Like Death — (2005) Publisher: Scott Raymond is a man haunted by his past and terrorized in the present. As a young boy, he witnessed the brutal murder of his family, but there is so much of the gruesome tragedy that he simply cannot remember — including the identity of the killer or why Scott alone was spared. The memories won’t come, but the trauma won’t go away. Scott is an adult now, still emotionally scarred but learning to deal with it. He has come to Ash Creek to write about a different mystery, a six-year-old girl named Miranda who has disappeared in broad daylight one year ago. Here, Scott meets another girl named Miranda, who bears an uncanny resemblance to the one who’s missing — but this one’s a teenager. She will draw Scott into the bizarre hidden world known as Shadow. A world where nightmares are very real… and very deadly.

Pandora Drive — (2006) Publisher: There are no words for it. Ecstasy is laughably inadequate, as are rapture, euphoria, bliss…. Ugly, harsh syllables that come nowhere near capturing the merest fraction of what he feels. The experience is primal and transcendent, like birth, like death. Scott Raymond lost his parents in a bloodbath when he was only nine years old, but despite the occasional headaches and hallucinations, he’s managed to turn that trauma into moderate success as a true crime writer. The success doesn’t extend to keeping up the relationship with his estranged wife and son, however. Hoping to regain a sense of normal family life, he follows them to Ash Creek, Ohio under the pretense of writing a new book about a missing six-year-old girl. There, he encounters a young woman who shares the missing girl’s name. She leads Scott into a world of psychotropic spiders, shark-toothed teenagers and the expression of nearly every dark desire. Fear and fascination lay equal claim as the nightmare fantasies of this realm bleed into Scott’s daily life and his attempts to maintain a relationship with his son. Soon, he will need to use this world of cruelty and pain to face his past, his future, and what his life might have become. If he fails, it is only a matter of time before the nightmare that bloodied his childhood will reach out to ensnare his own son.

Its home is in the shadows of a bizarre, hidden club named Penumbra, where it is worshipped by followers who need the pleasure it gives them. They are addicted to it. They live for it. And they kill for it. When Aaron was first introduced to Penumbra, he thought it was just a secret club where members could indulge their kinkier fantasies. Bit by bit, as he learned the club’s true purpose, he began to change in subtle, horrible ways. Now it’s time for Aaron to prepare his first human sacrifice to the waiting darkness. It’s too late for him to back out now, but murder is the least of Penumbra’s sins. The true terror is still to come when… Darkness Wakes.

Beneath the Bones (aka Cross County) — (2008) Publisher: When Joanne Talon was a child, she disappeared for six days. She returned without any memory of where she’d been and what happened to her during that time. Not long after that, four people were viciously murdered without apparent motive by Carl “the Cutter” Coulter. Carl cut their throats and then carved a bizarre symbol — a triangle bisected by a bolt of lightning — into their abdomens. Now Joanne is Sheriff of Cross County, Ohio, and Carl Coulter is dead, executed for his crimes eight years ago. But the killings begin again: throats slashed, Carl’s signature symbol carved into the victims’ stomachs. Joanne, with the help of reporter Dale Ramsey, must discover who’s copying Carl’s crimes and why. To make matters worse, the murders have drawn the attention of the sinister Cross family, who’ve ruled the county that bears their name for the last two centuries. The Crosses have their own reasons for wanting the murders stopped. Their land holds secrets… ancient, dark, and buried deep. And the Crosses intend to make sure they stay that way.
