The Knight at the Top of the Stairs


The Pauper's Field (Coming Soon)


A Supernatural Coming-of-Age Horror Novel Set in 1968 New England.
When nine-year-old David begins to see a shadow that looks like a medieval knight at the top of his family’s staircase, he believes it’s just his imagination—until the shadow starts to move.
As the turbulent year of 1968 unfolds outside, something far older and darker is awakening within the walls of his home.
Part ghost story, part psychological mystery, The Knight at the Top of the Stairs explores the thin boundary between childhood fear and the horrors that grow up with us.
A Northern Gothic Thriller of Violence, Legacy, and Redemption.
In the quiet New Hampshire town of Northmoor, the dead are buried on the edge of the woods—and not all of them rest easy.
Ellis “Fosser” is a former Foreign Legionnaire turned cemetery caretaker, trying to outlive his past while the local mob buries its secrets in his soil.
When a new grave exposes an old betrayal, Fosser is drawn into a brutal struggle between loyalty, corruption, and the ghosts of his own making.
A dark, atmospheric thriller that explores violence as ritual and redemption as reckoning.
