Werewolf Nights

2020

by Mari Hamill

Threatened by financial ruin, widowed bakery owner Catherine Mercy leads a solitary life with more interest in reading about werewolf lore than in finding a man. Her one true love disappeared after high school, and her now deceased husband kept her trapped in the house, claiming that a werewolf might hunt her down one day, just as her grandmother repeatedly warned her.


When Hollywood interrupts the town’s monotony by shooting a werewolf movie on location, Catherine decides to audition. Already in her thirties, she feels ridiculous trying to become an actress but lands the leading role. Catherine’s daily routine turns into a hair-raising adventure as fame begins to monitor her wanderings, and she falls for her sexy co-star, Greg Byron, in spite of the actor’s neon warning sign that flashes conceited womanizer.


Just when romance sparkles, a wolf bites Greg. While Greg’s features turn lupine, Catherine discovers a resemblance between the movie script and her family’s history. Afraid, Catherine recruits werewolf expert Steve to figure out if the movie’s werewolf legend is real and Wolfern, the werewolf her grandmother spoke about, has finally come for her. If it is, Greg will turn into a dangerous werewolf. Only finding a way to undo Greg’s curse and destroying Wolfern before the next full moon can save their love and their lives.


Werewolf Nights blends fantasy, intrigue, and passion to create a chilling, unique story.

Coming Up for Air

1969

by George Orwell

George Bowling, the hero of Orwell's comic novel, is a middle-aged insurance salesman who lives in an average English suburban row house with a wife and two children. One day, after winning some money from a bet, he goes back to the village where he grew up, to fish for carp in a pool he remembers from thirty years before.

The pool, alas, is gone, the village has changed beyond recognition, and the principal event of his holiday is an accidental bombing by the RAF.
