Secrets in the Shallows landed at #88 on Amazon's Paranormal E-book List!

Secrets in the Shallows (Monastery Murders) by Karen Vance Hammond Secrets in the Shallows

Karen Vance Hammond Kimberly Brouillette

Yesterday, "Secrets in the Shallows" gained a lot of momentum and ended up at the #88 rank on Amazon's Paranormal E-book List. Other featured authors on this list are Stephen King and Anne Rice. I'm thrilled that our book managed to be put on a list with such literary giants in this genre! To top things off, our book also reached the overall rank of #65,594 yesterday. Thank you to all of our family & friends for supporting our efforts!

As a special treat, I'd like to share a short excerpt from BOOK 2 from The Monastery Murders, called "Devil in the Details". ENJOY THE SNEAK PEAK!
_________________________________

Adrenalin pulsed through the attacker’s veins as the ropes encircling Tom Green’s neck went taunt. Power over the victim was like an addictive drug to the would-be killer. Each pull on the rope rubbed the victim’s neck raw and crushed his airway. An intense emotional rush filled the assailant with momentary satisfaction and supreme elation born from control over life and death.

The long sleeves of a habit's robe flared back with each yank, as the victim desperately tried to break free. Straining to hold Tom captive until he passed out, the attacker held a firm control. “You just had to run your big mouth, didn’t you?”

Tom’s unconscious body fell limply on the ground, still entangled in the rope. Shadows from the surrounding trees parted just enough for the pale early moonlight to shine on him. Standing there and quietly smiling, the attacker glanced over the sprawled victim for several seconds, before casting the rope aside.

Thank you to everyone for such amazing feedback about our book, "Secrets in the Shallows." To date, we have received about 30 5-star reviews between all of our online outlets. I'm thrilled that so many people have enjoyed getting into the story and have said that they feel like they are there.

Thank you Brian Hayden for such an awesome 5-STAR Review for our book "Secrets in the Shallows." We are honored to have so many people that have enjoyed our book so thoroughly.

Brian M. Hayden writes this on his blog:
“'The Monastery Murders – Book 1 – Secrets in the Shallows' is not the type of book I usually read. But I decided months ago to write reviews. So, the time was right to expand my horizons.

Try as you may, you won’t be able to guess what happens next. The story keeps you guessing all the way through.

I thoroughly enjoyed reading 'Secrets in the Shallows'. Our author’s, through their descriptive writing and storytelling skills brings the reader along for a suspenseful and entertaining ride. I strongly recommend this book for anyone out for a sitting on the edge of your seat read."
