Sound Sample Saturday-- Forever Haunted, Chapter 1

 Sorry to cut Forever's Too Long Short, but we're skipping to Forever Haunted. 

Ghost stories take many forms. I've always preferred the stories where they are tragic figures, and I've often been interested in cold cases and the struggle to investigate them. 

So Rafael meets a lovey ghost of a flapper who is compelled to keep reliving her murder, and he'll do what it takes to help free her. The first chapter does contain spoilers of a sort from Forever's Too Long, so if you haven't read it and don't want to know how the detective is around in this one, you might want to wait until you've finished it.

On the other hand, if you just want to find out how attention-grabbing a first chapter can be, press play

Sound Sample Saturday - Chapter 8 Sure To Give Offense

Welcome back to Sound Sample Saturday

"Don't you just hate it when a plan comes together?" That could be the thought going through the mind of our hero Rafael Jones as he finds out the smuggled art and the cult are really part of the same sinister plot. 

Last time we left him he'd landed up in the 'frying pan', when he'd tried to infiltrate the cult that was recruiting Eugene's employees. The sickly, strange cultists had managed to capture him. Now Rafael's about to come face-to-face with their spiritual leader, a man long believed dead, and is about to realize he's gone from frying pan and into the fire!

Chapter 8 - SURE TO GIVE OFFENSE

Alas, as the title of this entry (and its predecessors) have hinted, the 'free samples' of "Forever's Too Long" is now at an end. The story however, still has a ways to go. Will Rafael survive? Can he save himself not only physically but spiritually? And can he keep his friend Eugene out of the clutches of Rasputin and Yekaterina?

To find out the answers, you'll need to get your own copy of "Forever's Too Long" at one of the links below (for those who do not have access to Audible or Itunes, I've supplied links for paperback and the e-book versions as well):

Sound Sample Saturday - Chapter 7 Forever's Too Long - Cult Following

Welcome back to Sound Sample Saturday

         It seemed like a simple job. Go in, get some evidence of wrongdoing-- there's always wrongdoing by cult  leaders-- and present it to Eugene's former employees to get them to get their lives back on track. 

    But Rafael had no idea how wrong things were done behind the facade of the visiting room. Or what a familiar beauty he would find there.
