Print: $10.93 Dead Scared is a horror story containing strong elements of mystery, humour, love and sex. Told from the viewpoint of David Donaldson, descending into madness while incarcerated in a psychiatric institution, two mysteries are posed from the very start. Why is he locked up? - what set him on the slippery slope to madness? And why is a particular stretch of new motorway prone to accidents, some of them horrifically fatal?
Not for the faint-hearted, Dead Scared will by turns horrify you with its vision of deep evil, mystify you as it portrays events through David Donaldson’s increasingly distorted viewpoint, and delight you with its light-hearted descriptions of otherwise normal human life.

Print: $11.95 Love on the Line is a comedy about sex. Intrigue, assignations, sex in unusual places, unexpected humour, unexpected love, unexpected consequences – all these factors spring to life as a cast of characters turn to the internet to look for that spark missing from their lives. The style of the book is comedy laced with explicit sex and glimpses of deep unhappiness which drives most of the characters actions. Be warned – once you have read Love on the Line, you will never be able to use a messenger program again without experiencing nervous twinges of doubt, and you may never be able to look a webcam squarely in the eye again.
