Skinwalker
Kisses and Chaos Book 2
Star-crossed lovers Teri Warden and Luther Sweetwater have to survive more than just each other, they have to survive the Skinwalker… a shape-shifting domestic terrorist vampire sweeps across America, staging horrific mass killings and morphing into his victims, drawing Teri and Sweetwater into a deadly chase from the Midwest to the heart of Texas, where shadows loom as large as the stakes.
This is a new breed of terror that has descended upon America, embodied by a vampire with a sinister ability to shape-shift after each kill, adopting the identities of his victims to elude capture. Beginning his reign of terror in Dayton, Ohio, he orchestrates a devastating attack, transforming into a city bus driver before setting his sights on a popular family destination in Florida. Here, his ruthless precision culminates in a tragic mass casualty event, marked by his chilling calling card: “LEI” spray-painted at the scene. This act of violence propels LifeEnders agents Teri Warden and Luther Sweetwater into a frantic pursuit across state lines, racing to intercept the killer before another city falls victim to his gruesome agenda. As the vampire slices a path of destruction through Atlanta and Memphis, he encounters unexpected resistance in the form of Lobo, a police dog and the sole eyewitness to one of his transformations. With Lobo’s acute senses aiding their mission, Teri and Sweetwater set a trap in Memphis that spirals into chaos, leaving Teri grievously injured and Sweetwater ousted fromLifeEnders, Inc., under a cloud of blame.
Angry but undeterred, Sweetwater and his loyal canine companion track the killer to Dallas, where a final confrontation unfolds at LEI headquarters. In a heart-stopping finale, Sweetwater must drive a bomb-laden car to a heroic watery grave, a decision that could save countless lives or seal his own fate.
From The Author
First and foremost, thank you for reading my work.
When you spend your hard-earned money to purchase my book(s), it’s a humbling experience. I feel a deep responsibility to give you the best books possible, not only in terms of plot, characters and narrative, but also proper word usage and grammar. This does not and should not imply perfection on my part. Far from it. However, whatever errors may creep into the work are regretted by the author, who asks forgiveness in advance.
My one and only intention for this and my other books is to entertain the reader. Perhaps to also inform, especially in my non-fiction, but information is only useful when delivered in such a way that it’s remembered.
Readers are special people. I appreciate you all because I’m one of you. Books are my life, as my overflowing bookshelves will attest. Everything I have done in my life has led to this moment. From majoring in Creative Writing to absorbing military history over the last 50+ years, I have devoted my life to this book and all those yet to come.
I pray you feel the effort was worthwhile.
