Life is about to become a nightmare... Sixteen-year-old Parrish Sorrows lives in the shadow of her prodigy sister, ignored by her parents and shunned as an outsider at her private school. But today, everything changes. An ancient evil awakens, spreading a magical virus that will kill millions in a matter of weeks. When the dead begin to awaken, survivors must battle an enemy they can't even begin to comprehend. But as the rest of the world is dying, a mysterious power inside Parrish is reborn. A power that reveals she's the key to saving what's left of the world. And she's not the only one. Told from alternating points of view, Death's Awakening is equal parts fantasy and horror, witches and zombies, love and loss. It is the story of five extraordinary survivors struggling to realize their destiny as they fight against the darkest evil this world has ever seen.

"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. For over two decades, Detective Ray Truman has been searching for the killer or killers who have terrorized Portvale. Headless corpses, their bodies mutilated and posed, have been turning up all over the industrial district near the docks. The remains of young female prostitutes have been the killer's victims of choice, but now other districts are reporting the gruesome discovery of decapitated bodies. It seems the killer has expanded his territory as more 'nice girls' feel the wrath of his terrible rage. 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 crime thriller in the vein of other power-packed thrillers like Thomas Harris's 'Silence of the Lambs' and James Ellroy's 'Killer on the Road.' BLOOD RELATED is a chilling Psychological Thriller that will leave you gasping for more. Warning: R18+ contains adult content + graphic violence & psychological horror. http://www.amazon.com/Blood-Related-Psychological-William-Cook-ebook/dp/B011LSLNSM/ref=asap_bc?ie=UTF8
