The Scribe of Shadows
Author:Bernard Webb
I'm a horror author with a secret: I write in total darkness, a ritual to ward off a crippling paranoia that someone is stealing my words. But my paranoia has become my terrifying reality. I just received a letter from the main character of my unpublished novel. He's alive. He thinks I'm God. And he's trying to break through the page to meet his maker. Now, every word I write ripples into the real world, and I'm losing control of the story... and my sanity.

To save the city's stolen souls, Deon must forge an impossible alliance with the monster he was meant to destroy, risking a bond that could either sever the Warden's chains or shackle them both to an even darker fate.

Author:Jared Dunn
He called her fat. He called her stupid. He cheated on her with his student and discarded her like an old experiment. Jake, a brilliant PhD candidate, thought he was untouchable. He didn't realize that Elara, the woman he scorned, was a master of a different kind of science: the science of revenge. She would dismantle his life piece by piece, using his own secrets as her weapons. Twenty years later, when he thought his past was buried, she's back to deliver the final, devastating lesson. His downfall wouldn't be loud or violent—it would be a quiet, academic dissection of his very existence.

This ability throws her into the path of Asterias, a cold and dangerously handsome agent from the secret order that polices these demonic incursions. Forced into an uneasy alliance, they must unravel a conspiracy tied to her father's mysterious death, a conspiracy that will drag them through high-tech heists and demonic cults, blurring the line between justice and revenge.

It took my best friend. Now, it wears his memories and whispers my name in the dark. I built its cage, and now I'm trapped inside with it.
