But that’s all about to change. Charlie finds his elderly and wealthy newspaper customer, Mr. Grazione, on the brink of death. Just before he passes, he shares a secret with Charlie. Grazione was part of a group of atomic scientists who discovered a special rock that allowed them to move through time. Harvesting the rock’s chemical—what they called Chronotine—they built a small device that could open a portal to the future. But in doing so, they sent off a cosmic alarm in the form of Pandora’s box. A mysterious couple called the Travelers have arrived in Chamberlain and are searching for the rock. And they will stop at nothing to get it, including killing all the scientists associated with the Chronotine project. Grazione’s dying wish is for Charlie to destroy the rock. If he succeeds, Grazione believes the Travelers will disappear from their timeline. But there’s a catch … Grazione hid the rock in 1984, and there’s only a limited amount of Chronotine for Charlie to use to keep the portal open. If the device runs out, he will be trapped in the future. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e4849b41ea5462a7a92b03b/743542af-5c85-4f74-aee2-7296a102543d/Connelly_ZworskysChildren_Ebook.jpg BOOKS Some got the gift; some didn’t. And then there were those who saw it as a threat. The gift was an unexpected side effect of Dr. Zworsky’s now banned vaccine, which was created for a generation of children who developed antibiotic resistance. They were known as the Metachromes: humans who could fly. Darlene Verity never enjoyed the attention she got as a Meta. But she never thought those who labeled her as inhuman would force her into a protection camp in the California desert. That all changed when an asteroid crashed into the Southwest and set her and the Metas free. But their freedom came with a price. The asteroid’s particles created an unexpected fusion with their gift of flight: they can no longer be in the daylight and are aging faster. Now Darlene’s only hope is a rogue scientific colony called Project Z who are secretly trying to recreate Zworsky’s vaccine. If they learn his mysterious formula, they will not only save the Metas but humankind itself. Zworsky has been dead for years and all documentation of his vaccine had been wiped from the medical archives. But Darlene has the only surviving document of Zworsky’s that could solve the vaccine’s mystery. With little time, she must reach Project Z before her revenge-driven leader, Kevin Stroder, unleashes his plan to annihilate those responsible for caging the Metas. His first target: Project Z. “Connelly takes readers on a wild ride through the near future as humans struggle to survive disaster in this speculative thriller….

Book One explores three dark and haunting tales involving the quiet neighborhood of Eden Gardens. In “The Rock Star,” a drum technician’s nightly bike ride turns dark and ghostly. In “The Piano,” a divorced man wakes up one morning to find a street barrel piano on his front lawn. It can do more than play music. In “The Decorator,” a nosy woman’s obsession to win a Christmas decorating contest reveals a dark secret within her neighborhood. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e4849b41ea5462a7a92b03b/7dcf236e-7136-4236-9b12-d6123ef08f7d/Suburban+Tales+Book+2.jpg BOOKS Suburban Tales 2 turns to the world of teenagers in KILL PARK and ROLLER GIRL. The setting this time is New York’s Hudson Valley, and some strange things are happening. Stacking and chopping wood is a yearly routine for the Ferguson brothers. It’s hard work and never exciting. But that’s about to change when they find a green object frozen inside one of the logs. Eager to learn its origins, the boys head out on an adventure into the woods of the Hudson Valley. What they discover will change their lives forever. It’s a fall day, and Maggie Anderson is helping her best friend shoot a rollerblading video.

Examining classic films such as Alfred Hitchcock's Rope and Stanley Kubrick's The Shining, as well as current films such as Room, Green Room, and 10 Cloverfield Lane, Connelly shows that the source of enjoyment of confined spaces lies in the viewer's relationship to excess. “Using cinema to explain the relationship between space and lack, Connelly provides an important theoretical model for more broadly interpreting the spatial limits of desire in our new media environments.” --Matthew Flisfeder, University of Winnipeg https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e4849b41ea5462a7a92b03b/1581798987042-KK2QFLGPZDVICDUGUR66/Capturing+Digital+Media.jpg BOOKS Capturing Digital Media examines the relationship between the perfection of the digital form and the imperfection of the human subject in recent film and television. Using a number of key psychoanalytic terms and new media concepts, Capturing Digital Media shows that the necessity of imperfection is where we locate the human subject of desire within the binary logic of the digital. It argues that the perfection of digital must be wounded by forms of imperfection in order to make media texts such as film and television desirable. But even as films and television texts incorporate forms of imperfection, digital perfection remains a powerful attraction in our engagement with moving images, such as high definition screens, spectacular digital effects, and state-of-the-art sound. "Represents a major leap ahead in our understanding of how the digital age changes our very mode of perception." - Todd McGowan, University of Vermont, USA https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e4849b41ea5462a7a92b03b/e25f8497-1f23-4176-be9c-e3417bcb9d07/Dark+Summer.jpg BOOKS It lives in the rocks. They call it the Blaze, an eerie stretch of scorched earth on the outskirts of Fordington, a quiet town tucked away in upstate New York Once slated to become a thriving neighborhood in the early 1970s, the development was abruptly abandoned after a fire—violent and unexplained—reduced much of the land to ash. Now, twenty years later, fifteen-year-old Laura Gibbons has just moved from Los Angeles to Fordington, only to stumble across a cryptic clue about what really happened at the Blaze. With the help of her new friends, Melvin and Siobhan, Laura sets out to explore the deserted site. But what they uncover near a jagged ridge and a fallen pine tree is no mere relic of the past, it’s something alive. Something waiting.

Now they’re about to rise and show who they truly are. The Telescope initiative has an important task: to make sure the plane from Houston with its precious cargo lands in a safe location. Failure to complete this mission could doom the prime initiative to save the Metachromes. But when the team arrives at Burbank Airport, the runway is littered with abandoned cars, and all the computers in air traffic control have been destroyed. And that’s just the start of the diabolical plan from Big Jim, the Metas’ new leader, to crush Project Z. Now, with a short amount of time, the team must cobble together a plan to clear the runway and figure out a way to help land the plane before Big Jim strikes again. Meanwhile, watching in the shadows are a handful of Creepers. Feared by the Metas and Project Z, the Creepers were once Metas. But something strange happened to them: they lost their voices; they can’t fly anymore; they can’t be in the daylight; they wear bandages to protect their skin. And they like motorcycles. Project Z doesn’t know what spawned them—only that they are extremely dangerous. Or so they think. The thrilling second installment of the Zworsky’s Children series tells the story of the Creepers: why some became flesh-eaters, why some didn’t, why they were forced to live in the shadows, and why some have decided to take matters into their own hands. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e4849b41ea5462a7a92b03b/0642f1e1-6dae-42dd-9fd6-eb88e0235ca9/Connelly_LastStand_Ebook.jpg BOOKS The end begins now as truth, trust, and power collide.

Deep in the canyon, Millie and Jay carry a secret that could change everything for the Creepers. Seeking Zelda’s help, they must reach Dr. Walker. But they must do this within limited time. The military are preparing to march into Los Angeles in anticipation of the reopening of the state. Their orders are to wipe out the Metas and Creepers.
