Produktbeschreibung

EVIL LURKS IN THE BLOOD

Rufus is an idle youth content to spend his scholarships on stiff drink and loose company, but even he knows such a life cannot last forever. On the cusp of financial ruin, he receives a letter from his estranged grandfather, Baron Matthias Grünewald, promising him the rustic village of Altstadt and its environs upon the heir's return to the family estate. Against his better judgment, Rufus boards a black coach and is ferried to a far, fogbound stretch of moorland-ever in the shadow of Schloss Fleischberg and the unspeakable horrors therein.

Shortly after his arrival, Rufus discovers that his grandfather has died of mysterious circumstances following an expedition into "the Pit" beneath the old keep. He is soon swept in a labyrinth of rural politics, madness and murderous creatures with the truth of his ancestor's sins at its heart, torn between securing his family fortune and preserving his own life. Though Rufus enlists mercenaries of all stripes to chart the dark corners of the estate, all remain ignorant to the evil stirring beneath their feet-and the apocalyptic threat it poses.

Set four hundred years before the Geist series, Inheritance is both a stand-alone work and a companion piece to Leper Errant, though its passages illuminate a cosmic revelation which pervades more than its own pages imply. Return to the world of Geist under the pall of gothic horror, and witness Rufus in his pursuit of family redemption. No good will come of his endeavors, but will he retain his humanity? Or will he succumb to the darkness that dwells not only in these forlorn halls, but his very lineage as well?

Autorenporträt

I woke up one morning and decided to give play time to the people in my head who were keeping me awake. Little did I know that they would be so relentless and want their time right now! I wrote for the pure joy of it and to entertain my family and friends. But mostly it was to get more than an hour of sleep without a story playing out. Of course, the more I write, the more they want. So...well, as a result of sleepless days (I work through the night as a gun toting grandma nope not a vigilantly but an armed security guard) I have lots of stories written.

Hello! My name is Kathi Barton and I'm an author. I have been married to my very best friend Sonny for at times seems several lifetimes in a good way, honey. And together we have three wonderful children and then the ones we brought into the world - Paul and Dale Barton, Jason and Wendy Barton and Danielle and Ben Conklin. They have given us seven of the greatest treasures on Earth. They don't live at home seven days a week! No, seriously, seven grandchildren Gavin, Spring, Ben, Trinity, Sarah, Kelly and Kian.
