Now Released from
Freedom Fox Press (Dancing Lemur Press L.L.C.)

BLOODWALKER by L.X. Cain

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.

“YA horror novelist Cain (Soul Cutter) steps right up to the center ring in this captivating shocker of children disappearing after the circus comes to town.”
~ Publishers Weekly

NEW RELEASE! The Mission (A Short Story)

Something is waiting for Cody and Luke at the Mission. And it doesn't want them to leave. Ever.

As in Stephen King’s It and Dan Simmons’s Summer of Night, curiosity is what lures kids down a dark path and pits them against their town’s most deadly secret.

The Mission sits in the desert like a crumbling tomb, silent and cold … but not empty. It plays host to a rising evil, one that wants victims. And it’s used to getting what it wants.

Cody and Luke are looking for adventure and thrills when they ride out to visit the place on a dare. Before the night is over, they’ll learn how far their friendship can stretch, and if they’re strong enough to survive the terrifying danger that waits for them.

Only $.99 at https://www.smashwords.com/books/view/541826

This is wicked! Sorry to be so slow on the uptake. Why does the storyline remind me of The Black Ankh? It's none the worse for that

I hope my reviews back in the day helped in some small way

The cover of my novel was released today -- but gremlins stole it, messed up the artwork in 10 different ways, and put it on 10 blogs.

Eek!

If you can find all 10 errors, you can win a prize, including a free copy of my novel.
