When paranormal investigator, Mike Travis and his pregnant wife Beth relocate to an idyllic cottage in rural Monmouthshire, they didn't bargain for a sitting tenant. The spirit of Adain Powell, brutally murdered by the lecherous and ruthless Judge Llewellyn in 1654, still haunts the cottage and adjoining wood, unable to rest until the truth surrounding her death and the wrongful accusation of her husband for her murder are brought to light. In the cellar of The Black Mountain Inn, another is stirring. Judge Thomas Llewellyn's grave is unearthed and his old bones, his very old bones are the focus of black magic ritual intending to bring about his return. It is soon more than Mike and Beth's new home that is at stake; it is their lives and the life of their unborn daughter. Long Shadows is a story of both ancient and present day evil: to be read with the lights on. Praise for Jan McDonald This is, without a doubt, the best Paranormal / Occult book I have read in a long time. This book has mystery, paranormal, occult, and a bit of romance all rolled into one book. The book is well written, easy to read, all parts of the book fit together nicely. The characters are well written, believable, and as far as the story will allow, well detailed. Review from The Crowsmoor Curse

An adult vampire love story Ex Catholic priest, Beckett, is out for blood. Vampire blood. History is repeating itself and Beckett enlists the help of Dr Lane Dearing, herself a powerful vampire, in an effort to save the beautiful Katerini from a sadistic and vicious Undead. Their struggle leads them from the mysterious mountains of the Brecon Beacons in Wales to an isolated monastery in rural Greece where they encounter one of the Ancient Ones who has his own reasons for wanting Katerini. Midnight Wine is a vampire tale of love, revenge and sacrifice. Vampires are real. They exist. And they are out there...

Turn the lights down low and prepare to shiver while you read these all new and true stories. You will find encounters with demons, shadow figures, dolls and much more. They will certainly play on your mind. Oh - and was that a footstep on the stair? You're alone? You think?

Vampires... and a werewolf Acceptance didn't sit well with ex-Catholic priest Beckett. And being a vampire wasn't going to come easy. Struggling with his new life he finds himself helping another whose life has been dramatically changed. Jude Mason is suffering from Post Traumatic Stress Disorder; but Beckett and the elegant vampire Lane Dearing believe that there is more to it. Much more. Their efforts to understand and help the man are hampered by unfinished business. In the tiny monastery in Greece, where they believed they had ended the killing spree of ruthless and savage vampires, one has survived. They must return to finish what began years previously with the death of the beautiful newly turned vampire, Katerini. In Greece, there is as much to lose as to be won and with the stakes high someone has to pay the price.

High in the Carpathian Mountains, Beckett's nemesis, Vasile Tepes, is contemplating the unthinkable - the resurrection of his ancestor, Vlad Tepes, better known - thanks to the fiction classic - as Dracula. Meanwhile, Lane, Beckett's partner and love, still lies in Greece in the Long Sleep, healing from the near-fatal wounds received at the hands of Tepes, leaving Beckett to watch over things back home, and wait. Vasile Tepes has invited the elders of the other vampire Houses to a meeting at his mountain home where war is on the agenda - war between the Born and the Created vampires. And he has his eye on his first target - The Sanctuary, where newly-turned vampires can find help. In this final part of the Father Beckett Trilogy, the future of the Created vampires hangs in the balance. Lives will be lost, lives will be changed forever, and bonds will be strengthened in the final battle in the depths of the Transylvanian winter. Fans of the Mike Travis novels will be pleased to find him here in this cross-over story.

'I have been obsessed with this man for years. My parents say I have a crush on him. I have been telling them it is not a crush. It is reverence. Reverence not only for the man but so too for his talent: his poetry. If anyone asks me whether I have a wish, I will say, if only I can meet the poet Beretzkoy.' These are the wistful words of Tanya Brodovskaya. Her wish comes true, although the poet is a married man and the father of two sons, and soon a heady, passionate love affair begins. In a small, dilapidated dacha in a village south of Moscow, played out against a grim backcloth of Stalin's demonic rule of Russia, Tanya and her dissident poet live their love to the full, stealing precious and wonderful time, finding happiness in each other's arms although he continues to live with his wife and sons. But black clouds gather. The Man of Steel's policies threaten the couple's idyll. Their love will survive; they know it will. But will they?

Announcing the third in the Mike Travis paranormal investigator series A longer pause and then a lowered tone. "Jesus Christ, Josh. What have you found?" An even longer pause. "The Ark of the Covenant." When paranormal investigator Mike Travis answers a call for help, he doesn't anticipate being flung headlong into Ancient Egyptian secrets in The Sacred Ark. An old acquaintance needs his help in his search for proof that his controversial theories are correct, theories which have resulted in him being ridiculed by the world of archaeology. Mike finds himself in the heart of the Sinai desert pursued by government and Vatican hit men, all desperate to find the same thing, the Ark of the Covenant. What secrets does it hide and where will it take him? Praise for Jan McDonald This is, without a doubt, the best Paranormal / Occult book I have read in a long time. This book has mystery, paranormal, occult, and a bit of romance all rolled into one book. The book is well written, easy to read, all parts of the book fit together nicely. The characters are well written, believable, and as far as the story will allow, well detailed. Review from The Crowsmoor Curse About Jan McDonald Jan lives close to the Welsh borders which have their own mystical quality and provide endless resources in the way of legends and folklore surrounding paranormal experiences. She loves all things paranormal and has read the best: Dennis Wheatley, Stephen King, Edgar Allan Poe, Bram Stoker and all those authors that excel in the creepy or downright scary world of paranormal events. When she embarked on the Mike Travis series (The Crowsmoor Curse, Long Shadows and The Sacred Ark) she realised that the field of paranormal investigation is more than we see on the popular TV programmes. So in order to provide compelling ghost hunting tales but with the greatest accuracy, Jan trained as a Paranormal Investigator and has studied parapsychology.

An Evocative French Love Story Men leave, says Bella. There is Jean-Louis - French, a successful Paris lawyer and wealthy, elegant and a good-looker, but arrogant, selfish and scornful of 'losers'. And he is married and the father of two daughters. Colin - English, a writer, cultured, kind and protective - steps into Bella's life, but in his own words, "I always run. I always have to be elsewhere, in some other place." Will Jean-Louis leave his wife? Will Colin stop running? Bella, alone this winter at her guest house on the beautiful Normandy coast of France, recalls words once said - pray that your loneliness will spur you into finding something to live for, something great enough to die for - and she hopes that this 'something' will be either Jean-Louis or Colin. Romantic, intelligent and truly evocative of the sights, sounds and tastes of rural Normandy; Bella...A French Life will stay with you long after you have finished reading it.
