Hardcover, signed limited to 100 numbered copies
Published 2013 by DarkFuse
Book 2 of The Border Trilogy
Young Lulu Lavender has been stolen from her home, her family murdered in the night. With the resources and attention of the sheriff's department consumed by the high-profile case of a missing white teenager from a wealthy family, it falls to rural sheriff's lieutenant Buck Shelton and his small staff to investigate.
She's coming…
The Lavender family's nearest neighbor—Oliver Bowles, a college professor with secrets of his own—becomes Buck's prime suspect. But Oliver is not what he seems and soon accompanies Buck on an excursion into the literal and figurative darkness of Arizona's storm-drenched southern border.
She's almost here…
Buck's investigation leads him into a world of bizarre powers and ancient struggles with tendrils reaching into the present, of border vigilantes and drug dealers, of the lust for power and glory and the most violent impulses within the human heart. When the missing white girl returns, the only thing certain is that people are going to die…

by Jeffrey J. Mariotte
Hardcover, signed limited to 100 numbered copies
Published 2014 by DarkFuse
An explosion has stolen Phoenix police detective Annie O'Brien's hearing, but left her with a preternaturally heightened sense of empathy. Surrounded by emotions she can't cope with and unable to do her job anymore, Annie accepts a job in a small New Mexico town, away from the big city and her former life.
But that job—proving the innocence of a man accused of a double murder—turns out to be more complicated than expected. And so does life in the country outside the small town of Drummond, not least because it's located near the ruins of New Dominion, a border town that was, decades earlier, the site of a devastating massacre.
Now an ancient evil is rising from the ashes of New Dominion, and Annie, haunted by tragedy and threatened by enemies both human and demonic, must stop its ascension...but will she survive?
