What would happen if the Earth stopped spinning?
Half the world would become trapped in endless night, the other half in relentless day. Global communications would be crippled. The oceans would migrate to the Earth’s magnetic poles, and global tremors would threaten the stability of the entire planet. In other words, things would be bad. Very bad.
That’s what happens in Skybound. And the clock is ticking.
The world is in chaos. Theories about the impossible phenomenon run the gamut from broken physics to little green men to the dawning of the end times. But everyone agrees on one thing:
The massive metallic object that suddenly appeared in the sky is to blame.
In his debut novel, Lou Iovino weaves a modern-day fable that traces the path of two small-town siblings who find themselves thrust into events that will reshape humanity, and grappling with the question that has plagued mankind for eons.

DESCRIPTION:
A gripping and emotional novel that will leave you wondering about the neighbors next door…
On a cold January night, Sharon Lemke heads outside to see a lunar eclipse when she notices something odd at the house behind her backyard. Through her neighbor’s kitchen window, she sees what appears to be a little girl washing dishes late at night. But the Fleming family doesn’t have a child that age, and even if they did, why would she be doing housework at this late hour?
It would be easy for Sharon to just let this go, but when eighteen-year-old Niki, a former foster child, comes to live with Sharon, she notices suspicious activity at the Flemings’ house as well. When calling social services doesn’t result in swift action, the two decide to investigate on their own.

Quotes from Amazon reviews:
‘shocking, unsettling, and creepy in equal measure’
‘Totally gripping from the first page to the last’
‘nothing is predictable’
‘the author also does a great job of keeping each story unique and interesting’
‘The stories grabbed me right away’
‘Think “The Twilight Zone” meets Alfred Hitchcock’
‘These were real page turners’
‘a raw and honest book about the outrageous and brutal side of life’
‘Exciting, each and every one’
‘Each of these stories had me getting more and more gripped as I read on with little twists to keep me on my toes’
Five contemporary thrillers to have you bolted to the edge of your seat.
The theme linking all of these visceral stories is bad people – their motivations, their victims, how they get their comeuppance, and how – just sometimes – they don’t.
In ‘A.B.C.’, a liaison between Shannon and Tyson is not quite what it seems. It all just has to go horribly wrong for one of them. But which one?
‘Desert Rat’ tells the story of Danny Freemont’s final business trip – his last chance to ‘see a little of the real country’. It quickly descends into a dry-throat nightmare where hope is in short supply.
In ‘Juked’, Neeta Shah’s healthy cycle trip takes a decidedly unhealthy turn, resulting in a cat and mouse battle of wits along the Pacific Highway.
‘Jack Slave’ is a tale of a bully who simply won’t seem to go away, and the drastic action that just has to be taken.
The final tale, ‘Crowe Ridge’, tells the story of how a person’s tainted history can come back to haunt them in the cruellest of ways.
Each story is around 50 pages long, and the collection is fully hyperlinked and bookmarked, with a short author’s afterword following each story.
