Ghost of Ace Honeycutt: The Final Countdown: Either You Survive or You Simply Perish • A Fiction Thriller

"The City of Lazarus, a once promising town in the middle of Hawthorne County, is the reason why many travelers have avoided Central Alabama altogether. The aftermath of the wrongdoings at the dreaded Hawthorne County Whiskey House has cast Lazarus into a never-ending downward spiral. Initially, when it was suspected that the whiskey house was cursed, LPD Detective Brock Taylor lost his life in a valiant effort to try and end it. As violence and bloodshed ensued, the transgressions from the curse went viral, increasing the turbulence Lazarus had already been enduring. Ace Honeycutt, a local thug who unfortunately lost his life in the whiskey house a few years back, was never really put to rest … physically or psychologically. Although many were present when he passed, the body was never found. But that did not stop people from continuing to feel his presence. By Lazarus being a so-called religious town, it was unthinkable for them to be submerged in the paranormal. However, as with every other challenging thing in life, if you let something into your mind that shouldn’t be there, your own thoughts will hold you hostage. Pierre, the brother of the fallen Detective Brock Taylor, Destiny, the aunt of the fallen Brooklyn Fontroy, and Braxton, the town whipping boy, must find a way to persevere through the obstacles that keep Lazarus in a constant state of regression. One has to wonder though, is a ghost really playing a role in terrorizing them to the point in which they cannot succeed? Or are they simply allowing their own personal demons to cast aspersions at their every attempt? Either way, they have their work cut out for them and the curse will be a constant bully from here on out. Speaking of bullies, The Spooky Prophets Motorcycle Club, which entails a few relatives of Ace Honeycutt within its membership, has spawned out of the dark chasms of Hawthorne County. While they’re a nuisance around town ordinarily, some people are in favor of their quest to totally annihilate the whiskey house. With the Spooky Prophets aggressively vying to avenge Ace’s death and Pierre, Brooklyn, and Braxton seeking to end the curse while supposedly being haunted by the late Ace Honeycutt, would this put them on a collision course for war? Would Lazarus and Hawthorne County be able to withstand another round of cataclysmic upheaval? Only time will tell. "

Viral Xgressions: Tainted Souls, Hacked Spirits, Wretched Deals, and Flatlines • A Fiction Thriller

"It is no mystery that Lazarus, Alabama, truly needs Jesus. But with what went down at the whiskey house last spring, one would never hesitate to ask the question, Why would Jesus even consider coming to Lazarus … period? Lazarus Police Department and Hawthorne County Sheriff's Office had their hands full with the cataclysm at the Hawthorne County Whiskey House. After having to deal with false prophets and violent death, a serious toll was taken on the Lazarus authorities and leadership. So by now all citizens of Lazarus and Hawthorne County definitely know, it's not just an urban legend. If you choose to enter the whiskey house, if you should ever come out, then your life will go south. It doesn't matter if a person is good-natured, has good intentions, or is drama-free. Passage through the whiskey house produced a magnitude of tainting in the life of every bold soul who braved its interior. So welcome to present-day Lazarus, Alabama. Back in the spring, if a person did not get murdered, violated, or incarcerated, they were immensely mentally impacted. Or in some regards, they may have been stricken with some sort of physical ailment. Either way, Lazarus and Hawthorne County have limped into the fall. And with severe budget issues, lack of leadership, and open wounds, one would have to assume that there would be many challenging days ahead for the area. Apparently, most people don't seem to get it. When things happen in Lazarus, they occur at cataclysmic levels. If it seems like a curse, feels like a curse, and impacts like a curse, it's probably a curse. However, in this day and age of viral occurrences, the last thing Lazarus needs is more transgressions running rampant through the city bearing semblance to that of an incurable virus. Viral Xgressions (pronounced transgressions) is the second book of the Whiskey House Trilogy, whose first book, Curse of the Whiskey House, set the tone of the trilogy with a thunderous boom. Viral Xgressions picks right up where its predecessor left off with non-stop action, front-to-back drama, and edge-of-your-seat anticipation of what's taking place on the next page. AT WHAT POINT DO YOU SAY ENOUGH IS ENOUGH AND FORGET ABOUT FRIENDSHIPS, RELATIONSHIPS, AND PERCEPTIONS … ESPECIALLY IF THEY ARE IMPEDING THE PATH OF JUSTICE? Welcome back to Hawthorne County."

Curse of the Whiskey House: When Life Is the Principle and Death Is the Practice • A Fiction Thriller

"Jesus once saved Lazarus, but some wonder if the City of Lazarus is beyond saving. This historic Bible Belt homestead located in Hawthorne County, Alabama has a population of 45,000 and is nationally renowned for its fine whiskey. Lazarus, a lively city that was once a resting spot for the Buffalo Soldiers, has a lot of heritage, history, and religion. Maybe too much of each. The Hawthorne County Whiskey Stop, the city's most profitable tourist attraction, gets thousands of customers per year from in and out of town. But the Hawthorne County Whiskey House, its counterpart, is anything but good and sacred. Just ask the beloved Mayor of Lazarus, Samuel Justice, who has enough skeletons in the closet to fill the local cemetery. The level of treachery and mayhem spawned within the whiskey house is uncharted despite the fact that Reverend Jackson Jones, the pastor of the Central Baptist Church, owns it. Many believe that a lot of spirits are uneasy and that a curse lingers around Lazarus and Hawthorne County because of the crass circumstances that surround the whiskey house. There's an old saying around Lazarus, 'Once you enter the whiskey house, if you should ever come out, your life goes south.' There is also an eerie prophecy tied to the whiskey house that no one wants to acknowledge; they keep quiet about it hoping it will just disappear. Detective Brock Taylor is the only hope in saving Lazarus from total destruction. But will he be able to extinguish the curse and bring happiness back to the lives that have been maimed by the misgivings at the whiskey house? Or will he be another victim of the devastating curse? This time, even Jesus may not want anything to do with Lazarus …  'In what is Marc Lacy's best work to date, 'Curse of the Whiskey House,' he brilliantly delivers an action packed thriller which is entertaining, enlightening, socially conscious and exceptionally well-written. Responsible storytelling at its finest.'—Elissa Gabrielle, USA Today recommended author of Eye of the Beholder"
