Welcome to Cabin Green, where the setting is familiar, but the story is completely unexpected. This original, terrifying psychological thriller is the debut horror novel from the author of the Midnight Myths and Fairy Tales Series. Going to Cabin Green alone after the death of his fiancée was Ben's first mistake. His second mistake was tempting fate by saying, "There's no such thing as an evil building." Now he's caught in a nightmare of his own making deep in the woods of Northern Michigan. Even worse, a family history of mental illness makes it impossible for him to know if the ghosts haunting the cabin are real or all in his head. This modern Gothic horror story takes the reader directly into Ben's hellish experience. Is he crazy? Is a ghost haunting him? The only way to find out is to make it to the end of this deep, dark thrill ride that's filled with more twists than a roller coaster. This novel was inspired by a real-life, spooky green cabin in Northern Michigan that's so well-hidden it can't be found by GPS! Content Warning: This isn't a Saw-type torture story, but it does contain gore, sex, profanity, and deeply disturbing psychological themes. For mature readers only. Review for The Haunting of Cabin Green "This book will challenge its readers, and that is a good thing... You are taken on a nightmarish, uncomfortable journey and you soon realize you can't count on the standard rules of storytelling. The author is brave enough to push the envelope and leave you not even guessing the end!" - Goodreads Reviewer Reviews for the Author's Previous Work "Beautifully bewitching... it's a fast-paced, captivating tale, and the writing is exquisite." - Kindle Reviewer "This story is like a witch's spell drawing the reader in." - Kindle Reviewer "Very original... the ending was completely surprising." - Kindle Reviewer "It really whets your appetite for more." - Kindle Reviewer "I felt immersed in the story!" - Kindle Reviewer "Well-written and immediately draws you into the story, with no lag in momentum." - Goodreads Reviewer Excerpt from The Haunting of Cabin Green: A Modern Gothic Horror Novel ...Unsure what the vast blanket of fog was hiding but certain he wanted to live, Ben's limbs stopped moving. 'This is crazy. I know I didn't hit anything.' Another part of his mind refuted this logic. 'Then why am I crawling in the middle of a highway?' As distasteful and terrifying as it was, he'd never be able to live with himself if he didn't uncover the identity of the object - 'not a person' - that had tripped him. Hesitation clawed at every fiber of his being, but he forced his way forward until his right hand brushed a raw, rough surface. He yanked his hand back like it was on fire before regaining control of his actions. 'I can do this.' Ben reached out again, and his fingertips came into tentative contact with the alien object. The moisture in the air hadn't seeped into its skin. His left fist covered his mouth to stop audible proof of his fear from escaping. At the same time, he increased the pressure of his right fingers in a bid to figure out what - or who - had gotten in his way. A crumbling sensation sent shock waves throughout his body. He managed to hold on long enough for a small sliver of something unknown to drop into his palm. Unable to keep his composure any longer, he darted back to the car, careful not to drop the evidence. He slammed the door shut and jammed the locks in place before turning to face the source of his inevitable doom. With his eyes squeezed shut, he uncurled his fist and put the object on display. His left eyelid lifted a fraction of an inch to test the waters before he dove in and allowed both eyes to confront the truth...

Dark Minds

Crime and Punishment in Tudor England tells the story of the enactment of law and its penalties from Henry VII to Elizabeth I. The sixteenth century was remarkable in many ways. In England, it was the century of the Tudor Dynasty. It heralded the Reformation, William Shakespeare, the first appearance of bottled beer in London pubs, Sir Francis Drake, and the Renaissance. Oh, and the Spanish Armadas—all five of them! Yes, five armadas and all failures. It was a watershed century for crime and punishment. Henry VII’s paranoia about the loyalty of the nobility led to military-trained vagrants causing mayhem and murder. Henry VIII’s Reformation meant executions of those refusing to take the Oath of Supremacy. State-controlled religion—summed up through the five reigns as Roman Catholic; Anglo-Catholic; Protestant; Roman Catholic, and Sort of Protestant but I don’t mind so long as you swear the Oath of Supremacy—became an increasingly complex, not to say confusing, issue for ordinary people. Although primary sources are rare and sometimes incomplete, the life of criminals and the punishments meted out to them still fascinates. Read about John Daniell and how he tried to blackmail the Earl of Essex; the Stafford insurrection of 1486, the first serious opposition to the new king; the activities of con-man extraordinaire, Gregory Wisdom, and many more. Crime and punishment didn’t start with the Tudors and this book summarizes judicial practices built on tradition from the Roman occupation. It covers often gory details—what happens to the body when it is beheaded, burned, boiled, or hanged? Arranged in alphabetical order of crimes, it recounts tales of blackmail, infanticide, kidnapping, heresy, and sumptuary laws. Told with occasional low-key humor, the book also includes Tavern Talk, snippets of quirky information. Dip into it at your pleasure.
