Detective
Liam Grady was stumped.
Never
in his long years as a New Orleans Homicide Detective had he
encountered a serial killer who literally drained his victims.
The
mummified shell of a once beautiful student was the first sign this
case was extraordinary. Within days she was joined by a high-class
call-girl and a frumpy housewife. All died in the same sadistic
manner.
What
did they have in common, besides their strange demise?
Things
are not as they seem. The victims have dark secrets, and tales of
Haitian malignant spirits offer a slim lead. But it mean Liam has to
ditch everything he believes in and open his mind to a conjecture
that defied logic.
As
he struggles with his own demons, Liam joins forces with a pretty
student and a Mysterious Vodou witch doctor to stop whatever it is
that holds New Orleans in its bloody grasp.
Time
is of the essence.
The
bodies are piling up.
And
now the monster has Liam in its sights.

Monique
Singleton writes compelling stories that mix fantasy with realistic
psychological suspense and unique insights into the mind of the main
characters. She has always had an overactive fantasy and in 2010
Monique started to put the scenes she had running around in her head,
down to paper. Scenes led to a story, the story to a book, and the
first book to a series: The Primal Series was born. If you are
looking for Urban Fantasy with a twist, a different kind of shifter
story, a tale like no other, then this series is for you. Expect the
unexpected. In addition to her writing, Monique holds down a
full-time job as a business consultant. She lives in a beautiful old
farmhouse in the south of Holland with her two sloppy monster dogs,
some horses, and a cat.

What comes first in the authors mind, the title or the story line?
ReplyDeleteIt depends on each author and each book to be honest. I've had books that have come from a character, or a title popping in my head or the story line. Various things can spark a story and then other various things spark it continuing or certain scenes. Hope this helps!
DeleteSounds intense!
ReplyDeleteI like books that take place in New Orleans! Sounds like a good book.
