A Legendary Pendant. A Forgotten Curse. A Race Against Time.
When relic hunter Miles Bordel calls AnaRose Preston for
help, she knows trouble isn’t far behind. This time, it’s personal — and
deadly. A nationalist cult bent on restoring ancient Greece to its former glory
is hunting the Medusa pendant, said to petrify anyone who meets its cursed
gaze.
AnaRose and Miles find the pendant, but it’s stolen before
they can secure it. Now the cult is after its missing ruby eyes, hidden
somewhere along the Aegean coast. From sunken ruins to mountaintop shrines,
AnaRose must follow the clues, dodge assassins, and stop a plan that could turn
ancient superstition into modern terror.
The danger is real. The curse may be, too.
She answered a call for help. Now she’s fighting to ensure
the past stays buried. Grab your copy of AnaRose and Medusa’s Curse and chase a
secret some still fear to face.

Behind the Curse: Echoes from the Deep
Before the pendant, there was a call for help. Before the
ruby eyes, a legend whispered in stone. Before the chase, a curse long
forgotten.
AnaRose Preston didn’t seek this relic, but when Miles
Bordel calls, she answers. What begins as a rescue spirals into a race against
time, where myth and nationalism collide. The cult believes in Medusa’s power.
And they’ll kill to wield it.
This moment, where superstition becomes strategy, captures
the soul of AnaRose and Medusa’s Curse. It’s not just a story of pursuit. It’s
a story of fear, legacy, and the danger of belief.
A Note from the Author
I wrote AnaRose and Medusa’s Curse to explore how myth can
be weaponized, and how courage is tested when the past refuses to stay buried.
This trailer brings that tension to life, and I’m honored to share it with you.
