Second book in The Devil’s Rules Series coming soon!

I’m currently seeking Agency Representation for The Grudge; When the prey becomes the predator.

Psychological Thriller

Here’s a taste: https://christilgibson.com/the-devils-rules#3aff7f17-f4a2-430c-809d-d51ca2392928 

There’s a secret buried deep in prairie soil where four women suffer the cycle of domestic abuse. 

It’s 1978. In a mansion sixty miles west of Chicago, a man and his wife are found dead. Ruled a murder-suicide, the house is sealed tight as a coffin, locking the remains of their domestic violence inside. Nothing is removed, except the bodies.

Eighteen years have passed, and Clarissa Trenton, the daughter, and only heir to over 9,000 acres of emerald-green fields, returns to the stately home where her father and stepmother died.

A tightly woven backstory reveals what led up to the deaths of the Trentons, and coincides with Clarissa’s return. Clarissa opens the mansion to the realization that her parents’ deaths weren’t the result of murder-suicide. It was a cruel, well-planned homicide. The murderer is close. Watching. Clarissa’s prepared to find the murderer before the predator returns to kill her. She hesitates, ensnared, and is grossly underestimated. Then the prey became the predator. 

 

The Grudge is a standalone novel in The Devil’s Rules series of seven standalones. Its soul is envy. In the Devil’s game, the rules to win are to endure each of the seven deadly sins. Previously published is The Urge, and its theme is lust. Characters do not crossover in this series, locations do.

Currently seeking agency representation for this psychological thriller perched on the fence-post of horror. The Grudge: When the prey becomes the predator, an 89,000 word novel showcases the power of women living in the midst of abuse.
