An Eternity to Burn in Hell

An Eternity to Burn in Hell
An Eternity to Burn in Hell is a dark, multi-layered crime thriller that explores the devastating consequences of trauma, revenge, and the failures of justice. The novel follows the intersecting lives of five women known as “Aphrodite’s Ladies.” Each woman is shaped by a harrowing past of abuse, addiction, and survival through sex work, but all eventually attempt to leave their old lives behind in search of redemption and dignity.

But their hopes for new lives are shattered when a vengeful former client, whose own life was destroyed by disease and obsession, hunts them down in a cross-country killing spree. As the women are murdered one by one in increasingly brutal ways, police indifference and investigative failures allow the killer to evade justice for years.
Only after a determined investigator connects the dots do the full horrors come to light. In the end, justice is bittersweet, and the story stands as a chilling indictment of society’s failures and the devastating cost of revenge. $0.99 on Kindle.

Mr Jones: A Gripping Psychological Thriller

Mr Jones: A gripping psychological thriller

‘An enthralling, chilling novel by a master storyteller… You won’t be able to put this book down!’
Reader review

Ben is a single father struggling to protect his daughter from a threat he cannot see or understand.

Ten months after the mysterious disappearance of his wife, Ben is overwhelmed by his responsibilities to eight-year-old Imogen. But now, unsettling events are pushing him to the brink: a mysterious girl appears in the park, seeming to live in an abandoned house; strange noises echo from his basement; and Imogen starts receiving eerie messages from someone claiming to be her missing mother.

Looming over it all is Mr Jones, a terrifying masked figure who stalks the neighbourhood, his intentions unknown.

Desperate to keep Imogen safe, Ben turns to Amy, the mother of Imogen’s best friend. But Amy has secrets of her own, and the line between friend and foe begins to blur.

In this chilling novel, single parenthood, loss and “stranger danger” collide with a creeping horror that lurks just beneath the surface. Can Ben uncover the truth before it’s too late?

Welcome to the idyllic yet eccentric retirement community of The Ocean’s Edge—where retirement has never felt so deadly. Disco is dead, there’s a serial killer on the loose, the coffin dodgers are solving cold cases, and only the neighborhood cat knows where all the proverbial bodies are buried. When sharp-tongued sugar heiress Diana is ousted from the empire she helped build, she retreats to a posh 55+ paradise expecting peace, maybe even a pool boy. Instead, she finds a ragtag group of retirees with a knack for solving cold cases—and a disturbing knack for attracting new ones. She quickly finds herself entangled with this quirky yet capable team of senior sleuths: a psychic, tarot-reading twin duo, a retired detective, a conspiracy-minded tech guru, and a nurse who might just talk to animals. Among tarot cards, a talking cat, and dark web dives, this misfit crew uncovers more than just bingo night secrets. Because in a place this sunny, the shadows run deep, and someone at The Ocean’s Edge has blood on their hands. As the group begins investigating cold cases, darker truths emerge, uncovering clues that tie back to mysterious pasts, hidden traumas, and residents with more secrets than memories.
