There are incidents and emergencies in the world that defy logical explanation, events that could be defined as supernatural, extraterrestrial, or simply otherworldly. Standard laws do not allow for such instances, nor are most officials or authorities trained to handle them. In recognition of these facts, one organization has been created that can. Assembled by a loose international coalition, their mission is to deal with these situations using diplomacy, guile, force, and strategy as necessary. They shield the rest of the world from their own actions, and clean up the messes left in their wake. They are our protection, our guide, our sword, and our voice, all rolled into one. They are O.C.L.T. When a world-renowned scientist with a high-level security clearance goes missing in Uppsala, Sweden, and then a trained CIA operative follows suit, the DIA (Defense Intelligence Agency) taps Reed Christopher Hayes ("R. C." to his friends and "Crease" to his teammates) and the rest of his Military Intelligence unit to investigate. What they find lurking in the shadows of that quiet little city defies belief. The real question, though, is can they take it down before more lives are lost—including their own? "Brought to Light" is the first piece in the exciting new O.C.L.T. series. Watch for more O. C. L. T. stories available now, including The Parting (a full length novel by David Niall Wilson), Incursion (a full-length novel by Aaron Rosenberg), and "The Temple of Camazotz" (a novella by David Niall Wilson).

Headless bodies are turning up along the Mexican border. The Mexican government blames overzealous US Border guards. The border guards blame drug runners. In a village just on the Mexican side of the border, they have other ideas. There are legends, older even than the Mayan civilization that has died away, of a God. A bat-headed vengeful demon. Someone is fanning the flames of that superstition, and the piles of bodies continue to grow. Geoffrey Bullfinch, folklorist, dabbler in the occult, and Wendell "Mack" Macklemore, computer genius and extreme sports enthusiast are called down to investigate. There are plenty of questions, but can they find the answers before the body count gets too high? Is it possible that they should have let sleeping gods lie? Find out in this action-packed O.C.L.T. adventure. This novella, and "Brought to Light," by Aaron Rosenberg are the first introductions to the members of the O.C.L.T. team. Next will be the full-length novel "The Parting," also by David Niall Wilson, and then the creation of the actual team follows in Aaron Rosenberg's "Insurrection". Look for many adventures to come in this Crossroad Press original series.

In Dublin, Ireland, academics and historians are dying. An unidentified venom is to blame. Strange markings from deep in the Emerald Isle’s past suggest adherents to lost and forbidden knowledge may have reorganized. Detective Aileen O’Donnell of Ireland’s National Police Service, An Garda Síochána, has never heard of the agency’s sub rosa unit devoted to investigation of the strange and paranormal. That is, until a shooting incident leads to her suspension from the Special Detective Unit. While awaiting disciplinary proceedings, she’s pressed into service by the secret division to investigate the deaths and what might be the tip of a conspiracy and academic cover-up. Soon O’Donnell’s teamed with Geoffrey Bullfinch and Wendell "Mack" Macklemore of O.C.L.T. On a race through medieval ruins and holy sites, she must collect puzzle pieces, fragments from a forgotten pulp writer and bits of secret Druid history to stop the shadowy band of disciples before it awakens something long sleeping beneath one of Ireland’s most famous landmarks, something modern technology and firepower can’t defeat.

DANGER RUNS DEEP. New York. City of millions. Home to the largest subway system in the world. Miles of tunnels stretch far underground, home themselves to a vast, displaced populace. But now someone—or something—is slaughtering these homeless. Along with anyone else foolish enough to venture underground. And whatever it is, it is slowly rising toward the surface. Can a young empath, a finicky professor, a flighty linguist, a foreign hunter, and a lone cop stop the threat before it spills out into the rest of the city? This is a novel in the O.C.L.T. series about a group of disparate individuals selected to shield the world from situations that defy logical explanation using diplomacy, guile, force, and strategy as necessary. Each story can be enjoyed separately but can also be read as part of the larger whole.

SKINWALKERS tells the story of Perdition, New Mexico, and of the harrowing night its residents are attacked by a pack of rabid coyote-men (skinwalkers). It is a night of extreme horror in which the townspeople must answer for the sins of their past. Many succumb, both to the skinwalkers and to the guilt over their transgressions, while others rise above the desperate circumstances facing them. SKINWALKERS places an Old West spin on the werewolf myth. The novel is a classification-defying rogue piece of work that combines the traditions of George Romero, Sergio Leone, and Stephen King. Interspersed among the chapters of the main narrative are flashback sequences, mock journal entries and articles, and even chapters from a dime novel written by one of the characters from the main tale. These subchapters give the greater story context, heightened horror, and even comic relief.
