“A pathological serial killer is terrorizing Seattle and the only person standing in his way is Detective Robi Darcmel. From the chilling opening scene to the last lines of the first episode, I don't remember taking a deep breath. As one observer notes in the opening scene at the slaughter house to a man clearly intrigued by the sight and smell of blood, visceral and flesh—‘You are one sick puppy, dude.’ Indeed.”

Amazon Reviewer

“The first episode of this serial grabbed my attention immediately, and I couldn't turn my Kindle pages fast enough! The sharp sensory detail drops you into every scene, and the superb characterization adds unexpected layers to the storyline. Detective Robi Darcmel is simply fascinating, and the characters around him are the perfect foil for his brilliant peculiarities.

As the timer runs down on the fate of the entire city, it is the love of a little girl that can lead to either his salvation or utter destruction.

Praise for
Club Death

The prologue immediately drew me in with the dark voice of a killer. From there, scenes unfolded introducing several different characters and a unique set up for a thriller that will keep the reader turning the pages to see what happens next! Teens will root for the young people in the story and enjoy the HIVE and Keaton, the young entrepreneur with his business, while all readers should enjoy the interesting storyline!

Dirty Little Secrets

I whipped through this first part of the Club Death series. I loved the concept of the "hive" and I'm very curious about what happens next with the characters. This first part in the series held a mixture of intrigue, suspense, mystery, humor, and a touch of romance. I'll be grabbing up the next part as soon as it comes out!

About the Author

Carolyn has had a long and extremely interesting road to become a bestseller.

When she head to veterinary school those many years ago she had no idea decades later she would be writing controversial historical thrillers, gut wrenching mysteries and roller coaster-style action/adventure tales!

Born in San Francisco and raised in the beautiful Napa Valley, Carolyn always had an overactive imagination. As a child you could usually find her dragging the neighborhood children out to the haunted barn to make her Nancy Drew-style audio tapes. Oh and did she mention, there was an entire life-sized recreation of the nativity scene in the rafters? Yeah, that wasn't just a little creepy.

Which of course was great practice for writing such blockbusters as
Plain Jane
: A Patterson-style thriller with a dash of Hannibal and
30 Pieces of Silver
: An Extremely Controversial Historical Thriller.

With over 250,000 books sold, Carolyn now lives on a beautiful lake in the Pacific Northwest where the fog rolls in over the water, snuffing out all signs of life around her. Yep, she still loves the creepy!

My very first acknowledgment must go to Gary. Somehow through everything, he raised me right.

Then, of course, must come Jim. My best friend for over two decades. Mentor, hero, and fellow video game junkie.

And Dee Dee, always loud and proud. Who has somehow convinced me to #ack go out and meet new people #weird
