Hey,
Through this Sunday, The Everett Exorcism is free — and it's the book where one of my favorite characters first walks on stage.
Father Niccolo Paladina doesn't believe in demons anymore. Three years ago he watched his mentor die screaming during an exorcism in Manila, and ever since he's hidden behind Vatican paperwork — a priest-bureaucrat investigating possession cases from the safety of a Roman desk.
Then a young priest in Everett, Washington goes over everyone's head and begs Rome for help. Niccolo is sent to discipline him, not to perform an exorcism. Never again. But the local bishop is far too calm, the possessed are spreading through town like influenza, and a Church-sanctioned assassin named Arthur Vangeest — a man whose reputation empties rooms — has just arrived.
| ▸ | Free July 1–5 (and free in Kindle Unlimited after) |
| ▸ | Book 1 of the World of Shadows series — the perfect entry point |
| ▸ | Where you meet Arthur Vangeest before everyone else does |
| ▸ | Theological horror that plays it straight — the rosary burns, the demon laughs |
| Grab it free → |
Start here and the rest of the series is waiting whenever you want it.
Continue the series — 99 cents this week
Already know Niccolo and Vangeest? Books two and three run a Kindle Countdown right alongside the free book — just 99 cents each through July 7, then they climb back to full price.
| ▸ | The Vatican Children — Book 2, where the cost of Everett comes due |
| ▸ | The Bishop's Legacy — Book 3, the reckoning the series has been building to |
Also free this week
Want a change of genre on the same dark wavelength? Graveyard of Empires — Book 1 of my military sci-fi series — is also free on Kindle through July 4. Empires in collapse, the soldiers caught in the machinery, and a war that decides what's left standing.

P.S. Tell me — do you read horror for the scares, or for the people who have to survive them? Hit reply, I read every one.
