Produktbeschreibung

In the heart of bustling, eerie London, a vicious killer lurks in the shadows, setting their sights on Westminster politicians and anyone tied to a long-buried secret-a fatal 'Masquerade Party' where a young girl's life was snuffed out. The truth was concealed, corruption entrenched, with hopes the incident would vanish into obscurity. But the dark secrets only festered, and now, the vengeful killers emerge from the shadows. For Detective George Reynolds, joining the area-wide murder task force guided by the enigmatic DS Michael Dalton has unleashed a never-ending torrent of bloodshed. His second case dives headlong into the wake of the 'Kanaima demon,' a favour for ADI Locke. The horrors they unearth are rooted in the supernatural, as the 'Black Widow' is unleashed from hell itself to sow chaos upon the city. George is torn between his moral compass and role as a pack 'Alpha' when he uncovers the killer's chilling motive, while DS Dalton grapples with a newfound identity as a shapeshifter. Relentless evil stains the streets of London with blood, and under the unwavering guidance of DS Michael Dalton, they must unravel the intricate web connecting the lifeless body of Inspector Bamford from the parliament's diplomatic protection unit. However, time is running out as each victim's body decays rapidly, ultimately turning to dust. George's initiation into this hidden world is nothing short of a baptism by fire, thrusting him onto a treacherous path on his werewolf journey. Amidst the chaos, his blossoming relationship with the brilliant pathologist, Ellena Walker, is tested when she's left uncertain of George's survival after a devastating explosion. Prepare yourself for a spine-tingling trip deep into the heart of darkness, where love and horror entwine within the chilling confines of a supernatural serial killer case. As George races against the relentless passage of time, be ready to have your heartstrings tugged by the chilling story of the killer. "Black Widow - Death is a Masquerade" will keep you on the edge of your seat, daring you to confront the profound darkness lurking in the city's very shadows.

Autorenporträt

My journey as a writer began years ago, kindled by an early fascination with English literature and language, a passion ignited during my GCSE studies. It was the timeless narrative of 'Of Mice and Men' that first captured my imagination, leading me down a path forever intertwined with storytelling. As life unfolded, I explored various passions and embraced the responsibilities of adulthood. I navigated through life's complexities, finding joy and fulfilment in raising two wonderful sons. Now, as they step into their journeys, I've been graced with the opportunity to revisit my first love: writing. My ambition is to craft immersive worlds that readers can lose themselves in, worlds where the lines between the supernatural, crime thrillers, and horror blur into an irresistible tapestry of intrigue and character-driven narratives. "Secrets in the Bones," my fourth novel, marks a significant milestone in my writing career. It represents not just another story but a venture outside my comfort zone, being the first work I've presented to agents and publishers. With a treasure trove of stories waiting to be told, my journey as an author is far from over. I am currently immersed in writing "The Cursed Knights - the Book of the Dead," a foray deeper into the horror genre. Each new story is an adventure, an opportunity to explore the uncharted realms of imagination, and a chance to connect with readers who share my love for the mysterious and the macabre.
