About this listen
A winter walk along a quiet beach turns into disaster when a series of ghostly sightings and deaths unfurl that unlock a medieval spell of ghostly revenge upon the small East Coast town of Pakefield in Suffolk.
This ancient spirit is duty bound to complete a curse made by an ancient Viking warrior but its choice of victims however is random, and those who experience the spirits power are those you would least expect.
One man, John Stubbs, a local church warden, unwittingly stumbles upon the thread that could unlock the mystical activities dating back to Viking times, but can he convince others in time before the revenge is complete?
As the series of spiritual ghost-like assaults unfurl, John's faith is tested to the full, yet he fears becoming victim to its grasp himself. What could stop this happening?

In upstate New York, in the woods around Woodstock, Dutchman's Creek flows out of the Ashokan Reservoir. Steep-banked, fast-moving, it offers the promise of fine fishing, and of something more, a possibility too fantastic to be true. When Abe and Dan, two widowers who have found solace in each other's company and a shared passion for fishing, hear rumors of the Creek, and what might be found there, the remedy to both their losses, they dismiss it as just another fish story.

And what kind of world will be left?

In the post-apocalyptic, neo-medieval city of Ark, speech is constrained to 500 sanctioned words. If somewhere were to speak outside that approved lexicon, they'd face banishment. The only exceptions to this rule are the Wordsmith and his apprentice, Letta. Together, they are the keepers and archivists of all language. But when Letta's master dies, she is suddenly promoted to Wordsmith and finds the situation more complicated than she knew.

And what kind of world will be left?

In upstate New York, in the woods around Woodstock, Dutchman's Creek flows out of the Ashokan Reservoir. Steep-banked, fast-moving, it offers the promise of fine fishing, and of something more, a possibility too fantastic to be true. When Abe and Dan, two widowers who have found solace in each other's company and a shared passion for fishing, hear rumors of the Creek, and what might be found there, the remedy to both their losses, they dismiss it as just another fish story.
