SHADOWS WITHIN A Psychological Thriller Set In A Town of Secrets "The whispers of the past are never truly silenced. In Hollow Creek, they've only just begun to scream." When a quiet town becomes the stage for a series of ritualistic murders, Detective Sarah Williams is pulled into a waking nightmare. Each body is a grotesque display-painstakingly arranged, drenched in religious symbolism. But behind the blood lies a more disturbing truth: the killer believes he's saving souls. At the center of it all is Chris... a young man tormented by psychic visions that connect him directly to the killer's mind. His ability may be the only key to stopping the carnage... but it's also making him a target. As Sarah races against time to unravel the mysteries of the sinister "Paradise Found club" and the powerful "Visconti Syndicate", she uncovers something even darker: an ancient entity known only as "the Serpent"... a force of pure malevolence that has set its sights on Chris. "The killer was just the beginning. Now, the real horror has awakened." "Shadows Within" is a psychological horror thriller steeped in the supernatural, where sanity unravels, evil lurks beneath the surface, and no one leaves Hollow Creek unchanged. Perfect for fans of: "The Silent Patient" by Alex Michaelides "The Haunting of Hill House" by Shirley Jackson "Stephen King's darkest tales of cosmic terror" "Do you dare confront the shadows within?"

S. Payton: Turning Mid-Life Crises into Mid-Air Thrillers S. Payton, a small-town Indiana boy with an eclectic resume that reads like a choose-your-own-adventure novel, has traded in airline turbulence for literary suspense. Though not a typical sci-fi fan, Payton's fascination with AI has led him to pen his debut novel, 'Ghost in the Machine: Human Consciousness Hangs in the Balance' - a techno-thriller that will leave you questioning your Wi-Fi password. Hailing from Paoli, Indiana, Payton's journey to authorship has been anything but ordinary. After graduating from Ball State University, he bounced from radio DJ to commercial airline pilot, with a few pit stops in sales along the way. The pandemic grounded his aviation career, but ignited a passion for writing that even his high school English teachers wouldn't have predicted. With a stack of unpublished novels gathering dust, Payton is unleashing his storytelling prowess upon the world, one fast-paced thriller at a time. His debut novel promises a wild ride, blending cutting-edge technology with timeless human dilemmas. Get ready to experience S. Payton's unique blend of humor, suspense, and a little bit of Indiana charm. P.S. If you see him on a plane, don't panic. He's probably just plotting his next novel.
