DOWNLOAD EBOOKMay 1195, and Sir John de Wolfe is faced with a strange series of serial murders, which begins with the suffocation of a Jewish money-lender and proceeds through that of a London harlot, a dissolute priest and a burgess suspected of abusing young boys. The common factor is that an appropriate Biblical text is left at each murder scene, the mode of which reflects the alleged sin of the victim. This means that a literate and Bible-learned killer is involved - which, in an age where only 1% of the population can read or write - can only be a priest. There are at least twenty-five parish churches in Exeter, so the killer could be any one of more than a hundred clerics. Crowner John sets about to discover the identity of the homicidal priest.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKDeath is complicated. Avoiding dead people is impossible, especially since I discovered I’m destined to become a reaper. Now I must enter a terrifying new world where reapers, vampires, and demons exist. Drawn to a reaper who is as handsome as he is unreachable, he assigns me to a trainer who has the initiative of an overfed hamster. My inept trainer is content to watch me catastrophically fail. Repeatedly. And that’s not the worst of it. To follow my destiny, I must die. My trainer is okay with that. I am not. However, when the Grim Reaper curses me to strip me of my birthright, suddenly death isn’t my only fear. If you like action packed books filled with enthralling characters, a deadly plot, humorous encounters, a gorgeous reaper, a hungry vampire, and enough twists to keep the pages turning, read Grim Girl.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKThis is the first of a series, and will take several books to complete the story. This story takes place in 1947, in Roswell, New Mexico. An older man, a cowboy was caught by surprise, while out on the range. From out of nowhere, flying black rods, about ten inches long, quietly flew up and drilled a flesh sample out of the back of his hand. His trusted pony received the same treatment. When they tried to flee from them, they found out that the black rods were too swift for them. Soon the black rods caught up with them and injected some form of alien tranquilizer into both of them. In a matter of moments, they were rendered unconscious. The cowboy was teleported on to the master alien ship, which appeared to be two miles long and twenty or so stories high. These aliens are ruthless and are indifferent to humans, Later, in the novel, the aliens also abduct the cowboy's ex-wife, the cowboy and wife both being fairly simple-minded plain folks. The chief master alien was found to be extremely intellectual; he can speak over 3,000 languages and has studied Earth since before the antediluvian area. He meets his match with an old plain-spoken grandma and a flea-bitten old cowboy. This novel has a witty twist of comedy which adds a little spice to humanity. The two older couples were simple folk, but honest Injuns, so to speak, and the aliens realized this. Of course, the aliens had the upper hand at all times. The aliens claimed that they weren't interested in conquering Earth, it's far too primitive! Besides that, if they wanted to, they could have conquered Earth many years ago. The aliens think that they have run onto an amazing secret, which at all cost, they wish to retrieve. It might take some time, but they always get what they go after. The older couple had domestic problems most of their married lives. The ex-wife, granted, in the past had resorted to witchcraft to try and save her marriage, but it only ended in a disaster. Along with this alien problem, both of their lives are in turmoil, mostly because their lives were based on lies and deceit. The aliens monitored their household constantly, then put an implant into both of them. The aliens revealed some secrets that mankind has asked for many years -- secrets of the universe.
