      A Haunting. A Life Unravelling. A Mystery That Will Change Everything.
      Ghost story/Mystery & Crime

      On the bleak and windswept Cornish coast lies a mysterious property known only as The Crow’s Nest—a house as unsettling as the cliffs that cradle it. Lonely, rugged, and steeped in forgotten history, it’s the kind of place that draws curiosity... and a fair share of fear.

      For Daniel Stourton, a confident young man at the peak of his career as the top salesman at a local estate agent, The Crow’s Nest is just another listing. The kind of property that could secure his future, boost his success, and provide him with the perfect career move. His life is mapped out before him—clear, calculated, and predictable.

      But the moment Daniel places the key into the front door of the old house, everything changes.

      As he steps over the threshold, something shifts in the very fabric of his reality. The house’s eerie presence begins to unravel him, pulling him into a web of dark secrets and forces he can’t explain. What he thought was a simple sale becomes a life-altering journey into a world where the past is never truly gone, and the present is only an illusion.

      As the walls of The Crow’s Nest whisper with the voices of its former inhabitants, Daniel must confront a haunting question: Is the house simply haunted, or is there something more sinister at play?

      One thing is certain: his future is no longer the one he planned.

      A Mystery. A Bond. A Presence That Won't Let Go.
      Suspense/Paranormal/Amateur sleuth

      Three brothers.
      One dead.
      One missing.
      One searching for the truth.
      Thirty years ago, on the wild and unforgiving moors of Dartmoor, Alan Havers died in a tragic accident. His brothers never truly recovered—and Neal Havers never returned.
      Until now.
      When his brother Steven vanishes without a trace, Neal is forced back to the place he’s spent a lifetime trying to forget. But Dartmoor hasn’t forgotten them.
      As Neal searches the windswept landscape for answers, something begins to follow him.
      A presence he can’t explain.
      A voice that feels impossible to ignore.
      A pull leading him toward a truth buried deep in the past.
      Is it grief playing tricks on his mind?
      Or is someone—or something—guiding him?
      The answers lie hidden in a place they once knew so well… and in the secrets locked inside the Secret Letterbox.
      But some truths were never meant to be uncovered.
      And some bonds refuse to die.

      A Soldier. A Lost Memory. A Love That Lingers
      Historical romance/Love triangle/Amnesia

      What happens when everything you knew about yourself disappears—leaving only the echoes of a life you can’t remember? In Flashbulb Memories, John Kemp invites you into the mind of a soldier who awakens from a coma, only to find his past obliterated by psychogenic amnesia. His memories are gone, replaced by fragments—haunting images of war and a love so elusive, it may only exist in his mind.

      As if trapped in a dream he cannot fully recall, the soldier’s memories return in brief flashes—like shifting sea mist—never staying long enough to hold onto. A mystery romance. A devastating loss. Each memory disappears as quickly as smoke from a bonfire, leaving him grasping for something, anything, that will help him make sense of who he was—and who he is now.

      But there’s a catch.

      To move forward, he must confront the fragments of his past—his forgotten identity, his lost love, and the secrets buried in the depths of his mind. The choices he makes in this fractured state will determine whether he can ever truly escape his past and build a future.

      Will he choose to embrace the pieces of his broken history? Or will he risk everything to find something new?

      Flashbulb Memories is a heart-pounding psychological journey that will leave you questioning the very nature of memory, identity, and love. In this unforgettable story, Kemp blurs the lines between what is real and what is imagined, forcing the soldier—and you, the reader—to decide what’s worth holding on to, and what must be let go.

      This is a story that will haunt you long after the final page.
