Matthew Hartmann is a detective, and a Christian. With a wife, a beautiful daughter, whom they both dote up, his career, his belief, he seems to have everything until he is prevented from investigating a series of deaths and he stumbles upon old, dark secrets that lurk within the town he has been brought up in. Suddenly, places and people he has known all his life take on a sinister appearance and the emergence of evil forces becomes apparent to the young detective. When his wife and his child are killed in what seems to have been an accident, Matthew turns to Father Hector, the old Catholic priest who brought Matthew up as almost the closest thing to a son he would have and together, they realise that satanism and unholy cults threaten the very existence of not just Matthew's town, but the Christian kingdom and the wider world. When he is dragged into the fight between good and evil, Matthew not only believes he has God on his side, but also, the Sinner's Redemption, but will it be enough to save humanity? Matthew Decker's debut novel came to him in the form of a dream which he dreamt repeatedly until he decided to start writing it down and this dark and horrifying tale is the result. Fans of tense, good versus evil horror stories will devour this book just as evil and satanic cults are capable of devouring mankind.

You remember Christmases from your childhood, don't you? The garish, shiny wrapping paper, leaving a mince pie for Santa and a carrot for the reindeer, the Christmas hamper being delivered, gawdy trees, paper chains, flashing coloured lights around the window, tinsel hanging from the fireplace, holly and mistletoe hanging over the front door. Yes? Well, that's what this compilation of short stories, poems and photography hopes to recreate for you in it's pages. A good, old fashioned celebration of Christmas from some of our shining stars!

Ava’s job as a mortuary technician in the small, desert town of Killorn is certainly an unusual one, and becomes even more so when strange, disarming events begin to happen to her. The string of weird happenings culminates in bodies going missing from the mortuary where Ava works and the involvement of the local police. Meanwhile, Ava is not only feeling unnerved, but she begins to get downright scared when it seems that someone may be out to harm her. Suspicion grows and her former lover, Nick, sees to be one of those she points the finger at. Meanwhile, matters are complicated further when suspicion falls on the local Native American reservation, one that Ava and Ernest, her boss, visit regularly when assisting at funerals. It is at a reservation funeral that Ava meets a shaman who has been haunting her dreams and who crosses her path more than once when she begins an affair with his fellow tribesman, Grey. Despite Grey’s growing attraction to Ava, he cannot protect her from the frightening events that keep happening to her and when Red, the town’s sheriff cannot produce a logical explanation for what is going on, the only possible answer would be that Ava is being haunted. But by whom and why can the police nor the shaman help her to escape from whatever it is in her past that is putting her in danger in the present? Bodies of Evidence is the second psychological thriller from K.E. Jennings, who signed with Provoco in 2023. Her first novel, THE ONLY ONES LEFT, enjoyed much acclaim, marking her as a force to be reckoned with in the world of psychological, supernatural thriller writing.
