LIES BEYOND NOW AVAILABLE!

Do you remember the first time Death pointed his bony finger at you?

Lies Beyond is a collection of stories that welcomes you to stare back into the shadowy face of the Grim Reaper; to deal with that old, faithful foe of mankind.

Explore the other side with:

  • The First Three Seconds, where a mad scientist will stop at nothing to rip a hole in the veil that lies between this life and the next

  • Bedguard, where trouble brewing on the horizon of David and Anna's marriage has causes that stem from beyond the natural (and from, perhaps, under the bed)

  • Empty, where two people lost in the underground catacombs of France come upon an ageless cult determined to grow their ranks at all costs

And more horrors...

These stories will haunt you, delight you, and make you think… So, dear reader, would you take a trip across the old River Styx? Would you stare back a while into the hollow eyes of death? Would you take a chance and see what Lies Beyond?
