What readers are saying - please see customer reviews below "Both my head and my heart responded to Mr. Ryan's prose." "This has been a book to remember." "This well researched book introduces characters that will live on in your memory long after the last page is completed." "A real page turner. Ryan has a way with words that will satisfy any discriminating reader." Julian Blessing's high-octane Wall Street career is likely to land him in prison. The economy is rapidly melting down. His ex-wife wants him dead and some Russian mobsters share her sentiments. And that's just today. Julian thinks now would be the right time to start listening to the voice only he hears. The words Julian hears bring a message as emphatic as it is baffling and propels him to a village on the rugged coast of Ireland. A madman possessing supernatural powers wants to sow terror in the hearts of those in the village. His craving for revenge and his limitless greed put Julian directly in his path. By protecting the village, Julian puts himself high on the madman's to-be-slaughtered list. Desperate for any advantage, Julian discovers the Hagan, a woman with vast supernatural gifts who is steeped in Ireland's ancient wisdom. Hers are otherworldly talents with decidedly this-worldly applications. Victims are multiplying fast as Julian races to unlock the Hagan's mysterious arts. Her arcane knowledge is the only hope he has of drawing his fellow villagers back from annihilation. To stay alive long enough to use what he learns, Julian must trust his heart to a stranger, his soul to a witch and place his life in the hands of a village full of Irish lunatics. ECHOES THROUGH THE MIST is the first book in the Echoes Quartet. Released by Penman House Publishing and distributed exclusively by Amazon.com
Autorenporträt
K. Francis Ryan is a freelance writer who coaches writing-challenged business professionals around the world. His experience as a feature writer for a small town newspaper, a police officer and an internationally accredited stockbroker is evident the writing of his first novel ECHOES THROUGH THE MIST. This first book in the Echoes Quartet is set in modern-day Ireland. Mr. Ryan has lived the history, language, humor, lore, music, madness and magic of Ireland by way of his lively Irish heritage. When coupled with his careful research and extensive travel in the Republic of Ireland, ECHOES THROUGH THE MIST has developed a very distinctive voice of its own. He is currently working on his second novel, ECHOES OF ROME, and outlining the third and fourth. He lives on the side of an active volcano in an even more active earthquake zone in the Republic of Costa Rica. Surely that's not as horrifying as it sounds, right?
