Horror author Russell R. James is back with DEMON DAGGER (August 16, 2022; Flame Tree Press), a fast-paced, chilling tale of darkness and vengeance for fans of the TV series ‘Supernatural’, as well as readers who love Stephen King, Dean Koontz and Chuck Wendig. LA County Sheriff's Deputy Drew Price has a gift, or perhaps… a curse. When a demon possesses a person, Drew can see the horrific-looking demon that dwells within. This ability has made him a demon hunter, armed with the one weapon that can send these fiends back to Hell; the demon dagger. One demon named Nicobar sets its sights on punishing the hunter by taking the soul of Drew’s son, condemning the boy to life as a psychopath. DEMON DAGGER follows Drew’s attempts to save his son’s soul and then use the blade to end Nicobar’s time on Earth.Russell R.
