Can
time become stuck at NOW or does it just seem that way?
Can
the past be changed without creating a paradox?
Does
history repeat or is that something we tell ourselves to cover our poor
choices?
When
Alexander ‘Ramses’ Smith is assigned to decipher the odd hieroglyphs of the
Temple of Khnum—all heka (magic) breaks loose. As a teen, his interest was in
metaphysical and sharing psychic experiences with a beloved grandmother. When
she died, things turned dark when an Ouija Board freed a terrifying entity with
red eyes. He thought he was free of it when he shut his psychic gifts down and
began a study of Egyptology—But Shezmu was waiting for him in Esna. Lex found
others trapped by the time loop: afret (djinni), the ghost of a former
archeologist, Dr. Broderick S. Gillwood, the Neteru (Egyptian gods/goddesses)
all conspiring against his scientific training and logical mind.
Lex
soon realizes there is no choice but to obey the voices in his head and the
mysterious ones of an outer sort. He must rely on the intuitive gifts he fought
so hard to quash. Realizing he can see and sense what others cannot, Lex runs
headlong into a past life that puts him dangerously susceptible to the hidden
secrets infused in the stone ruins. He must quickly re-define his understanding
of the lines between imagination and reality or lose the battle for his mind
with the darkness created by blood sorcery and a destiny (shay) he never
expected.
About
the Author
As
a Mystical Author, Anita Merrick is a 3rd generation psychic, retired and
living in a wooded area of Erin, NY with her husband, Timothy, and furry
children—two West Highland White Terriers and a half-Westie/Cavalier King
Charles spaniel. As Crystal Wind (DBA), she is a Psychic Intuitive, Tarot
Reader and Medium, an ordained priestess in the Order of Melchizedek. She holds
certification as a Tarot Master from the Tarot Certification Board of America.
Prior to 1991, she performed as Nehebka, a semi-professional Oriental (belly)
dancer; at the same time raised, trained and showed Appaloosa horses. A Bitter
Wind, a first novel, comes from a life-long love of Egypt that probably really
began in 1988 as a belly dancer and a first trip to Egypt and a performance at
the Winter Palace of Luxor. Starting about 1991, her focus went to the
paranormal, supernatural and metaphysical, as well as the tarot. That led to
the next trip to Egypt (1997) with a group of like-minded friends then a
synchronistic connection with Nicky Scully/Shamanic Journeys, Mary K. Greer and
Normandi Ellis, Anita returned to deepen an understanding of the mystical. The
last trip in 2011 (Shamanic Journeys) most powerfully connected her to the
mysteries of Egypt—Like a portal opened into the ancient past, the spirits
spoke and their stories became this book.
