Twisty Tales That Move And Elevate
The elderly but spunky Maybell Johnson has lived in New Orleans her entire life. Widowed fifteen years ago, she now lives alone with her dog, Camille. She is preparing herself for what is left of her life when a stranger, who picks her at random, attempts to end it. Both get more than they bargained for.
Margot Landry is a psychotherapist, and Connie Minae is her new client. Margot records every online session. Something is off about Connie and as Margot thinks she figures it out, Connie is murdered. As the mystery about Connie deepens, Margot and her new best friend, Joan Pierse, are receiving threatening messages as they scour the session videos to find the truth...one that was there the whole time.
Maggie Knight never wanted to be a mother. Her only passion was being an FBI agent. It gave her purpose, meaning, and an identity until one reckless decision gets her teammates killed and her seriously injured... destroying her career.
After being cast out of the Bureau, her circle shrinks down to the one person she ignored while pursuing her career: her only child, Brian.
And now, someone is stalking Maggie. Though she should ask for help, that’s never been her personality. Instead, she sets a trap. And, like her last career decision, she’s not the only one she is putting at risk by doing so.
Once her son is pulled into the fray, Maggie will have to decide what matters more. Will it be the thrill of the hunt or protecting a child she neglected?
The answer maybe both.
But when the line between protector and predator begins to blur, a truth becomes impossible to ignore. It isn’t just about who Maggie used to be, it’s about who she’s becoming.
No matter the outcome nor cost, Maggie Knight will not allow herself to become a victim.

'Hell Is A Farm'
Rural Alabama, 1958.
The fields around the Duke farm hide more than failed crops and rusted machinery.
Eunice and Cleo Duke are respected foster parents in a God-fearing town near Huntsville. But beneath the surface of their isolated farm lies a trail of buried secrets and bloodshed stretching back years.
Sisters Rose and Violet Martin have already survived a brutal foster care system that has tossed them from farm to farm. When they are placed with the Dukes, Rose knows immediately something is wrong. The farm and the “family” feel more off than the foster families Rose has become accustomed to.
As local officer Michael Houston investigates a string of disappearances, he finds himself pulled toward the Duke farm and directly into the sights of someone determined to frame him and it’s not the Dukes.
But Rose has seen too much to stay silent for long.
Armed with only her instincts, pieces of evidence, and a fierce determination to protect her little sister, Rose must outwit the monsters hiding in plain sight before Violet becomes the next child to vanish.
