Book Description
WINNER — SUNSHINE COAST WRITERS AND EDITORS SOCIETY BOOK AWARD, HUMOUR Tony Vicar is wrestling against the ordinary patterns his life has fallen into, until dark secrets and a dangerous woman from the past threaten to upend it all. After the devastating fire that nearly destroyed his hotel and pub, Tony Vicar has rebuilt both Hotel Valentine and The Vicar’s Knickers once again. But the glamour of being a barman has lost some of its lustre and the responsibility is incessant. Even a couple of famous television mediums determined to uncover the truth about the hotel’s mysterious ghost can’t seem to stir Vicar from the unwelcome state of “normality” his life has settled into. But life in Tyee Lagoon has a way of veering away from normal, as proven when femme fatale Serena, unexpectedly freed of criminal charges, returns to town to steal back baby Frankie — who she abandoned on Vicar’s doorstep two years before — and hopefully ensnare Tony in the process. Serena hits a new high in outrageous and dangerous behaviour, allowing no one, especially not Tony’s girlfriend Jacquie O, to get in her way. On the defensive, Vicar tries to protect his little family, while simultaneously attempting to stop the endless circles of his life and learn lessons about authenticity, caring, and the surprising power of his effect on others ... including his mother-in-law.

Book Description
'Horror at the Vicarage, ' by David G Hulson, a member of Bugs2writes, comprises eighteen short stories based in and around the crumbling vicarage belonging to the Church of St George. Each of the stories is complete, yet by each sharing the same settings and characters all the narratives are closely linked and related. Jake narrates the supernatural events that occur whilst he and his family attempt to live ordinary lives as good citizens of the parish. However, things are never quite what they seem. Instead, behind a semblance of normality, Jake and his parents are frequently forced to confront demons, ghouls, ghosts and vampires. The devil's fiendish creatures spawn from the darkest of hell and rise to create and dispense evil wherever they go. Filled with confusion, terror, suspense and mystery, the atmosphere surrounding the antiquated vicarage and archaic graveyard evokes the very best of the horror genre. Thick swirling mists, crumbling tomb stones and dank, dark crypts all add to the drama.
