Until the Sea Shall Free Them
Summary
The men on the SS Marine Electric sailed into a storm in February 1983 not knowing that they would make history - at a great cost in lives. Just three men survived the wreck of the Marine Electric off the shores of Virginia and they found that their struggle had just begun once they got back to shore. Blamed for the wreck, they fought back and broke a code of silence that had covered up sloppy ship inspections for decades and revealed the flaws in old World War II rust buckets that were still at sea long past their functional lifetime. A story of adventure at sea and survival in the court systems, Until the Sea Shall Free Them takes on the issues The Perfect Storm presented.

Pyromaniac
Summary
Dan Wells was Hickman County’s High School star quarterback and was close to graduating. Dan was the biggest player outside of sports if you know what I mean, and wasn't interested in being tied down by no girl. Marriage and a baby was the furthest thing on his mind. All he cared about was sports, and getting laid until Hickman County High's prettiest cheerleader Rhonda who was the most popular girl in school hooked up with Dan for a night of hot passion which led to an unwanted pregnancy, and a lot of shedding tears between both of them. Dan was looking forward to a full athletics scholarship to a college of his choice, but now that there was a baby staring them both in the eyes wanting their love, and attention all they both seen was how one moment in time destroyed their dreams of freedom. Abortion was discussed, but neither one had the guts to follow through with it. Their freedom that they both cherished was about to come to a screeching halt because they didn't enter the thought of using protection so now they both must suffer the consequences. After the baby was born, and they both got jobs, and had a one bedroom apartment to raise their unwanted baby. After weeks of blaming one another with tears of sadness they decided to give the baby a name which was not out of love. They named their new baby "Demon" because instead of taking the blame for their mistake they cast the blame on the baby for the mess they got their own selves into. As the baby got older, and was sent out in the cruel world to school, and having a name as Demon, this would only backlash on his parents, and everyone that teased, and called him names. Resentment for his parents was at an all-time high that when he became a teenager all the anger and frustration that he bottled up inside was going to be unleashed at a hellish level. For the coldness that his parent’s bestowed upon him he was going to make his parents or anyone that stood in his way pay.

Dead Frost
Summary
The world ended on October the seventh, 2011. Not with a bang, as some theorists predicted, but with a whimper. There was no fruition of a Mayan prophecy, no alien attack, no terrorist uprising, and no supervolcano eruption. It was a simple virus that finished mankind off; a superflu that couldn't be cured once it had been contracted. A small group of survivors find themselves struggling to come to terms with the new world around them. Living in a disused army barracks, the group survive in relative safety, sending scavengers for food and supplies only when necessary. Shane Bridge had, until recently, been incarcerated in a maximum-security prison, but now that he is out, and the monotony of day-to-day life has become unbearable, the time has come to abandon the confines of the barracks and begin the search for his family. But death is never far away, and the flesh-eating hordes are the least of Shane's worries. The Frost has begun....

I See The Dead
Summary
The Blevins family had been searching many months for their dream home out in the country because the city life just wasn't their cup of tea. Then just as they were about to give up there was a sign next to a gravel road that said, "Sudden death in the family caused our beautiful home to be put up for sale, please don't pass up this great deal of a lifetime." "John, turn here, maybe this is what we've been searching for," replied his wife. "Are you sure? This gravel road looks long and it's beginning to storm, why don't we just go home and try in the morning when the weather is better," said her tired husband. "We're already here, we may as well check it out and get out of this rain, besides the rain will probably let up by the time we're through looking at the house," Mary asked in a reassuring tone of voice. "Fine, you win, let's check it out," said her frustrated husband. John drove on up the muddy gravel road as the storm got more intense and could barely see the house because of the rain, his car inched closer to the front of the house. John and Mary's son chimed in and said, "Mom! Dad! Look over there?" "Look at what?" said his mother. "There's a man walking in the front door with an ax," said Billy in a frightened voice. "I don't see anyone Billy, you must be imagining things," replied his mother. "I'm not imagining things, I saw a man entering the house," said Billy frustratingly.
