The Cultus Contracts

By Michael Richan

"A giant saw blade rose out of their beds, slicing down their spines, killing them in their sleep."

Things are going wrong - very wrong - in the small town of Astoria. Ghostly apparitions haunt the streets, tragic accidents are all over the news, and horrific deaths stump the police - all since Terrell made a terrible mistake and unwittingly unleashed a terror that had long been forgotten.

He pleads for Steven and Roy's help. As they dig deeper into what has happened, they uncover hidden histories going back hundreds of years. They encounter ancient ghosts, shipwrecks, and Astoria's terrifying destruction by fire before they finally discover the cause of the trouble - and find themselves neck-deep in solving it before the entire town is devastated again.

The Cultus Contracts is Book 17 in The River series and is a fast-paced paranormal adventure. This novel is stand-alone in most respects, not requiring previous reading in the series in order to enjoy.

"Very few authors can pull me in immediately and make me feel as though I were reading about old friends. Stephen King always has, and I can now add Michael Richan to the list." - Amazon Reviewer
