The Abduction Myth free download

My new novel, The Abduction Myth, is free to download today on Amazon!  Just follow this link:  

https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01KI6XNJU  

Although the link will bring you to the U.S. Amazon, you'll find a handy link on the page to the Amazon for whatever country you happen to be shopping in.  And no Kindle is required!  You can download a free app that will allow you to read the book on your computer, if so required; the link is once again right there on the Amazon page, next to the photo of the book.


May I also humbly request that should you download The Abduction Myth, and should you find anything of value in it, would you please please please write a review.  Even if the review is just one line, such as, "Hey, I really liked it," that's good enough.  Reader reviews are critical to an independent author's success--people won't risk their money on an unreviewed novel, and Amazon won't feature it.  


Finally, you can follow this link to an earlier post that in turn will lead you to the first three chapters of The Abduction Myth, as well as three excerpts:

It's a good book, with an ending that will never leave you.  Download it, read it, love it (I hope), & review it!  Also feel free to tell all of your friends.  Thank you!!!!





After a disastrous breakup Stevie Callaghan, a shy book illustrator, is in desperate need of an apartment.  Against her better judgment she moves above a bookstore owned by Rick Smith, an intimidating, scruffy intellectual beloved by his customers and staff despite his brusque manner.  Stevie is horrified to learn that all of his employees come from a young offender program. 

She soon befriends Rick’s staff, however, and becomes a regular at the bookstore cafe.  Just as she begins to feel settled, she witnesses a late-night fire no one else seems to notice.  She also finds herself haunted by a recurring dream in which she is visited by a talking dragon.  Worse yet, Rick’s newest employee Vince, a disturbed born-again Christian, develops an obsessive interest in her.  Rick, on the other hand, seems to hold Stevie in utter contempt—until he initiates a relationship with her when she least expects it.  To her own surprise Stevie falls in love with him, even though he remains something of a mystery to her.  Stevie’s overbearing mother is instantly suspicious of Rick, but she cannot persuade Stevie to leave him.

Events take a harrowing turn when Vince becomes convinced that Rick is Satan, and embarks on a twisted campaign to “save” Stevie that leaves her life shattered.   After someone close to her is then the victim of a brutal murder, Stevie is forced to confront her mother’s suspicions that Rick is not at all who he claims to be.
