“Into the Dread Void” (The Dread Void Book 1)
The first in a chilling new series by horror author Abe Moss, “Into the Dread Void” begins the story of an unlikely duo—Nell, a foul-mouthed orphan with an unusual gift, and Hux, an otherworldly man with a knack for destroying otherworldly things—and their union against a universe teeming with horrors the likes of which our world has never fathomed. After years of life in foster care, fourteen-year-old Nell Parrish can hardly believe her luck when she meets her newest foster family. Kind and accepting, the Palmers are everything for which she has ever hoped. However, during a weekend trip to the Palmers’ summer cabin, a dark storm rolls in, along with something else lurking in the downpour. Hux is no stranger to the horrors of our universe. It is his job to stop them when they breach the Void—the glue which binds and separates our universe’s dimensions. So, when he must track down yet another trespassing entity, it is business as usual. That is, until the trail leads him to her—a teenage girl whose peculiar nature seems to have earned her the entity’s fixation, much to the peril of those around her.

“Amid the Sinking Dark” (The Dread Void Book 2)
Robbed of her only chance at a normal life, Nell Parrish now finds herself in a strange new home where darkness and mysteries abound. Plagued with dreams of the night which brought her here, she is desperate for any distraction, anything to forget those unimaginable horrors…even if it means braving another altogether. Marilyn Powell and her little daughter Emmie are running toward a new life, escaping the overbearing judgement of Marilyn’s parents who want nothing more than to separate them. But when their road-trip getaway brings them to the dark and stormy seaside town of Brightport, plans change. A monstrous thing resides in Brightport. Something with an appetite as dark as the storm overhead. What was meant to be a one-night stay soon becomes a nightmare, as Marilyn and Emmie become the town’s latest target.

Coming soon: “Beyond the Phantom Glow” (The Dread Void Book 3)
Release Date: October 5, 2021

“Unthinkable” – Nate Lovejoy is a self-proclaimed nobody, a stay-at-home dad who does not believe he is important to anyone but his wife and their two daughters. So, it is a shock when members of a powerful secret society kidnap and spirit Nate away to a mansion at the behest of their leader, Vanslow DeGange, who claims to know the future. He has foreseen that a billion people could die―unless Nate acts. It seems improbable, especially given what DeGange says will set this mass casualty incident in motion: Nate’s wife Jenny will sue the biggest power company in Virginia. Nate quickly senses that the power company is perpetrating a fraud. But at every turn, it becomes apparent there is more to DeGange’s gift than Nate wants to acknowledge. A billion people really could die, and Nate might be the only one who can save them. All he must do is the unthinkable.
