The Crossed Keys

Front cover from hard Back

So yeah. I did a thing. Over the course of a couple years, hour here - hour there, mostly on my train ride commute to and from work, I wrote a book. Took me nearly a decade, almost all of it was in editing. Slow slow slow editing... Finished it up (as much as I'll ever do) over Covid.

The Crossed Keys weaves a captivating tale that blends mystery, history, and religious supernatural horror. The story follows a protagonist who uncovers a hidden legacy tied to a battered old rifle. Readers are drawn into a richly crafted world that explores themes of religion and the quest for knowing what exactly is lurking in the forests of West Virginia. With engaging characters and a suspenseful plot, the book has garnered praise for its intricate storytelling and thought-provoking twists, making it a must-read for fans of horror, history, and mystery." ...

Or so "they" say. I don't trust a "they" and neither should you. Especially a "they" that may or may not be one of those god damned AI bots! You should make up your own mind by reading the damn thing. It's available on Amazon in both hard and soft back formats as well as free with Kindle Unlimited.

If you come by with a 6 pack of decent beer or a bottle of booze for trade, well, I have a couple paperback copies left as well. You know, if you hate the convenience of on-line retail and don't want me to make that $0.75 to $0.90 per copy sold.
