A vampire in an asylum? Like that is going to end well... Something demonic is infecting humans-and spreading to vampires when they feed. When Mercy contracts the infection her brother, whose consciousness is now bound to hers, takes over and goes on a rampage through the French Quarter. Now Mercy is locked up in the Vilokan Asylum for the Magically and Mentally Deranged. And she's not happy about it. Back in control of her own body she plots her escape-but finds out there might be more going on in the Asylum than she thought, something connected to the Order of the Morning Dawn and a demonic scheme to infect humans, possess vampires, and dominate the world. To escape, and combat the monstrous threat that emerges within the Asylum, Mercy must not only get in touch with the darker side of her vampirism, but also the witchcraft she'd learned in her human life. Bloody Mad is the second book in Theophilus Monroe's The Legacy of a Vampire Witch series. Vampires, witches, and werewolves. Not to mention demons. You'll encounter them all in the second part of Monroe's dark and deranged urban fantasy horror series.

I’ve fallen for her. She’s mine out of convenience, a means to an end. The crew needs her for a vote, but I need her for so much more. It’s time for an uprising, and in mob life, that’s no easy feat. Blood spills, lines are crossed, and betrayal runs deep. No matter if you’re my enemy or my wife, crew always comes first. Yet, I find myself bartering with the Devil. He’s a finicky beast, one I can bargain with. Take a life, in place of another. It’s nothing I haven’t done before, and for her, I’d kill them all.

Maxie's in trouble! Again. Only, this time it's serious.

For Maxie, small-time thief and general low-life, has crashed into the Spiral, a strange whirlpool of time and space, where, it seems, almost anything can happen, and anyone appear.

Book Description
Darwin was a battle Australia would rather forget, yet the Japanese attack on 16 February 1942 was the first foreign assault on Australian soil since 1788. The raid was bigger than the first wave that attacked Pearl Harbor. Hundreds of Australians were killed. The police station and police barracks were totally destroyed, the hospital wrecked, the administration building shattered. And the people of Darwin abandoned their town leaving it to looters and a few dogged defenders with single-shot .303 rifles and a few anti-aircraft batteries. Peter Grose tells the real story of the attack and takes us into the lives of the people who were there.
