Series

Assaulted Souls Trilogy
Amnesiac Nathan Leer and enigmatic warrior Velvet Jones form an unlikely alliance after a nuclear bomb explosion destroys most of the world. Struggling to survive in a post-apocalyptic wasteland, they narrowly escape deadly radiation poisoning, savage human tribes, mutant animals, and raging zombies, only to discover their problems are just beginning. Quarantined on a military vessel, they are poked, prodded, watched 24/7, and injected with a drug designed to build loyal and subservient super warriors. Suffering violent and murderous side effects, and teetering on the edge of insanity, they must fight the most epic and horrific battle of their lives. They narrowly escape a man-made utopia only to discover the real horror has just begun. Fighting off uncontrollable rage caused by the drug intended to create super warriors, they’re pursued by a megalomaniac government gone mad. Giant deadly insects; savage, opportunistic tribes; and their own inner demons propel them to want to kill themselves and each other. A lightning-paced, action-packed, and gritty exploration of a terrifying existence in a wasteland resulting from humankind's stupidity.

The Rage Trilogy
Kathleen Freeborne lives a perfectly normal life until the day her paranormal team investigates the reportedly haunted King’s Playhouse Theater in Prince Edward Island, Canada. On the morning of the investigation, she suffers a terrifying panic attack, and begins believing people are out to malign her. Events escalate from bad to worse when the team arrives at the theater only to discover the caretaker ranting incomprehensible religious gibberish. Shortly after his departure, they see a bloodied and battered apparition and flee, only to discover that strange things are happening around town. After a series of gruesome murders, they embark down a dark and treacherous path. As they approach the horrifying truth surrounding deadly rage-filled attacks, dangerous roadblocks quickly emerge as Kathleen realizes their inner demons are preventing them from getting to the bottom of the sudden and violent outbursts. Comprising extensive research from real-life paranormal investigations, The Rage Trilogy serves up in macabre fashion a chilling and mind-bending exploration of haunted happenings that paranormal investigators—in the face of grave consequences—choose to confront regularly.
