Hotter than the flames of hell." - Scott Nicholson, author of Scattered Ashes, They Hunger, The Red Church, The Harvest."These characters... are exquisitely drawn, fully-fleshed beings that leap from the page to engage you in the plot... The writing is pitch-perfect, from the language used to the intricate weaving of plot threads. This is a talented writer, a name I will expect to find on New York Times best-seller lists." -Kelly Jenkins, SF Crowsnest Review
