KEY SELLING POINTS
Historical fantasy that combines the excitement of a contemporary thriller with historical adventure and the
dark suspense of a horror story.
Based on the premise of reincarnation and explores modern day situations and people as they recall their
pasts through dreams and trances.
Book One in The Souls Series
After a near-fatal crash in the Scottish Highlands, Ben, an ex-army major with a passion for protecting the
innocent, dreams of previous deaths. Visited by a mysterious stranger who puts him into a series of trances to
reveal more of his past, he stops the sessions after seeing his fiancée burned as a witch.
Ben’s doctor, Susan, is driven by her desire to care for people. Strangely drawn to Ben, she shares a vision in
which they are drowned as human sacrifices. Still disoriented, she agrees to accompany new colleague, Lord
Mortimer, to a conference in Dubai. There the lord imprisons her in his desert villa where he demonstrates how
he has achieved immortality by consuming a man’s soul, telling her she will be next.
Sharing more past experiences while fighting to stay alive in the present, Susan and Ben must endure
unspeakable horrors across millennia to discover the clues they need to survive; to find each other, and to
challenge their nemesis. From ancient Egypt to the D-Day landings; from the African slave trade to punk rock; a
multitude of lives lived, culminating in a single moment. All as the sinister Mortimer, destroyer of souls, lies in
wait.
