My first novel, Caged, an urban fantasy set in modern day Northern Virginia, is finally published and available for purchase.
Like X-Files meets Die Hard.
A scientist and the federal agent who is hoping to keep her alive are trapped in a building with a horde of hungry vampires. It wouldn’t be that unusual of a night, if it weren’t for the zombies.
Caged takes place in an alternate version of modern-day Northern Virginia, where vampires, commonly known as vees, are considered our greatest threat. Cate, a scientist who works for the National Vampire Intelligence Agency (NVIA), is researching a vaccine to immunize humans against vees. Daniel, one of the vees set to be part of her experiments, has other plans. Mason, a special agent with the NVIA, would rather be anywhere else than in the research facility, especially once the zombies break out.
Early Reviews from Amazon Readers:
“You’ll be swept into this compelling story from page one as you’re transported to a frightening but fascinating world populated by humans, zombies and vampires. Your guide is Cate, a government scientist facing her own challenges as she works to find solutions to restore the normal world of her childhood. “Caged,” offers characters with depth in a world where not all vampires are bad and you don’t always know who the real monsters are. Prepare to keep turning pages until you reach the startling conclusion. There is plenty of excitement and gore but as the end of this first book in a trilogy, I was most excited about knowing there is more to the story coming soon (I hope!) in book two.”
“Caged is a departure from the genres I usually read (most often non-fiction), but I found this action fantasy so compelling I didn’t want to put it down. The plot was intriguing and, living in the DC area, I especially enjoyed that the book was set in a secure government facility; so much about that rang very true to me. There were action and suspense down every hallway and behind every door. The characters were complex and sympathetic. I want to know what happens to them next and hope the second book will be out soon! I also appreciated the strong female characters, most notably Cate.”
I hope enjoy the first book in the V to Z Trilogy. I enjoyed writing Caged and am hard at work on the sequel. If you like the book, please leave a review on Amazon and/or Goodreads. Reviews help book sales and book sales help support my writing habit.
Thank you in advance!
