TERROR BY NUMBERS
I'm very excited about the November release of my thriller novel, TERROR BY NUMBERS!
This book is the first release from the new thriller, horror, and mystery imprint called Ravenous Shadows. I'm delighted to be part of the Ravenous Shadows launch and grateful to Lori Perkins, my agent of 16 years and a partial owner of the imprint.
Magnificent artist Allan Penn created a beautiful cover for the book, which I'll post here within the next few days. I've seen Allan's draft, and it's amazing . I can't wait to show it to you!
Also within the next few days, Executive Editor John Skipp and head honcho Holly Schmidt will create the Amazon.com page for TERROR BY NUMBERS. As soon as the Amazon page goes live, I'll post the link here! (Can you tell I'm excited?)
In the meantime, here's something to wet your appetite:
In the tradition of James Bond comes a kick-ass female agent : Sasha Avantis, a quirky genius who works for an undercover CIA unit, a Special Ops force so secret that only the top-ranking members of the CIA know it exists. Sasha and her charm-boy partner, Boyd Raisor, must stop the most dangerous terrorists in the world, who are murdering stock market executives and government leaders, never leaving a clue. Battling a team of very strange assassins, Sasha must untangle a complex web of death fueled by Wall Street and enforced by a new type of terrorism called GORE, the Global Organization to Render Equality. With her mother dead after murdering Sasha's best friend and with her grandmother still in an institute for the criminally insane, Sasha fears the family insanity will catch up to her, too. Are assassins really after her, or is it all in her head? When GORE kills her friend, Nikos, Sasha vows revenge. Little does she know that GORE wants her dead for very personal reasons.
A high-speed adrenaline-fueled thrill ride!
