Rick Townsend made his fortune pulling gold from the deep. He is a legendary salvor who recovered a billion-dollar treasure from a Spanish galleon sought for centuries by many before him. Some tried to take the treasure from him, even using darkness for cover, but they failed. Rick is familiar with darkness.
The darkness he faced in Afghanistan’s rugged mountains taught him that some things are worth more than gold. Now, rich beyond his dreams, living in seclusion in the Bahamas, Rick carries a secret to survival he won’t acknowledge: a paranormal gift inherited from his mother, a gift he prefers to deny.
Rick can sense what others cannot; the invisible spirit world that hovers at the edge of human perception. It’s a talent that saved his life during his special forces days, though he’d never admit that to anyone but his closest friends, Arthur Jones and Susan Blake. His mother knew the secret when he was a child, but to this day, Rick continues to hide from his true nature, even while his paranormal abilities are pulling him toward a destiny he can’t escape.
In Gray Empire, the first in a new paranormal thriller series, Rick Townsend will discover that his denial is a poor shield against ancient forces that desire his service in seeking the greatest treasure of all. In service to them, Rick will discover that hunting certain treasures comes at a terrible price.
