Lexa
Cain (writing as L X Cain) first came to my attention
through the beautiful masthead of her Egypt-inspired blog (do go and visit it here). We blogged back and forth, and
subsequently it was an honor to receive her endorsement of my descriptions of
the modern Egyptian (in Sirocco). She
should know: Although born in the US, Lexa has been living in Egypt for many
years now.
Today, it is my great pleasure to feature her latest
novel released on October 4th:
BLOODWALKER
The story actually has nothing to do with Ancient or
present-day Egypt. This book falls truly into the Thriller/Mystery/Horror
genres. Already, it ranks high on Amazon with numerous four- and five-star
reviews with comments like, “Exceptional
from beginning to end.” “I cringed, I gasped, I pondered, I theorized, I begged
and pleaded, then finally the ride was over, and I wanted more.”
Lightning
flashes. Another child disappears…
When Zorka
Circus performs, its big top roars with laughter and cheers, but when it moves
on, there are fewer children in the European towns it leaves behind.
Circus
Security Chief Rurik suspects a killer hides among the international
performers, but they close ranks—they’ve always viewed lightning-scarred Rurik
as the monster. Nevertheless, he's determined to find the culprit and stop them
before anyone else dies and the only place he can call home is ripped apart by
the murders.
Into Zorka
Circus comes the Skomori clan, despised as gravediggers and ghoulish
bloodwalkers. A one-day truce allows bloodwalker Sylvie to marry. Instead, she
finds a body. Alerting others will defy her clan’s strict rules, break the
truce, and leave her an outcast.
When more
bodies turn up, the killer's trail becomes impossible to ignore. Rurik and
Sylvie must follow the clues—even if they lead to something unimaginable...
A perfect story for Halloween.
But be
sure to lock your doors before you settle down to read.
