Book Series The River

Does paradise only exist in our minds?

Eximere always seemed like paradise to Steven and Roy. Having agreed to act as caretakers for the mansion, they have been spending more time at Eximere, becoming acquainted with its quirks and idiosyncrasies.

However, the more Steven and Roy learn about Eximere, the more disillusioned they become.

Their recent discoveries of Eximere’s nature have extended their circle of caretaking, and now a century-old creature from a tiny town on the peninsula threatens to unravel the delicate balance that keeps Eximere functional. As they struggle to stop this strange entity from destroying everything they love about Eximere, more of James Unser’s bizarre design is revealed — and the results are devastating to Steven and Roy.

Steven’s brother and his family have come to visit for the holidays. Looking for a relaxing and quiet location to enjoy the scenic beauty of Puget Sound, Steven chooses Point No Point, the oldest lighthouse in the region. Here, the lighthouse keeper’s quarters have been remodeled into a vacation rental, and it seems to be the perfect location.

Perfect, if your idea of quiet is loud thumpings coming from the abandoned museum next door. Perfect, if your idea of relaxing is a slow, creeping infection emanating from the shipwrecks just off the shore.

In this stand-alone novel, Steven and his father Roy find their picturesque Christmas holiday turning into a family nightmare as they unravel the haunted secrets from the deadly shores of Point No Point.

He would slit their throats, then rob them and dump their bodies into the river...

Steven and Roy return as the haunted mysteries of Eximere deepen!

When the ghosts of grotesque, bloated bodies invade Eximere, Steven and Roy investigate only to find that other people are exploring the Unser Mansion above them, just like they did years ago. Somehow their arrival has released the spirits of dozens of drowning victims, who now wander the halls.

Secret rooms with no windows or doors hide new mysteries inside the mansion. It will take knowledge of the Dark River to figure things out. Although the Dark River is accessible from Eximere, Roy forbids it, and Steven has promised never to go there.

When Derick arrives to conduct his own investigation, it becomes clear that the Dark River is where the answers to James Unser’s mysteries lie. Will Steven travel there, breaking his promise to his father?

Many of the River universe storylines come together to weave a complex tale of one man’s evil quest for power.

A terrifying force haunts Johansen House…

The Victorian mansion sitting at the end of the street is full of horrors. It waits, its secrets hidden, its influence deadly. The events that happened within its walls are a mystery so deep, the truth may never be fully known. Uncovering its chilling history will take determination and skill.

Steven bought the house when it went up for sale, surprising his father Roy. As they use their gift to explore its rooms, they discover it’s full of unusual, terrifying spirits — some unresponsive, others violent.

Their search through Lukas Johansen’s past takes them to far-flung destinations, digging for explanations about his bizarre, depraved behaviors. Through it all, Roy wonders why Steven is so intent upon revealing the answers. Steven, for his part, isn’t entirely sure why he feels compelled to resolve the mysteries of the mansion — he simply knows that Johansen was a fundamental part of his past, and that he must pursue the truth.

When the truth is finally revealed to Steven, it is much worse than what he imagined…
