The Librarian's Secret

When Beth steps into the old town library, she isn’t searching for just any book—she’s searching for the book. The one her friend whispered about. The one that could change everything. But the librarian, Morgan, is more than just a keeper of knowledge—he’s a gatekeeper of something far darker. As Beth turns the pages, she realizes the books don’t just grant desires; they take something in return. With time running out and a terrifying fate closing in, Beth must make an impossible choice—find another reader, or face the horror that lurks within the bindings forever.

Paranormal investigator Paul Barry has spent years chasing whispers of the otherworldly, but when a routine case at an ancient mansion reveals a sinister apparition, his life spirals into a chilling nightmare.
