Dark

By C. C. Blake

Ville and Shorty are couple of hotheaded rednecks with an ax to grind. As twilight settles, they are hunting for targets.

Rick and Lupe hope to leave their worries behind by driving into San Antonio for a good old dinner-and-a-picture-show date. Before the night is over, they will learn about terror.

Hal is hoping to arrange a reunion hook up with his old flame. Before dawn, he will discover he should have moved on.

When these five characters meet on the back roads of south Texas, this will be one hell of a night . . .

Fans of Joe R. Lansdale, Richard Laymon and Jack Ketchum will find plenty of thrills and suspense in C. C. Blake's "Dark."

C. C. Blake

C.C. Blake has lived across the United States, starting in the suburbs of Detroit, to Massachusetts’ second largest city (Worcester) to the country’s seventh largest city (San Antonio, Texas, that is). He’s has a variety of jobs, working as a substitute teacher, the graveyard shift dishwasher at a haunted Denny’s, lab research monkey and teaching assistant at a second tier college. Currently, he works as an automation consultant for a chemical company on the Northeast side of SAtown (which isn’t as Hellish as it sounds). Blake’s most popular character, irrepressible adventurer Chuck Cave, has appeared in over two dozen stories, including the 2005 Man’s Story 2 Story of the Year Award winner “Chuck Cave and the Vanishing Vixen.” The character’s supernatural thriller stories (which began with the seminal “Cave and the Vamp”) are all being released as a part of Vampires2.com’s initial foray into e-books. These new versions are presented in expanded and revised versions, all are the author’s preferred texts. Be sure to collect them all! In addition to his pulp stories for the 2-Empire (Man’s Story 2, Vampires 2, Androids 2 and Paranormal Romance 2), Blake’s fiction has appeared in several anthologies, including Unparalleled Journeys II (from Journey Books Publishing) and Fearology: Terrifying Tales of Phobias (from Library of Horror Press).
