Every Hidden Thing

Parker Buckman loves his new home in Rockport, Massachusetts. But strange things have been happening ever since Devin Catsakis’ funeral. A series of break-ins have left everyone on edge, especially Parker’s new friend, Ella Houston. She lives with her grandma, and they depend on rental income from a cottage on their property.

Bad online reviews about the “ghost” terrorizing rental homes in Rockport aren’t helping bookings. With the bottom dropping out on the rental market, Ella’s home is at risk. All Parker wants is to help Ella—which means finding some answers. What Parker really needs? To trust that God, the great revealer of secrets, is just and will take care of this in His perfect timing—even when it seems He’s taking way too long.

The Deep End

“It starts today. Your world is about to change.”

Harley ignores the cryptic warning but soon learns the chilling message is absolutely true. When his motorcycle is stolen, he feels he’s lost the one thing that connects him to his dad—and keeps his dad’s memory alive. Harley believes he knows exactly who is responsible—and takes dangerously reckless steps to get his bike back.

Parker will do almost anything to help his friend—which is exactly what has Jelly and Ella worried. Their efforts to change Harley’s self-destructive course simply haven’t worked. Now they have to find a way to stop him before he goes off the deep end . . . and takes Parker with him.

Sometimes lies and deception are so believable that only God can reveal the truth.

And every person has a push-point. Something that—if given enough pressure—has the power to send them someplace they never want to go. Off the deep end.

The Second Storm

A Category 5 hurricane is heading for southern Florida, and Parker Buckman’s friend Wilson Stillwaters is caught in its crosshairs. It’s going to be bad, and Wilson will need help. But that means going back to the Everglades—a place filled with some bad memories.

Angelica will do anything she can to get her friend Parker back home safely. What she doesn’t realize is the real threat—the second storm—is threatening to be far more deadly for Parker and his friends than the hurricane. The storm has allowed Clayton Kingman to escape from prison, and he has a big surprise in store for the group, one he intends to deliver personally.

An even bigger storm is brewing . . . and there’s no way to stop it.

Even in Darkness

While diving in Rockport Harbor, Parker Buckman makes a terrifying discovery. Haunting enough to keep him out of the water. His best friend, Harley, has his own dilemma—and needs Parker’s help. Meeting Harley halfway won’t cut it. Parker will need to be all in—which can only mean trouble.

Harley Lotitto is in more danger than anyone realizes. His Uncle Ray has cornered him into secretly finding recordings he’d hidden—before going to prison. Evidence powerful enough to get Ray out of jail—and put a worse man behind bars. If Harley succeeds, Quinn Lochran will get multiple life sentences. Lochran has a dark plan to make sure that evidence never sees the light of day. Ray’s ‘get-out-of-jail’ ticket might just become Harley’s death warrant—and Parker’s too.

Jelly and Ella know the boys are up to something. They want to help—but unless the boys open up—they feel powerless to do a thing. They have a feeling that the boys are going to need all the help they can get… and they’re right. These friends have survived deadly situations together before. But this time escape seems more hopeless than ever. What do you do when you’re surrounded by darkness… and dawn will never get there in time?

About the Author: 
Children’s author Tim Shoemaker speaks at churches, para-church organizations, men’s retreats, women’s groups, couples retreats, Youth Worker conventions, and homeschool conventions. He conducts Family Devotion Workshops all across the country.

Tim loves writing contemporary mystery, adventure, and suspense novels for youth. Sometimes the most powerful way to convey truth is through fiction … a great, powerful story.

Well-written stories are powerful and can convey truth like nothing else can. Nuggets of truth go straight to the heart.

Tim doesn’t write down to his readers, and he’s a firm believer that stories don’t need bad
language or romance to be “real” or to hold a reader’s attention. Tim is careful not to make all parents look like idiots … because they’re not. Instead of using those “lazy writing” tactics, Tim works hard to write great, powerful stories and create characters who resonate with the readers. Tim’s fiction is not preachy, and definitely would not be characterized in any way by the word “hokey.”

His novels are a great choice when parents want to read-aloud to their kids. Mom or Dad won’t be bored while they’re reading! And reading aloud to the kids—even through the teenage years—is a great way to help them gain a love for reading. Their vocabulary and comprehension skyrockets.
