Shadows Burned In by Chris Pourteau

Genre(s): Literary Fiction

Have you ever worried about–ever feared–becoming your parents? Shadows Burned In tells the story of one man grappling with that question…and one family afraid of the answer.

David Jackson moves his wife, Susan, and daughter, Elizabeth, to his home town of Hampshire, Texas. He thinks he’s doing them a favor. Houston is rife with crime, smog, and traffic jams. Surely Hampshire, with barely 3,000 residents, is a safer place to raise a family.

But David discovers that old ghosts are hard to kill. Behaviors surface in him reminiscent of his abusive father, and David’s actions begin to overshadow his best intentions. Soon tensions with Susan erupt into arguments over why they moved to Hampshire in the first place. Family life in this small town is anything but tranquil.

To escape their feuding, Elizabeth explores the once-elegant home of Old Suzie, the object of local gossip and whispered tales of children in years gone by. Though Suzie is long dead, her abandoned home seems to simmer with phantoms from Hampshire’s past.

What will Elizabeth find there? A refuge from her bickering parents…or the dark force transforming her father?

The Scent of Evil by Rachel O’Brien Kolk

Genre(s): Thrillers

An artist, living in a small rural community on the shores of Lake Huron, is tormented by ghostly visitations of terrified women. Unidentified and unknown to her, she does not understand why the specters are drawn to her, but each frightening sighting brings with it the tumultuous and chilling emotions of the restless souls. As the visitations become more frequent and her life begins to slowly unravel, she calls on old family friends who are the only hope she has left.

Coming to her rescue is a jaded, hard-hearted, paranormal investigator, who is haunted by memories of a betrayal that left his young wife dead and a dream career in ruins.

As the two childhood acquaintances reconnect and investigate, feelings between them start to smolder. Sparks begin to fly, while a correlation is made between the spectral visitors and a nearly forgotten skeleton in the closet of the sleepy little lakeside town.

Tensions rise as an unknown killer draws closer and his scheme, to culminate over twenty years of killing, begins to come together in a well planned finale.

Will the jaded investigator be able to piece it all together in time to save, not only, his second chance at love and happiness, but possibly himself at the same time?
