Red Arrows in the Night

Red Arrows in the Night by Daniel A. Lord weaves together family legend, wartime suspense, and supernatural mystery in a haunting tale set on a New England estate. When the Scarlet Archer of Agincourt—a spectral figure bound to the Erkenwold family for generations—materializes on their American coastal grounds during the early years of World War II, the family faces an unsettling question: is this ghostly herald merely fulfilling its ancient role, or does something far more sinister lurk beneath the apparition? Tradition claims the archer's appearance has always announced the death of a prominent Erkenwold family member. But in this era of global conflict, the rules of an old family curse may be changing. As mystery and horror converge, nothing is quite what it seems, and the line between supernatural warning and human evil grows dangerously thin. Written by prolific American Catholic author Daniel A. Lord, S.J., this atmospheric ghost story combines the psychological tension of a classic mystery with the atmospheric dread of Gothic horror. Lord's diverse literary career—spanning religion, humor, drama, and even his influential work on Hollywood's Production Code—demonstrates his mastery across multiple genres. Perfect for listeners who appreciate classic ghost stories with depth, historical atmosphere, and the unsettling possibility that the greatest mysteries may have earthly explanations, Red Arrows in the Night delivers a gripping, suspenseful journey through darkness and doubt.
