Blood Related - Tapa blanda

BLOOD RELATED is a chilling Psychological Thriller that will leave you gasping for more

For over two decades, Detective Ray Truman has been searching for the killer or killers terrorizing Portvale. Headless mutilated corpses have been turning up all over the industrial district. Young female prostitutes have been the killer’s victims of choice, but now other districts are reporting similar gruesome discoveries of decapitated bodies. This horrifically disturbing tale of a family tree of evil will embed itself in the mind of the reader, long after the last page has been turned. A psychological crime novel in the vein of other power-packed thrillers like Thomas Harris's 'Silence of the Lambs,' James Patterson's Alex Cross series and James Ellroy's 'Killer on the Road.' Meet the Cunninghams . . . A family bound by evil and the blood they have spilled. The large lodging-house they live in reeks of death and the sins that remain trapped beneath the floorboards. Meet Caleb Cunningham . . . Caleb is a disturbed young man whose disturbing fantasy-life becomes reality after the suicide of his father. His identical twin brother Charlie is to be released from an asylum and all hell is about to break loose when the brothers combine their psychopathic talents. Eventually stepping out from the shadows of his murderous forebears, Caleb puts in motion his own diabolical plan to reveal himself and his ‘art’ to the world. Meet Ray Truman . . . Overworked and underpaid, Truman is tenacious as a pit-bull. He won’t rest ‘til he’s brought to justice Portvale’s infamous serial killer. His battle with his own demons gives him the strength to chase the shadows and to cut corners when necessary, as he embarks on the hunt of his life. His search leads him to the Cunningham’s house of horrors. What he finds there will ultimately lead him to regret ever meeting Caleb Cunningham and the deviant family that spawned him. The hunter becomes the hunted as Truman digs deeper into the abyss that is the horrifying mind of the most dangerous psychopath he has ever met. Warning: R18+ contains adult content + graphic violence & psychological horror.

"William Cook tells a gruesome story with a sense of authenticity that makes you question with considerable unease if it really is fiction, after all." – Graham Masterton, author of The Manitou and Descendant

“This man is simply scary. There is both a clinical thoroughness and a heartfelt emotional thoroughness to his writing. He manages to shock as well as empathize, to scare as well as acclimatize, yet beneath it all is a well read intelligence that demands to be engaged. I loved Blood Related. Ordinarily I hate serial killer stories, but William Cook won me over. He is a unique and innovative talent.” – Joe McKinney, Bram Stoker Award-winning author of Flesh Eaters and Dog Days "BLOOD RELATED is a terrifying Psychological Thriller. William Cook is an author to watch." - Mark Edward Hall, best-selling author of Apocalypse Island and the Blue Light Thriller series.
