Missing in Michigan: Alexa Bentley Paranormal Mysteries Book One by April A. Taylor  

About Missing in Michigan: Alexa Bentley Paranormal Mysteries Book One by April A. Taylor

Is she a medium? A psychic? Alexa Bentley only knows one thing for certain; she can talk to ghosts. And sometimes, they take her advice. Alexa’s unusual ghost therapy skills take her to a remote corner of Michigan’s Upper Peninsula. But this case is much trickier than anything else she’s ever encountered. A grieving ghost, several missing teens, and a supernatural creature from Native American folklore stand in her path. Along the way, she manages a bit of romance and lots of witty humor.

“Alexa (Alex) Bentley is the type of main character I love… the plot grabbed me and made me want to read on, while the lightheartedness made the story even more enjoyable… I couldn’t work out the solution to the mystery… this is a book I would be quite happy to read a second time.” -Long and Short Reviews, Orchid (5 stars)

Missing in Michigan is ideal for fans of the Sookie Stackhouse Southern Mysteries, quirky female characters, and the Paranormal Mystery/Supernatural Suspense genres. This exciting, funny new series will keep you guessing!

Alexa Bentley Paranormal Mysteries – She’s a witty, mystery-solving ghost therapist. From the author of the Midnight Myths and Fairy Tales Series. Available for Kindle, Kindle Unlimited, and in paperback!

The ’69  

About The ’69

The story is set on a county estate in the west of Ireland. The last landlord features in the story, he returned for the Great war a broken man and converted the coach house into a garage to cater for his passion for cars.
The story is told in the first person, and much of it is centred around my efforts to complete the restoration of a 1969 Jaguar. My father and I began the work, but before I got to know the man he passed away. I wait patiently until my own son is of age and we begin the work again. I revel in the work and the opportunity to bond with the boy. Alas, I too fall prey to a weak heart and pass away; but not before I glimpse the image of my own father lurking in the shadows.
The story follows my beloved wife and her trials without me. My son finds work abroad and has to leave her alone in the great house. Daily she pines for me, glancing towards the garage where she suspects some part of my spirit still dwells; since it was there I spent my happiest hours.
I return some years later to haunt the garage from the shadows. On my first visit I witness my love collapsing, giving in to grief and passing away before me in the courtyard; and yet I linger. I have not been allowed to pass to whatever other world exists to join her.
My son, now a grown man, and his partner return to the house. He has returned to convalesce from an illness, though the story does not dwell on it. With time on his hands he takes up the task of restoring the car again, the distraction is good for him. I watch from the wings, heartbroken that I can not take part in the work or interact with him. There is something else, I am not alone, there are other forces in the shadows, frustrated and angry. I suspect my father is one.
Work progresses on the car and his domestic and financial troubles come to light. The car is finished and offered for sale in time to ease these troubles.
A suspicious buyer appears, who after some investigation turns out to be the son of the last landlord. The car it transpires had links to the landlord. A father and son began the work, I oversaw my son as he completed it and his own son, a child, is there to witness it’s completion. The car is sold to the old man. I watch it leave and am joined from the shadows by my father and the landlord, all three of us turn back and vanish into those same shadows.

Author Bio:
I have lived all my life in Donegal, on the rugged northwest coast of Ireland. Recently heralded as one of the most interesting places in the world to visit. The landscape is indeed breathtaking and it would be easy to say that the wildness and ruggedness of this last frontier of Europe was my inspiration to write, but that’s not entirely true. Donegal’s greatest asset are its people, ever eager to engage in clever and witty banter. Our use of language, the hilarious colloquialisms always leaves me wishing I had a pen to take notes. We have a unique way of looking at the rest of the world and indeed ourselves.
My books are fictional stories based around places I’ve been and people I’ve met. They all have a strong historical background because I love history, and they all have strong links to Ireland in one way or another.

About The Manifesto Murders

Special Agent Ayden Holmes is the star of America’s FBI Violent Crimes division and a dedicated family man. Life is going his way until an audacious serial killer stabs the very heart of government power one Friday night. Now Agent Holmes is on a chase to stop the highest profile murderer in memory. His familiar world is turned on its head when the killer leaves a bizarre manifesto letter and a smartphone beside his first victim. The killer’s note is written in flawless calligraphy on a burnt-edged piece of olden-days parchment paper; the cellphone is found empty, except for a single voice recording sent via an encrypted messenger app.

As Ayden hits play—an eerily disguised voice rings out. He reads along while the murderer promises to kill the most powerful and corrupt people in the world every Friday for the next three months, or, until his controversial terms are met. Following a trail of clues into the underbelly of a shocking global power structure that has infiltrated the US government, what Detective Holmes learns while hunting down the self-proclaimed “Manifesto Murderer” forces him to take a closer look at what rank-and-file FBI agents call “The Deep State.”

Hysteria grips the case. The world is watching. As
pressure skyrockets, unexpected danger surrounds
Agent Holmes, and each new revelation
is striking closer to home …

Author Bio:
Living in Los Angeles, Nick Airus explores controversial storytelling the likes of which has never been allowed into the mainstream–for fear it would open minds. THE ILLUMINIST is part 1 of an extremely ambitious new series of boundary-shattering religious science-fiction adventure novels already stirring up controversy and intrigue. THE MANIFESTO MURDERS explores an honest FBI detective who follows the trail of a radical serial killer into the truth about the so-called DEEP STATE. What could go wrong?

Born Nicholas Robert Motzkus and raised in Salt Lake City, Utah, Nick became fascinated with the interplay between science and religion, as well as the unifying power of art in culture. He earned his degree in Philosophy from the University of Utah, but not before starring in his first feature film. He got his start as a fiction writer publishing a short story for the magazine Philosophy Now and writing several screenplays. Mr. Airus has since coined a new genre to capture the game-changing nature of his literary style. He calls it the “Enlightenment Thriller.”
