Book Description
In the early 1900’s, the Wilson family, lived at a time of country unrest and poverty. Love and the help of neighbors and friends were their gifts. Michael and Rita were the Wilson’s two children who adored their parents and wanted nothing more than a happy life together. Unfortunately, not everything happens as we wish it. Death, War, misunderstandings, ego and money change lives and people. Mr. Wilson becomes an Insurance Salesman for a few years and the couple live in peace. But peace does not last, and the change is what this story is all about. It spans four generations with all the twists and turns of environment, history, ill happenings, effects of both war and poor communication along with pettiness and misunderstandings. Sometimes we are our own worst enemy. S. Marshall Kent retired, having spent 20 years in government employ. This is a novice attempt. A learning curve, if you will. There is no relation to actual persons, Clayton New York is a place of Fiction. The characters and incidents are a product of the author’s imagination and are used fictitiously.

Book Description
A bizarre mashup of horror, science fiction, and dark comedy. Jacob Miller, a teenager who has lived in the isolated and deeply religious community of New Hope all his life, never believed the old stories about how the devil and his demons would invade their town and carry away souls. Only a few surviving elders could claim to have witnessed these horrors first-hand two generations ago, yet nobody knows for sure what lies beyond the boundaries of New Hope. Everyone who has ever wandered beyond its limits was either never seen again or returned, frightened to death, and claiming they’d seen the eyes of the devil himself watching over them from a darkened sky. Over the generations, the once-pious population has become complacent, and it turns out that the old stories Jacob refused to believe are all too true. Hell is actually a thriving civilization with advanced technology that evolved from an ancient satanic and sadistic culture—with a hidden, and dark, connection to New Hope. With New Hope’s sins mounting—from Jacob’s elicit love outside his arranged marriage to a local pervert who peeps on women and fantasizes about abduction and murder —the next Reaping of Souls is imminent, and the citizens of New Hope will witness the true price of their transgressions.
