 FIVE STARS!!!!! - I've been a fan of David Bain' s writing for quite some time now,
​and admire his consistent high quality! - HAUNTED READER


DEATH SIGHT 
"Not Harry Dresden - Thank God! I think I'm just saturated with the current trends in so-called 'paranormal adventures.' I'm full to the brim with all the Buffy-esque cliches of secret societies, vampire cabals, werewolf packs, wizard colleges, super-clandestine anti-monster government alphabet agencies and the rest. Just the other day I was pining for something - if you'll forgive the expression - a little more down to earth. BAM! Along come Misters Bain and Castleton!"

Picture
THE FIRST WILL CASTLETON NOVEL, mixing crime and the supernatural - Hospitalized after drowning during a rescue attempt, newly graduated U.S. Marshal Will Castleton is besieged by psychic visions of a hulking executioner torturing a bound man. A perilous race against time leaves Will broken, unsure if he even wants to join the marshals. Escaping to his Michigan hometown, Will finds his father dying, a young woman’s ghost desperate to communicate with him, and a drug kingpin out to make a statement by taking out law enforcement’s golden boy.

RIDERS WHERE THERE ARE NO ROADS
Riders of the Weird West, Book 2
"Uniquely creepy and fun... You are in for some mind-blowing storytelling!"
- Steve Vernon, author of weird westerns

Picture
The Riders of the Weird West series began in earnest when readers asked author David Bain for more stories about Gentleman Jim "The Demon Duelist" Brodie and Dr. Darius Darke from his story "The Cowboys of Cthulhu." The result was this novel.

There's roping, riding, an interdimensional badass, shootouts, demon cowboys, a dragon, a pickup that's really a horse (or is it the other way around?) and a mystical biker/cosmic Marshal who might just be orchestrating it all!

Dennis Moore's haunted town of Angel Hill (THE THIRD FLOOR, THE GHOSTS OF MERTLAND)!
