TDH Kindle cover 200x299The new book in The River series, The Diablo Horror, is available today for Kindle at Amazon. com. The paperback will be available in a couple of days.

Here’s the book description:

Diablo is a small company town – twenty nondescript homes, tucked against a cliff at the base of a huge dam. These houses are all the same, except for one – the one haunted by a bloody and horrific crime that replays again and again.

Steven tries to wrap up the deal he made with a demon before rescuing his son from St. Thomas. This leads Steven to the Diablo house with his father and son. Unprepared for the powerful entities inside the house, Steven soon learns he’s made a fatal mistake. Eliza joins them as they attempt to battle the most evil force they’ve ever encountered.

In one of the most chilling books of The River series, Steven, Roy, and Eliza learn that when it comes to making a deal with a demon, there’s one unfortunate truth:

Demons lie.

BOBR Kindle cover 2015 200x299There is a new Steven and Roy book coming soon, too! In the meantime, I’m hoping you’ll find time spent downwind with Deem and Winn to be a fun summertime escape.

Here’s the book description:

Downwind: the area of the United States that received the brunt of the fallout from nuclear testing. As a result, humans developed cancers and congenital malformations… and so did the creatures in the River, the place where people with “the gift” see things others cannot.

Twenty-year-old Deem is gifted, but she is on her own without her mentor, her late father. Deem’s family is now targeted by a strange creature that climbs on their roof at night and infects the house with poison. With help from the charismatic Winn, Deem tries to stop the attacks, but this is only the beginning, with more ghosts, Callers, and mutated creatures to come.

Deem met Steven and Roy when she helped save their son from the ghosts at St. Thomas. She was impressed by Roy’s use of their ancestors’ journals to assist with their work. Deem is confident her father left behind a journal for her somewhere, but her dangerous search becomes riddled with menacing secrets and revelations, putting people’s lives at risk.

Deem and Winn are not alone; they are helped by Awan, a handsome Paiute who knows Native American tradition and can explain the strange forces targeting Deem. They also meet Carma, a friendly soul with a fantastic and valuable secret buried in her house.

Blood Oath, Blood River is the first book in The Downwinders series, a spinoff of The River series, in which Deem and Winn first appear in Book Six, Devil’s ThroatBlood Oath, Blood River is a stand-alone novel; no prior experience with The River series is necessary to enjoy it. Fans of The River series will be intrigued by this new exploration of the River, set in a place where downwind radiation has made the ghosts and creatures of the River strange and unpredictable.

Announcing a new River series: The Downwinders

I’m excited to announce that the next book in The River series is actually a start to a new series within The River “mythos.”

Deem and Winn, characters introduced in Devil’s Throat, now have their own series, “The Downwinders.” As you’ll recall from Devil’s Throat, things in the River are a little fucked up compared to what Roy and Steven experience. The fallout from nuclear testing in Nevada has altered the way the River works, and altered many of the creatures which exist in the River.

The first book of The Downwinders series is complete, and will be published within the next couple of weeks! Watch this space for an announcement. Please sign up to receive an email – I only send out mass emails when there’s a new book.

And for those who are anxiously awaiting the next Steven and Roy book, never fear, a new title in The River series is also underway and will be released in the months ahead!

I hope you enjoy the new series. It uses many of the things you’re already familiar with about the River while introducing new characters and threats. Steven, Roy, and Eliza make a brief appearance in the book.

Devil's Throat cover smallIf you’ve not read Devil’s Throat, it might be a good read before starting this series, as it will give you an introduction to Deem and Winn.

Thanks for reading!
