Jack the Anthropophagite

By Blak Rayne

‘Jack will eat no fat but will devour lean.’

While drifting from town to town, Zeus and Brody meet Mr. McMurty, a generous widower in need of help. In exchange for a place to stay, they agree to do odd jobs around his farm.
Then one rainy night, Zeus notices a man standing outside the bathroom window. Brody searches the property but finds no trace. Zeus is certain of what he saw, and he’s certain their peaceful stint is about to come to an abrupt end.

Blak Rayne

A good friend, who is also an author, happened to mention that she likes to read author bios, and when she checked mine, sadly, she was disappointed. The bio I use is generic, blah, and it doesn't tell her anything personal about Blak Rayne. Her suggestion. Change it! What she really meant to say: "I want to read the juicy bits, lady!" Okay, the truth. My life is crazy hectic most days as I divide my time between family, friends, writing and marketing, while running our businesses and household. I spend an average of eight to twelve hours a day on the computer. Some of my favourite things are: cats, tea, anything in purple, yaoi, dragons, watching anime and movies, and listening to my large collection of music. I will read just about anything, but my preferred genres are fantasy, thriller, romance and science-fiction. I'm a member of the RWA & RWA-GVC, I attend conferences and writing groups whenever time permits, and I've taken several creative writing courses. In my spare time I build websites and proof-read for other authors. I also format eBooks, and I'm learning to create book covers. In the near future, I hope to take an editing course. Currently, I reside in British Columbia, Canada with my husband, our daughter and son. Out eldest passed away, so he's with us in spirit. What else can I tell you? Lots of things, but the most important tidbit, I'm passionate about my writing and plan to continue publishing. How many novels? Who knows, I guess until the ideas run dry.

About The Author

Author’s Note

If you’ve come this far, then you’re about to read the third installment in my Reaper series, Jack the Anthropophagite. I dare you to say that fast three times. If you can’t, don’t worry; I can scarcely pronounce it properly myself. Strange as it might sound, I wanted a title that would stand out and, perhaps, make potential readers pause for thought.

Brody’s next opponent is Jack. Less agile than Maxine, but far more cunning, he’s another serial killer with a grisly past. Jack is the oldest of the End Life inductees. At over fifty, he has accumulated more kills than Brody and Maxine combined. What is an anthropophagite? Well, you’ll just have to read the story to find out.
