  • Angela van Breemen - Revenge is not Enough
    Nov 8 2025

    Revenge can’t undo what was done.


    When young psychic Emma Jackson experiences a terrifying vision of a teenage girl being raped, she is shaken to the core. As her husband, David Harris, tries to comfort her, his worry increases when her shattered voice whispers, “Her name was Maggie.” David questions the wisdom of his team of investigators using the paranormal to solve cold cases.

    Emma and David, and Bryan, a retired police office and his wife, Laura, have been working together with New Elgan Police Service to solve cold cases.


    They learn that Maggie was a young woman who went missing twenty years ago and has moved on to the afterlife.

    During a powerful séance, she takes over Emma’s body and demands the investigative team take on her case to find her children.


    Except, at sixteen years of age at the time of her disappearance she had no children.


    When the team uncovers a sinister baby ring where young women are kidnapped and forced to breed made-to-order children for the elite, they are shocked to learn their nemesis, the Dark Hands of Anubis is behind the human trafficking.


    Emma insists on continuing the case, but isn’t Emma’s sanity and peace of mind worth more than solving a cold case from the beyond?


    Revenge may not be enough … when the cost is way too high.

  • Tara Hodgson - At Least I'm Trying
    Oct 11 2025

    When the volleyball hits the floor mere inches from Reese’s hands, her dreams of playing

    college ball shatter.


    After consecutive failures on the court, in the classroom, and in her relationships, she’s done

    playing the part of perfect daughter, perfect student, and perfect athlete. It’s time for a new life.

    Enter Cassie Brentwood.


    Bold. Reckless. Free. Cassie is everything Reese isn’t yet longs to be. They quickly become

    friends and Cassie introduces her to Liam, a mysterious guy from Snapchat. Blinded by his love

    bombing and the desperation to shed her perfect image, Reese plunges head first into their world.

    It feels instantly thrilling… until it’s not.


    Girls are disappearing from nearby towns, however no one in their quiet small town seems

    concerned.


    But when Liam’s behaviour grows darker, Reese’s new life begins to unravel. She ignores the

    warnings. The red flags. The little voice screaming to her that something’s not right. Until she’s

    far from home, trapped in a nightmare she can’t escape.


    With no one left to trust, Reese has to fight to reclaim the life she was so eager to leave behind.

    She wanted freedom. Now, she just wants to go home.


    At least she has to try.


    Told with searing honesty and lyrical depth, At Least I’m Trying is a poignant novel about mental

    health, girlhood, and what happens when the version of yourself you’ve worked so hard to

    become starts to fall apart.
