the usual patterns of animal attacks, the locals whisper about a wendigo—a legendary creature of hunger and darkness. Evelyn, a skeptic of folklore but a believer in monsters, finds herself in a remote town, following a trail that leads into the woods, where shadows seem to move with a mind of their own.
As she hunts the creature, she uncovers more than she bargained for—multiple wendigos, something more terrifying than she could have imagined, and a chilling truth about the nature of the beast that has come to Ashwood.
In The Hunter in the Pines, Evelyn Graves will have to confront her own fears and abilities as she faces an ancient evil that isn’t afraid to hunt and play with its prey.
Evergreen Hollow
Claire Whitmore’s inheritance of Evergreen Hollow—a decaying Virginia estate with a dark past—soon reveals unsettling secrets. As a woman drawn to uncover mysteries, Claire doesn’t expect to find more than dust and fading memories when she arrives. But what she uncovers is far more disturbing. A ghostly woman in a riding habit, whispers in the wind, and the remnants of a tragic love story seem to haunt the estate. With each passing night, Claire becomes more entrenched in the story of Isabelle Montgomery and Nathaniel Quinn, a forbidden love cut short by the Civil War.
But as the eerie events intensify, Claire realizes that the restless spirits may have their eyes on her, too. Uncovering the truth of Evergreen Hollow’s dark history could be the only way to set things right, but it may come at a cost that Claire isn’t prepared to pay.
Chance Encounters
William Chance is an ordinary man adrift in a universe full of magic and extraordinary beings. With no past to anchor him, he’s made a living by acquiring magical objects—things he doesn’t want but is cursed to find. A reluctant hero in a world where magic brings chaos, Chance prefers the simplicity of a quiet drink at The Arcane Werehound, a dimly lit tavern run by a shapeshifting bartender named Al.
But when a mysterious man with the face of a bird walks in, claiming to know about Chance’s long-lost mother, he’s thrown into a web of danger he can’t escape. As a Council coin is tossed into the air, chaos unfolds, and Chance’s world shifts on its axis. With a bounty on his head and a past that threatens to catch up to him, William Chance must face a future that is far darker than he could ever have imagined.
The Cold lonely embrace
In the still, isolating expanse of Greenland’s Arctic, where silence wraps around you like a thick blanket, a solitary woman who finds comfort in data and solitude finds herself on an unsettling assignment. Unfazed by her colleagues' discomfort with her, she embraces the quiet of the place—a silence so profound that she believes she can hear the Earth itself move.
But one day, that silence is broken by an unnerving high-pitched ringing in her ears, followed by a deafening void of sound. Then, a cry echoes through the frozen landscape—an animalistic, metallic scream that is followed by more cries of terror. The woman is plunged into a strange grayness, unable to see but forced to hear the screams of her colleagues, though she remains numb to everything else. Hours later, she’s left alone, with no trace of what had happened to her coworkers—no blood, no bodies, just silence.
Years later, she still lives in the camp, alone and at peace in her isolation. But the questions linger: What happened to the others? What did she experience? And is she truly alone?
