Ingress [2]

The dark and cold of an Alaska winter settled over Ravens Cove. To boost the sagging economy, Mayor Thomas Orthell brought in a new tourist attraction—an ancient town abandoned for almost a century. The Forgotten Place is rumored to be cursed and to hold the threat of death for any who enter. Now, the town and its curse have made their way to Ravens Cove.

As mysterious deaths, legendary entities, and folklore come to life, the town is hurtled into a spiritual battle with a familiar nemesis. The lessons learned during the Iconoclast siege are going to be put to the test—along with the small troop of warriors that have been brought back together to learn a better way to fight and defeat a shrewd and dangerous enemy.

Dullahan [4]

A sinister secret lies hidden in the swamps of East Texas. One which has been kept for centuries.

A small town, a headless apparition, and a young man in a hospital hold the keys to unlocking the mystery. Four thousand miles away, Kat Tovslosky, Ken Melbourne and Bart Andersen prepare to leave Ravens Cove for a routine conference.

What begins as a well-needed break becomes the fabric of most people's nightmares. For Kat, Ken and Bart, though, it's just another day in the life.

Look out, East Texas, the Cove is coming to town. You might want to take cover. Because, you see, their all-too-familiar nemesis is waiting for them in the small town of Bordman's Crossing and will destroy anyone who gets in his way.

About the Author

I’m Mary Ann Poll, America’s Lady of Supernatural Thrillers and charter member of Author Masterminds. The first question most people ask is, “What is an Iconoclast?” Iconoclast means, “The destroyer of religious beliefs or symbols.” I took this definition and applied it to the supernatural realm, which is how the Iconoclast Thriller series was born. My books revolve around the battle between good and evil. They also revolve around the heroic acts of ordinary people who must face extraordinary, even unbelievable, circumstances.

I draw from real-life experiences, as well as my imagination, to create these supernatural thrillers. My love for a creepy, goosebump-creating ghost story and my love for Christ come together in these books.

I am a proud pet lover, which is also reflected in my writing. In my off time, I enjoy gardening, swimming and spending time with beloved family.

I pray you enjoy reading Ravens Cove as much as I enjoyed writing it. Blessings in Christ!
