Cades Cove #4 is here! :-)
Greetings my friends!
Just wanted to take a moment to let you all know that the Fourth installment of The Cades Cove Series--"THE OBSIDIAN CURSE"--is now available for the Kindle and Paperback versions! ❤
This latest chapter in the saga featuring John Running Deer and his 'shaman-medium' granddaughter, Evelyn"Two Doves Rising" Sherman, pits the pair against a legendary entity long feared in the Smoky Mountain region: Spearfinger.
Below is the books description, followed by the Amazon book links for those interested to learn more.
May the holidays be a safe and blessed time with your loved ones, my friends! ~ Aiden
More than a year has passed since shaman John Running Deer and his equally gifted granddaughter, Evelyn Sherman, battled Brigindo and Teutates’ other three siblings in Cherokee, North Carolina. At the time, John and Evelyn prayed this would be it for dealing with violent ancient entities that supersede the normal realm of ghosts and other mischievous spirits. They naively equated the Hobbs family’s return to peaceful lives in Colorado as the end of their own misadventures with the supernatural.
They couldn’t have been more wrong.
When the sudden appearance of an obsidian spearhead fused to fossilized finger bones shows up at a brutal crime scene in western North Carolina, where six young adults have been horrifically slaughtered, John and Evelyn are soon pulled back into the realm they had hoped to avoid revisiting. But this time it is an entity quite familiar to them—a long-feared demoness from their Cherokee heritage: Utlunta... better known as Spearfinger.
The ancient spearhead and finger bones are unwittingly reintroduced into Utlunta’s ancient hunting grounds after a UNC professor brings the ‘relic’ to John’s home in Tennessee. Dr. James Rosenthal’s stated hopes that John and Evelyn could rebury the macabre item in the very same tomb the demoness was originally laid to rest by Cherokee warriors three centuries earlier is an effort in vain. Once Spearfinger regains a foothold into our world, a bloody campaign begins as the demoness seeks to reestablish her realm in the heart of Blount County where her famed tomb is located, and which is also home to the legendary Smoky Mountain mecca, Cades Cove.
Can John and Evelyn find a way to stop Untlunta’s merciless bloody rampage before she becomes fully established in our world? Or, is this the menace that finally brings John and Evelyn—along with the modern world—to their knees?
These answers and more await discovery in The Obsidian Curse.

Scarlet Hemlock: The Origin Story of Allie Mae
Greetings my friends!
Just a note that my latest book is available, and it represents my very best work to date! :-)
It is the Prequel to the Cades Cove Series and is called "Scarlet Hemlock: The Origin Story of Allie Mae".
I can tell you the experience in writing this story has been so profound that I will now use this same approach to rework the first four books in the Cades Cove Series to bring them up to this level.
Why bother, you might ask?
Because the very last book in the series (Book 5) will have strong ties to the Prequel as we wrap up the thrilling supernatural journey of John Running Deer and his granddaughter, Evelyn "Two Doves Rising" Sherman. That last book will be just as epic as Scarlet Hemlock has turned out to be.
So, to get a feel for what to expect with the four coming revisions for Books One through Four, which should be done within the next year (as well as a preview of the style of Book Five), I encourage you to check out Scarlet Hemlock that is available now on Amazon for the Kindle ebook and the paperback versions (with versions to come soon for Nook, Kobo, and Apple as well).
Here is the description below, and Happy Reading to you all! :-)
~Aiden
Scarlet Hemlock: The Origin Story of Allie Mae presents a compelling narrative by Allie Mae McCormick shortly after her brutal murder in the spring of 1916.
Chronicling her life of just seventeen years from beyond Death’s Veil, Allie Mae’s story begins in early childhood as a beautiful, precocious, and innocent young girl residing in Cades Cove during the dawn of the twentieth century. Long before she became the violent wraith who haunted David Hobbs and his family in Tennessee and Colorado, Allie was once a carefree kid who deeply loved her family and rural community.
Much of Allie’s recollection features a unique telepathic bond with her beloved sister, Emma Sue, as well as their deep devotion to each other. In addition, Allie’s narrative also focuses on a darker fascination and friendship with an ancient entity residing in a magical realm hidden within an isolated ravine not far from her family’s homestead.
Drawn to this mysterious ravine at a young age, where local teenagers pursue wanton desires and leave crudely carved initials upon the majestic trees lining both banks, the entity—known previously in Europe as Teutates—has quietly waited centuries for a human being special and unique enough to discover his realm. Someone possessing unusual supernatural gifts and a natural bent towards witchcraft.
Someone just like Allie Mae.
Unable to resist the entity’s persistent enticements, Allie answers the silent call to begin a supernatural adventure lasting nearly a decade.... An adventure filled with enchantment, love, and deadly betrayal.
