A year after the tragic loss of his wife, Gillen Rainer is struggling to find closure. Unanswered questions linger even for his thirteen-year-old daughter, Allaire, who seeks solace in a memory far beyond her recollection.

As Sputnik orbits the globe every ninety-six minutes, Gillen and his team are set to announce a surprise of their own. The Alignment — a portal connecting the earth and the moon — is ready for visitors, effectively ending the space race.

But when his daughter decides to set foot on the moon… alone, Gillen must confront his deepest fears and the true cost of his decisions. In this romantic literary drama, with the soul of sci-fi, Gillen embarks on a perilous journey that forces him to grapple with the ultimate question: Can he reclaim his future by rescuing what he’s lost?

When the past won’t stay buried, only love can keep them alive.

FBI agent Dominic Sheridan doesn’t believe his mentor took his own life — especially not when a sniper opens fire at the funeral. Ava Kanas, a sharp-tongued agent with secrets of her own, shares his suspicions. She’s also the only one willing to chase the truth, even if it means breaking the rules — and getting under Dom’s skin.

Thrown together by a growing conspiracy and an undeniable attraction, Dom and Ava must navigate buried crimes, hostile bosses, and a killer who’s hunting agents tied to a cold case no one wants reopened. Trust doesn’t come easy, but neither does walking away… especially when falling in love might be the biggest risk of all.

In the shadow of an impenetrable fortress, First Templar Arthur leads a desperate defence against an overwhelming demonic horde. The Iron Gates, ancient structures forged by an Archangel, have never been breached, but they’ve never faced a threat like Naberius, the three-headed hound and high demon of Hell.

When reports arrive of a massive army marching south, Arthur must unite a fractured group of defenders: his eleven fellow Templars with their supernatural abilities, mercenaries seeking glory and gold, and common soldiers who know they face certain death. Among them stands Phillip, the newly-appointed Twelfth Templar with a dark past that haunts him, seeking redemption through sacrifice.

As the enemy’s numbers blacken the land like locusts, Arthur knows the odds are impossible. Yet strategic brilliance, desperate heroism, and the Angel’s Light might be enough to stem the tide if only they can find Naberius’s weakness. But Arthur’s greatest battle may be with his own demons, as he balances duty against despair, using whiskey to drown his nightmares while trying to maintain the strength his followers need.

With each fallen comrade, the defence grows more desperate. When a mountain avalanche provides a fleeting opportunity, Arthur must decide whether to risk everything on one final, audacious gambit to defeat the demon hound. The price of victory may be higher than any of them are prepared to pay.

A tale of sacrifice, redemption, and unwavering courage in the face of overwhelming darkness, “Battle of the Iron Gates” examines the true cost of war and the burden of leadership. This significantly expanded edition delves deeper into the epic prequel to the Wild Green Flame series, where the Light and the Darkness clash in a battle that will determine the fate of nations, while Arthur confronts the question that haunts every leader: how much blood is victory worth?

Book #3 in a delightful new series.

Set in 1986, Joanna Campbell Slan’s latest cozy mystery — Tuesday Trash and Trouble–features a down-on-her-luck divorcée whose passion for solving crimes lands her in the arms of a secretive cowboy–and the cross-hairs of a vengeful killer.

The year is 1986, the place is… pitiful. It’s Decatur, Illinois, known for high unemployment, striking unions, the pervasive stink of soybean processing, and seven railroad crossings at one intersection.

A wrong turn along life’s marital highway has left Catherine “Cragan” Collins stuck in Decatur. With a mountain of post-divorce bills to pay, Cragan takes a job selling high-priced newspaper advertising. If she’s lucky, her commissions will cover the cost of her grandmother’s stay in a nearby retirement home.

After the divorce, Cragan swears off men, but she’s a sucker for a guy in a nice suit. She falls hard for a man who publicly snubs her. On the rebound, she accepts an invitation from Ross Gentry, a quiet hunk who favors pearl snaps and cowboy boots. Cragan reasons that her heart is safe, because she and Ross come from two different worlds. But one night in his arms might be enough to prove her wrong.

Without warning, everything blows up in Cragan’s face. Her boss threatens to take away her accounts, a friend’s little sister is kidnapped, and an overnight guest is shot. Cragan’s best friend, Pru, is accused of attempted murder. After all, Pru’s gun was used in the crime.

Cragan calls an emergency meeting of the Friday Night Mystery Club. These mystery-loving career women are a group of smart cookies. Can their combined talents prove that Pru is innocent? And will they find an answer in time to save Cragan from the wrath of a vengeful shooter?

It takes a club to solve a mystery!
