A long-lost diary, a rare book of ghost stories, and unrelenting nightmares combine to send archeologist Michael Rempart on a forbidden journey into the occult and his own past.
When archaeologist Michael Rempart returns to his ancestral home after years of self-imposed exile, he expects memories.
He does not expect nightmares.
Visions stalk his sleep. Voices whisper from the dark. And a long-lost diary tied to the legendary writer Lafcadio Hearn reveals a secret buried deep within his bloodline-one that leads halfway across the world to Japan... and straight into the mystery that has haunted him since childhood: his mother's fatal fall from a third-story balcony. Accident. Suicide. Or murder.
But the past is no longer content to remain buried.
As those closest to him fall victim to the same waking nightmares, Michael realizes something is hunting them-something ancient, intelligent, and merciless. To stop it, he must follow Hearn's trail to the shadowed landscapes where ghost stories were born and demons still walk in legend.
Yet the deeper he searches, the clearer the truth becomes:
The evil pursuing him isn't just supernatural.
It's personal.
From the windswept shores of Cape Cod to the haunted echoes of old Japan, Michael must confront the secrets his own family tried to hide-even if the final revelation destroys everything he believes about love, loyalty... and himself.
Ancient Illusions is a dark supernatural thriller of forbidden knowledge, ancestral sins, and the terrifying power of illusions that refuse to fade.
Book THREE of the Ancient Secrets Series: Where the past is buried... but never dead.
From hidden relics to forbidden knowledge, the Ancient Secrets novels follow archaeologist Michael Rempart across continents as he uncovers mysteries history tried to erase-each tied to alchemy, ancient power, and dark forces that refuse to remain buried.
