Meet Jimmy. Exorcist. Shameless. Cursed.
Not All Exorcists are Equal....One is Marked
When defrocked ex-priest, Jimmy Holiday, agrees to help an old friend with his sick daughter, he doesn’t expect the horrors that await him. Blackmoor, his friend’s new residence, rests upon the outskirts of the town of Sorrow’s Point. The mansion’s history of magic, mayhem, and death makes it almost a living thing – a haunted mansion straight out of a Stephen King novel. Jimmy must decide if the young girl, Lucy, is only ill, or if the haunting of the house and her apparent possession are real.
After the house appears to affect him as well with colors of magic dancing before his eyes, rooms warded by a witch, and a ring of power in his voice, Jimmy is met by a transient who tells him he has “the Mark.” Whatever being “marked” means, Jimmy doesn’t care. All he wants to do is help Lucy. But, helping Lucy means performing an exorcism.
“Defrocked priest Jimmy Holiday's narrative voice is a strong blend of insightful, self-deprecating, and sincere.” - Publisher's Weekly ★★★★★
AUTHOR INTERVIEW
Q: Who are you and what is your writing like?
A: I’m a quirky girl from West Virginia who loves all things horror. Give me vampires, ghosts, werewolves, and other things that go bump in the night, and I’m happy as a clam. My writing reflects that as well as my sense of humor. I don’t think I’ve written anything that doesn’t have one character that provides some element of comic relief.
Q: What books do you write?
A: I write fantasy, horror, and now sci-fi for both young adults and adults. I’ve also dabbled with YA Paranormal Romance and would like to sink my feet into that again. And, I have an idea for a historical. But the historical requires a lot of research and is many moon off.
THE MARKER CHRONICLES
- SORROW’S POINT (book 1)
- SORROW’S EDGE (book 2)
- SORROW’S TURN (book 3)
- SORROW’S LIE (book 4)
Q: Why should readers pick up your books?
A: The Marker Chronicles is one of those weird stories. It’s about exorcism and told from the point of view of the exorcist. But, Jimmy Holiday isn’t your ordinary exorcist. He’s something else.
