Product Description
But their friend had raised from the dead a disciple of Satan named Magellan. When he smells the purity of Jim and Nadia’s affection, his master orders him to rend and corrupt their love. Magellan obeys with relish.
In the Rain with the Dead is both a horror novel and a romance set in the tired English town of Gaffney. But be warned, this is not a vampire-lite paranormal romance. Satan’s undead disciple is pure evil; there are a few very strong scenes indeed!
In the Rain with the Dead was originally published by Pendragon Press in 2005. This Greyhart Press eBook edition has been substantially revised since the original.
From the Author
In The Rain With The Dead will grab you from page one and keep you in its clutches until the very last page! Mark West does what he does best - he scares the living daylights out of his readers!
-T. M. Gray, author of "Ghosts of Eden", "The Ravenous" and "Mr. Crisper"
One of the most outstanding features of Mark West's story-telling is that he doesn't waste words. His crisp, economic style reels you straight in, and the horror hits you hard and quickly and refuses to lay off. Don't expect to be on familiar territory either. There are no run-of-the-mill ghouls and ghosties here. No, the terror Mark West evokes is of a far more real, and in that respect, more sinister ilk. He writes from the dark underside of our everyday human existence, calling on the sort of personal demons one could easily imagine lying in wait for any one of us. Tread here at your peril..."
-Paul Finch, author of "Aftershocks" and "Cape Wrath"
Mark West is an excellent, young writer. His compelling stories have a well-crafted, slowly increasing sense of tension and dread, sometimes with a hint of creepy paranoia reminiscent of Phillip K. Dick mixed in, the endings always abrupt and chilling, like an unexpected splash in the face wtih ice water.
- Gene O'Neill, author of "The Burden of Indigo"
