Produktbeschreibung
In the latest thriller from critically acclaimed Michele W. Miller comes a "superbly written tale of urban survivors fighting to save themselves once more." (Publishers Weekly). A gripping reimagining that weaves together supernatural suspense with historic events of the early 1990s. As New York City's crack epidemic rages, Raven has overcome her addiction and will soon begin law school. But night terrors have begun to haunt her and her friends. Many of them return to drug use, disappear, or commit bizarre acts of violence. A mysterious new drug epidemic grips the city, while police corruption, a U.S. attorney campaigning for mayor, and riots hamstring the city's defense. Raven and her friends-along with a journalist trying to help a teenage prostitute-must stand up to the sadistic man behind the chaos or lose all they've gained. Yet, as recovering addicts, they are the most vulnerable to his inexplicably attractive powers. The Lower Power combines the supernatural and social history for fans of Whitley Strieber's The Wolfen and Gabino Iglesias's The Devil Takes You Home.
Autorenporträt
Michele's books have been named "Best of 2019" by Strand Magazine; Outstanding August 2021 Mystery & Suspense title by Library Journal; and semi-finalist in the Amazon Breakthrough Novel Awards. Kirkus Reviews calls her "Mary Higgins Clark with Teeth." Michele has lived most of her life in Upper Manhattan-Harlem and Washington Heights-where her novels often take place and where she currently resides with her husband, 20-year-old twin sons, two cats, and a large dog. Former chief government ethics prosecutor for NYC, she now serves as General Counsel for a non-profit agency that provides re-entry services to the formerly incarcerated. She has herself overcome addiction, homelessness, and incarceration. (MIchele sometimes writes under the name Michele Weinstat Miller.)
