A review of my new releases and upcoming books to look out for. Information on where to buy will be available soon!
NEW RELEASE - The Dark Man
The Dark Man was the first novel acquired for the second release list of Marcher Lord Press. The story was so bizarre, so beautiful, an
d so well written that we said, "We have to publish this."
Charles Graves is a master of disguise working with the secret police to bring down the last remnants of 21st century Christianity.
Possessed of remarkable powers of disguise--and haunted by a mysterious talking wooden puzzle--Charles is the government's most potent weapon against these undesireables.
Charles effortlessly becomes other people, slipping into character like others step through a doorway. But what remains of Charles's own character is being pulled under by his accursed past. When he is not working a job, he is lost to alcohol and despair.
And then comes one more assignment. Take down the ringleader of the Christian cult holding forth from some secret quarter of militarized Houston.
He doesn't know it, but God has plans for Charles. Along the way he'll discover the truth about his past, the extent of his depravity, and the strength to look inside.
Perhaps through love and firepower and a change of leadership, Charles can cease to be a man of darkness.
The Dark Man, Marc Schooley, Marcher Lord Press, April 2009, 396 pages, $13.99
