Hades' Heart: A Study In Vengeance
Hades' Heart
A Study in Vengeance - The Trilogy - Book I
The long-awaited sequel opens as Book #1 of a trilogy. An epic that promises to open every scar left behind by the horrors of "Hades' Kiss." An evil that manifests and looms over all. A Machiavellian presence on a mission of hate.
Nicolaus and Alya return in G.J. Bingham's harrowing follow-up to his 2024, award winning, thriller "Hades Kiss."
"A man does not become a hero until he can see the root of his own downfall." -Aristotle
Nicolaus Vagelle, criminal psychologist; a selfless act, a ghost from his past, and a job he never wanted. The ransom exchange that leaves him for dead on a lonely Atchafalaya highway.
Alya Korikova, prot g e-turned-partner; forged by darkness, carrying the internal scars of a tragic past, has been locked away "for her own good." Until she finds the strength to turn her life, and stand shoulder-to-shoulder with her greatest love in their battle against evil.
Wars seldom begin with a single shot, and this war on Nicolaus Vagelle may have been choreographed from the shadows for years.

"Hades' Kiss"

"Book Hangover Alert...a deft blend of story gumbo. It's this author's love letter to all of the crime fiction writers who came before him, starting with Poe and Doyle...few books I have read have given me such an unrelenting book hangover, embedding me into other worlds so credibly. Hades' Kiss is a book to be savored. -Denise Dorman - Publicist, Writebrain Media
"Thoughtfully crafted and elegant: One might reference Peter Straub or Edgar Allen Poe, the commonality is meticulously-crafted prose to the purpose of inexorable disquiet." -Terry Rossio - Screenwriter, Producer. Shrek, Pirates of the Caribbean
"The book is remarkably and meticulously well researched, which enhances the reader's ability to be steeped in the story unfolding. I suspect this may be one of my fastest reads this year (and I read a LOT) because I don't want to put it down. Great, great book." -Damon Walsh - LTC, USA (Ret)
"This book is a literary gem that deserves every one of its five stars. From the first page to the last, it captivates with its rich prose, well-developed characters, and a plot that seamlessly blends suspense, emotion, and thought-provoking themes. The author's storytelling prowess is evident in every carefully chosen word, creating an immersive experience that stays with you long after you've finished reading. It's a rare find that effortlessly balances heart-wrenching moments and spine-tingling suspense." -Nathaniel - Amazon Reviewer
