The Dark Island (ePub)

Two years have passed in England since the events that brought paranormal evil to southern England. It also brought together retired Chief Inspector, Geoffrey Spencer, and internationally renowned Psychic, Caroline De Winter, two people from vastly different backgrounds. (See 'Queen Anne's Curse')

Now, as the memories fade, we find Caroline and Geoffrey recently married and embarking on their honeymoon to the idyllic Mediterranean island of Crete. Evil forces quickly shatter their honeymoon, posing a threat to Caroline, Geoffrey, and their friends. All this unrest seems to stem from a contaminated area at Rodin point, a few miles outside the city. Since 1944, a past top secret site run by the German SS and staffed by a team of top physicists has been closed it to the public, and it is widely believed that it is highly toxic, even now containing lethal doses of radiation.

In Crete, Caroline and Geoffrey make friends with the local police captain, Dimitris and his English wife, Angela, while visiting a tourist spot. But things take an ominous turn when a young teenager appears at the site and Caroline realises she is the only one who can see her. Within days, the idyllic honeymoon takes a darker turn. It turns out that Dimitris' father was also a commander in the same precinct and vanished mysteriously, allegedly killed in a shootout with German deserters. However, they denied his wife the chance to see the body or attend the funeral.

As Dimitris tries to discover the truth, Caroline discovers shocking evidence that changes everything, but she cannot tell Dimitris or even her husband without putting their lives in danger. A German female tourist arrives who is not all she appears to be, and a columnist from a national news magazine, complicate matters. All from different backgrounds, they all have a connection with the island mystery, but are their interests in discovering the truth or suppressing it?

All turn to Caroline for answers. Caroline must navigate a hard path to soothe the unease in the spirit world and ensure that the secret of Ronin Point remains undisclosed. The Dark Island is a book that draws on factual information and follows three separate time lines, taking the reader from the end of WW2 to the heart of America's space program in the 60s. This book is one of the most complex ones that I have written. It will keep you guessing until the shocking Finale.
