Asylum

About Asylum:

The child’s hand groping out of the earth is undoubtedly real. As real as Cabdi’s own hand, when it lay on the earth after the machete fell, long ago.

But this hand is alive. And it isn’t in a war-zone. It’s in the playground of a school, just outside the grounds of the English psychiatric hospital where Cabdi is now held. And the man who is stamping on the moving hand is a pigeater.

Pigeaters are in charge of everything. As an accidental asylum seeker, Cabdi is friendless in a country he does not know. He cannot speak English. But he knows that he should not have gone into the playground. He should not have seen the hand in the earth. And whatever lies behind this, it is not his war.

He walks away.

Why should the crime have a witness, anyway?

==============
Asylum goes to dark places. It is a dark book. It deals with the plight of child who is fleeing from war and finds himself caught up in exploitation and abuse. It deals with loss and danger and many faces of evil. But it is also a story about resilience and survival.

The Line Between

About The Line Between:

In this frighteningly believable thriller from New York Times bestselling author Tosca Lee, an extinct disease re-emerges from the melting Alaskan permafrost to cause madness in its victims. For recent apocalyptic cult escapee Wynter Roth, it’s the end she’d always been told was coming.

When Wynter Roth is turned out of New Earth, a self-contained doomsday cult on the American prairie, she emerges into a world poised on the brink of madness as a mysterious outbreak of rapid early onset dementia spreads across the nation.

As Wynter struggles to start over in a world she’s been taught to regard as evil, she finds herself face-to-face with the apocalypse she’s feared all her life—until the night her sister shows up at her doorstep with a set of medical samples. That night, Wynter learns there’s something far more sinister at play and that these samples are key to understanding the disease.

Now, as the power grid fails and the nation descends into chaos, Wynter must find a way to get the samples to a lab in Colorado. Uncertain who to trust, she takes up with former military man Chase Miller, who has his own reasons for wanting to get close to the samples in her possession, and to Wynter herself.

Filled with action, conspiracy, romance, and questions of whom—and what—to believe, The Line Between is a high-octane story of survival and love in a world on the brink of madness.

How can you trust the person in the mirror when the eyes looking back aren’t your own?

Stephanie Courtland has two very secret, very dangerous girlfriends who haunt her life with extreme compulsions and mysterious blackouts. She doesn’t question what she does during these periods, but she dreams of blood on her hands.

Marcus Graham is an ultra-wealthy investor and his selection of Courtland’s advertising agency for a multi-million-dollar project is motivated by her creativity and beauty. The deal is a dangerous one: Graham’s former agency doesn’t like losing and will do almost anything, including murder, to regain his business. Courtland’s girlfriends react poorly to anything that threatens her and if she loses control of them what price will she be willing to pay? She’ll need to decide quickly – they’re all about to be caught up in a string of gruesome murders and a pair of killers heading for their doorstep.

About JACK by Carter

Jack, a loyal and loving Boxer, becomes an out-of-control destructive machine days after contracting rabies from a raccoon in his family’s backyard. Jack attacks his owner, 17-year-old Katy, and her childhood friend, Peyton, and a bloody race for survival ensues as the terrified girls find themselves severely injured and trapped in a bedroom without any means of calling for help.

The life-or-death situation is a shock considering the endearing nature of this story. Jack, a rescue dog, is the perfect companion for Katy and a neighborhood favorite.

Jack is an extremely loyal and protective dog. He saves both Katy and Peyton from predatory acts and becomes a hero in the neighborhood for his fearlessness.

But one day Jack is left alone outside and is bit behind the ear by a raccoon. When Katy’s mom neglects to take him to the vet, Jack takes a turn. Katy and Peyton notice Jack becoming restless in the backyard. When they open the door, he attacks them and slices into Peyton’s wrist creating an arterial bleed.

Peyton is severely injured but cannot get help as the two girls end up trapped in an bedroom as Jack violently tries to claw his way into the room through the door and nearby windows. Katy tries her best to care for Peyton’s wound, but she has already lost a lot of blood. After several hours, Katy considers shooting Jack with her mom’s pistol but instead works out a daring escape so she can get to her cell phone and call for help.

Peyton runs outside to escape Jack breaking through the bathroom window and collapses on the front lawn.

Jack vanishes. Meanwhile, Peyton is rushed to the hospital and is treated for her injuries. Left to pick up the pieces, Katy works with local animal control to bait Jack out of hiding in a nearby trail. When Jack comes out of hiding, the unthinkable happens.
