Featured Work
The Purveyor of Death
A young man with amnesia, D.R. (Doc) Moon walks toward Cutters Notch, Indiana at midnight on a warm summer night carrying only a water bottle and a backpack. Inside his bag is a journal containing his only long-term memories. Tired, thirsty, and a little hungry, he’s hoping to find a bed of pine needles to rest. Before reaching the edge of town, he’s struck with a vivid vision of his own bloody death. Per his journal, this has happened before. He survived those, but will he survive this time?
His long-term memory is gone but Doc Moon’s physical skills, enhanced intuition, and paranormal abilities are in full working order as he faces the town bully, falls in love with a local beauty, and works to solve an old mystery. All before his midnight showdown with the Purveyor of Death—an ancient creature out for blood.
The Purveyor of Death is a classic monster thriller that will keep you turning pages and make you hesitate to walk outside alone in the dark of night.
