The Curse of Aldebaran

The Curse of Aldebaran

The Construction of Shadows, Book Two

Dakota Jackson

Two spirits. One body. No way out.

When Suraya and Meiling’s second year at the Academy begins with paired reconnaissance training, neither of them expects it to end in disaster. But when a mysterious agent of the Miyako family attacks, Meiling throws herself into the line of fire—and her spirit is torn from her body…only to bind itself to Suraya instead.

Now trapped together in a single body while Meiling’s empty form lies dying in the intensive care unit, the two girls are forced into an alliance neither of them wants.

But the Mikayo family is still out there, draining spirits, hunting power…and closing in on Suraya for a reason no one understands.

As Suraya is hailed as Ataru Reborn, her power grows more unstable—and more dangerous. Meanwhile, Meiling is running out of time to reclaim her body before she’s lost for good…or killed like her uncle before her.

The Curse of Aldebaran publishes June 5th.

The Man Who Remembered

The Man Who Remembered

John Caulfield

A guilt-ridden man who cannot remember. An enigmatic woman who cannot forget.

When Alice Chase stumbles across photographs of a bikini-clad woman on her husband’s computer, she decides to hire renowned private investigator, James Lee, to uncover the truth. But she accidentally telephones a failing lawyer of the same name.

Stricken by memory loss and formless guilt, the lawyer impulsively pretends to be the investigator Alice is looking for and agrees to take on the case.

Lee follows Alice’s husband to Thailand, where he tracks down the woman in the photographs and finds himself drawn into a dreamlike otherworld where reality disintegrates and his identity begins to unravel.

As he digs deeper, he realizes there is far more to the investigation than meets the eye. This isn’t just a case. It’s his past, his identity, his very life. And the woman controlling it will not relent until Lee has remembered—everything.

Chorus of Crows

Chorus of Crows

Sharon Wagner

When retired farmer Oren Walton meets a mysterious woman in his old RV, he believes he’s received a final mercy—a brief escape from loneliness, grief, and the slow theft of his body by Parkinson’s disease.

But there’s a problem: his daughter, Sedona, thinks he hallucinated the whole affair. Oren insists the woman is real; Sedona only sees the familiar signs of illness and delusion.

The girl in the RV is just the beginning. Sedona watches her father unravel as stories of strange visitors and malevolent crows escalate into inexplicable farm machinery mishaps, dangerous encounters with intruders, and a battle with a terrifying creature on the porch.

Through her late mother’s diaries, Sedona finds a brief respite from the harsh realities entwining her peculiar new life on the farm. When the land itself begins to feel watchful, Sedona wonders if something else is at work, something that took root long ago at the spot—a place behind the barn that changed the family’s lives forever.

As hallucination and horror blur into one, father and daughter must ask the same question: Is Oren losing his mind, or is there something far worse than madness at play?

The Enigma’s Secret

The Enigma's Secret

Jenn Graham

A murdered lover. A false conviction. A galaxy on the brink of annihilation.

Tim Scott believed his life had ended the night he was framed for murdering the woman he loved. Condemned to rot in a prison orbiting a dead world, he has nothing left—until an alien device called Enigma offers him the one thing he craves: the truth.

But unlocking his memories awakens something far worse. The Aphra—an ancient, machine-born species bent on consuming all biological life—are rising again. And Enigma herself is no machine at all, but the last living fragment of the Aphra’s creators…and their only possible weapon against them.

Now hunted across the stars, Tim and a mismatched crew must chase scattered clues to the fabled Nightfallen—the legendary beings who once shaped the galaxy. If they fail, the Aphra will enslave every mind in existence.

And if they succeed? The truth they uncover may be worse than extinction.
