I’ve got a new novel coming out. Another so soon after The Irresistible Summons, I hear you ask? Yes. This one’s called Phantom Audition.
A supernaturally tinged psychological mystery, Phantom Audition is another gripping nail-biter, but for all it’s creepy edges, I refuse to call it a horror story, as it really isn’t all that scary. I know the cover and the blurb make it appear otherwise, but this is more of a suspenseful, mess-with-your-head tale than an outright terrifying one. Despite a violent sequence near the finale, I reckon my mother could probably read it, and she scares quite easily.
Here’s the blurb from the back of the book:
Small-time actress Mia Yardley, recently widowed wife of renowned actor Steven Yardley, discovers her late husband’s secret acting diary.
The diary details appointments made with a psychic medium, who advised Steven on which roles to take. It also raises questions about his mysterious and inexplicable suicide.
Seeking answers, Mia speaks to the medium, but in doing so is drawn into an ever- deepening mystery about what happened to her husband during the final days of his life. Eventually, she is forced to ask the terrible question: was Steven Yardley murdered by a vengeful evil from beyond the grave?
Phantom Audition is published by Dragon Soul Press, and is out on the 19th of October. Click here to pre-order your copy now.
