  • In the middle of the night, in a house on a quiet street in suburban Minneapolis, intruders silently murder Luke Ellis’s parents and load him into a black SUV. The operation takes less than two minutes. Luke will wake up at The Institute, a secret Government facility, in a room that looks just like his own, except there’s no window. And outside his door are other doors, behind which are other kids with special talents - telekinesis, telepathy - who got to this place the same way Luke did: Kalisha and Nick, George and Iris, ten-year-old Avery Dixon. The director, Mrs. Sigsby, and her staff are ruthlessly dedicated to extracting from these children the force of their extranormal gifts. There are no scruples here. If you go along, you get tokens for the vending machines. If you don’t, punishment is brutal.  Luke becomes more and more desperate to get out and get help...but no one has ever escaped from the Institute...
  • What if the Roman Catholic Church got it all wrong? What is the terrible mystery of The Prophecy, a recently discovered three-thousand- year-old papyrus document and how is it related to the Third Secret of Fatima? Why does the Cardinal Secretary of State at the Vatican stop at nothing to destroy these documents to keep them from the world?  Is he insane - or is he truly Satan's disciple? Australian priest Peter LoSarus and Sister Christina find themselves caught up in the struggle to find The Prophecy and reveal its secrets before they are discovered and destroyed. Their search takes them around the world and into danger as the forces of evil contrive against them in a frantic race to find the truth before it is lost forever.

  • John Barrett, anchorman for the city's most-watched newscast, is a man suddenly lost in a town he thought he owned. His comfortable world is being jarred to the breaking point. He's caught his producer skewing a story and lying to cover her tracks - and she seems to be hiding something much bigger. His supposedly professional and objective colleagues have descended into a dogfight over the meaning of truth. His father's "accidental" death suddenly isn't looking so accidental. And John's estranged son, Carl, has returned to get the truth about the man behind the TV image. All of these events pale in comparison to the mysterious voices that John is hearing.

  • Aug 1794 - Apr 1796...Roger Brook – Prime Minister Pitt's most daring and resourceful secret agent – had sailed for the West Indies with a party that included three beautiful women. His purpose: pleasure. But the Caribbean, blue seas, lush tropical islands and palm-shaded beaches, was infested with pirates. The slaves of the 'Sugar islands' were in revolt. All this Roger Brook encountered. But also he uncovered a mysterious episode in the early life of the Empress Josephine – a mystery that had its effect on the Parisian intrigues that led to Napoleon receiving his first great command: the Army of Italy. A mystery that tied together many strange scenes and unlikely events.

  • Adriana had come to the remote island to recover from the shock of her parents' violent death. The other guests at Revillion Manor welcomed her with open arms, eager to make her feel at home - perhaps too eager. Adriana began to think. Overwhelmed by their solicitude, she sensed a mysterious purpose behind the ministrations of her incredibly attractive companions, all of whom seemed to have discovered the secret of eternal youth and beauty. And when Adriana found out the horrifying truth, there was nowhere to run, no one to turn to, no way to save her immortal soul....
  • Beneath the sky pitch-black and moon full bright...

    Lurks terror twice as dark as night; Newly risen form the grave...

    Hot fresh blood it does crave; Grisly death it brings the brave...

    The cowardly will rant and rave; Hallowe'en is a time for fright...

    But madness stalks the gloom of PRANK NIGHT...

    Something stalks the streets of a small town on Hallowe'en - and it's not trick our treating...

  • When Englishman Clive Bagnall arrives in Darwin in 1939 to begin a new life on the land of his inherited cattle station, he finds it to be a crocodile-infested, barren wasteland and not only that, he's not the sole owner.  It's shared with his Australian cousin Val, a red-head with a temper.  And then there is Doug, sometime oyster-opener and layabout who feels obliged to instruct him in the ways of the Territory.  And haunting all three is the spirit world of the Aborigine and their sacred Remembering Stones that seem to hold the key to events past and present.
