HORROR WITH HEART
paranormal thrills, real emotion
I create characters that are just as real as I can make them and then drop in a paranormal element my characters can't ignore.
In addition to a physical threat, my novels all contain a heavy dose of psychological tension. The characters must look inside themselves to find their best before they can save the day. That aspect of my novels is where the heart in HORROR WITH HEART comes from.
My first published novel is available as a paperback from Quest Books, an imprint of Regal Crest Enterprises. It's set in Albuquerque, a fictional pueblo, and the Anasazi ruins in Chaco Canyon. Here's a little bit about it.

A power awakens, a destiny begins
When lightning strikes Barry Andrews as he hikes among petroglyphs in Albuquerque, it's more than an accident of nature. It's a calling. The surge of energy awakens abilities he's carried since birth. Earth's fate is now tied to Barry's, and Barry's destiny is linked to the past.
A thousand years ago, the ancestors of today's Pueblo Indians built an advanced civilization in Chaco Canyon. Seeking to tame their harsh environment, they used the precise alignment of their pueblos to tap into powers they weren't meant to control. Their meddling almost ended life on Earth, and the Anasazi abandoned Chaco Canyon to protect man from himself.
But the pueblo ruins still hold power, and man still desires what he shouldn't have. One man, driven by greed, exploits ancient secrets. Now Barry must join forces with a Native American elder, become a warrior, and save the earth.
