Walking Wounded

Read Walking Wounded Storyline:

THE GIFT Her hands can sense it within your body: the ticking time bomb of disease, the cry of inner hurt, the coming of something as simple as a cold. And her hands can heal it, if she chooses, or they can leave you with your pain-and your fate... THE OBSESSION Now Katt must make a choice, between curing a husband who had been unfaithful or letting him die, between taking his extraordinary lover for herself, or letting her go... THE TOUCH For Katt it will be a journey through discovery, sensuality, and death. But in the shadows of her life, at a restaurant and on the street, a serial killer has begun to stalk her and her lover. And he will take them both into a darkness where hands must heal, or hands must kill... WALKING WOUNDED The power to heal. The power to kill. The power to choose...*** From Publishers Weekly In his second erotic thriller, Devereaux (Deadweight) carves deep into the psyche of Katt, a disillusioned wife who must choose between using her miraculous powers to cure her terminally ill and cheating husband, or letting him die and taking his lover for herself. Caught in the middle of this wild love triangle is Conner, Katt's 13-year-old son, who has inherited his father's disease. A drill-wielding serial killer, introduced early, further complicates the plot and plays a vital role in the novel's climax. Beautiful and sensual one page, frighteningly repulsive and twisted the next, Walking Wounded is well-suited to an era of alternative lifestyles, New Age mysticism and senseless violence.*** 'Devereaux is horror's hottest new star.' -Fangoria 'Devereaux delivers, with a super-heated mix of murder, dark eroticism, and... online sex.' -Lucy Taylor, author of The Safety of Unknown Cities 'A rare treat... At the heart of all Devereaux's writing are the twin embryos of love and pain. In Walking Wounded he has explored their perverse dependency with an expert's tender touch. This book is both a challenge and a rare treat!' -Poppy Z. Brite, author of Exquisite Corpse
