Ever heard stories of people who die, but come back to earth? Maybe you've heard of all three afterlives; purgatory, hell, and heaven? Perhaps you learned it from a class about religion in school. Maybe you just saw it in an episode of Supernatural, or on some daytime talk show.
Well, I'm here to tell you the only truth I'm certain about:
I have been to hell.
I'm back.
I have unfinished business.

Astra: Awakening
The apocalypse. Running, hiding, surviving. Getting separated, then finding others. Finding out what's going on inside. Saving, then running. Meeting, then fighting. I'm Starr. And I want to tell the world what's happened to me. (Brooklyn, I couldnt've done this without you. Thanks.)Complete

The Sixth Sense
There is theory, that when a person experiences a near-death, he or she comes by to a coma, going in an alternate universe where all souls dwell to await their final judgement. The "Borderline" as they call it. In here, they experience "bliss", the perfect description of happiness. That's what they said that you would feel right before you die. But if you're lucky enough, you get to experience it and wake up the next to live to tell them the truth about the afterlife.Complete
The Dark Mysteries of the Afterlife (TDMotA)
I wake up, bleary and uncertain of where I am... only to be told multiple times by multiple creatures in my dreams, no, not dreams... my NIGHTMARES... that I am in hell. But that doesn't make sense. The last thing I remember is hitting my head. This is probably a coma nightmare. Yeah, that's all it is... ... right?Complete
The Past Haunts Me
You know that near-death experience only a few people ever go through? I'm one of them. My mother says I was in a car accident with my older brother, Eric. I was basically dead until the doctors revived me. As for him... they couldn't save him. Sometimes I think it was my fault. Maybe I was the reason he died. Or maybe not. Because lately, I'm starting to remember things that don't make sense. And I'm not so sure my mother told me the truth about what really happened that night.
The Control Group
In Purgatory, the job of the dead is to help the living transition to the other side. A small crew of "jockeys" take over the bodies of the living during their final few seconds, relieving them of their suffering. Well, that's what Eva thinks. But the mystery is deeper than Eva realizes, and when the life she left behind starts to creep in around the edges, everything she thinks she understands about reality is about to be lost in the fog. ***Standalone short story, first book of the Resurrection Protocols series.***Complete
