Thirteen years after Vera Gamble’s little brother ran away from theirTexashome, his body washes ashore on the remote island of Winter Haven, Maine. Vera goes to claim the corpse and discovers the impossible: her brother hasn’t aged a day since last she saw him. Determined to uncover what happened, she is confronted by unearthly fog, distrusting locals, and stories of lost colonies and a vengeful witch. Beyond a forest where no creature dares to live, her only hope is the mysterious owner of a dilapidated mansion on a rocky cliff. But will this solitary man assist her, or is Vera Gamble doomed to disappear forever into yet another Winter Haven legend?

“Acclaimed author Athol Dickson has created a chilling, thought-provoking romantic mystery with a classic Gothic appeal. Winter Haven’s unique plot and vivid details will keep readers guessing and turning pages late into the night.” – Kacy Barnett-Gramckow, Moody Publisher’s GENESIS trilogy author

The Cure

May 10, 2012 By Athol Dickson

But on Amazon

 

 

Riley Keep, former missionary, now a drunk, is begging on the streets and desperate to forget a past he lost in one far-flung act of wickedness. Then he hears the rumors. Miracles are happening in the picture post card village of Dublin,Maine. Riley isn’t the only pilgrim searching for deliverance. There’s the old woman fleeing a horrific monster, the lonely wife tempted by forbidden desire, the impoverished lobsterman lured by tainted wealth, the young girl weighing life and death decisions, and the small town cop with a murder on his hands. But only Riley Keep will learn if it’s true what people say: sometimes The Cure is much worse than the disease.

…unpredictable and surprising, even though clues are sprinkled throughout the book. The final twist was chilling and, unfortunately, not unrealistic in today’s world. …the author does a wonderful job weaving in the deceit and the actions of those unrestrained by ethics and driven by the bottom line—a common scene in today’s headlines. …a powerful book, one that will remain on my bookshelf for a long time to come. – Crosswalk

With regard to what I’ve written here, I know a little about a lot, a lot about a little, more than some when it comes to some things, less than others about others, and everything there is to know except for what I don’t.
