The Regal Retreat is an exclusive resort situated deep in the countryside of East Anglia where the rich and famous go to unwind. However, far from being a place of rest and relaxation, bad things happen there. Its history has been plagued by tragedy and misfortune. Over the years there have been scores of killing sprees, accidents, suicides, and even the occasional sighting of the resident ghost.

In a desperate attempt to save the business, the resort calls in paranormal investigator Ben Shivers. Since the devastating loss of his daughter and the subsequent breakdown of his marriage, he has been traveling Europe in a vintage VW camper van with his sidekick, a rescue cat called Mr. Trimble. He sees the assignment as the perfect opportunity to break the cycle of self-destruction he has been on, but as he delves into the case, he uncovers a history many would rather forget—sordid family secrets, witchcraft, murder, and an ancient curse, all coming together in a perfect storm deep in the heart of the English countryside.

Welcome to the Regal Retreat.

"The Blood Eagle" by A. L. Hatcher is a captivating crime and mystery novel that will keep readers thoroughly engaged. From the third-person perspective, the story unfolds with a combination of compelling plotlines, subtle romantic undertones, and well-timed suspense, ensuring that readers remain on the edge of their seats for hours. Deputy Dane and Detective Denny Haywood team up to unravel a series of gruesome murders in a small town. The meticulous inclusion of time stamps throughout the book helps readers maintain a clear sense of the events as they embark on this thrilling journey. I highly recommend "The Blood Eagle" to anyone who enjoys crime or mystery novels; be warned, once you start reading, it becomes nearly impossible to put down!

Exciting!
