About this ebook

When the Ink Dries, Someone Dies

Something strange is happening to Giles Barrett. A horror writer of modest renown, he gets his inspiration from seeing ordinary people in everyday life. But when his dark imagination takes over his characters dont just die, they must first confront their most terrifying fears. Then one day Giles stumbles upon an obituary in the newspaper with the same name as one of the characters in his stories. What he dismisses as coincidence becomes all too real when it happens again, and the closer Giles comes do discovering the horrifying truth the more his inspiration takes control, threatening to destroy everything he holds dear. Eventually Giles must face his own worst fear if he is to have any hope of silencing the creative demons within.
