    Lake of Sins: Escape: Lake Of Sins, #1

    Every year after harvest the weakest are removed from the encampment. None of them are ever seen or heard from again.   Trinity's only hope of escape lies in the forest. She's not afraid of the creatures that live there. There's nothing bigger than foxes in those woods, except this time something is different.   This time she's hunted from land and sea by predators that should only exist in legends. Surrounded by three enemies. Surrender is her only option, but which one should she choose?   A captivating dystopian read filled with human-animal hybrids and creatures you've never even imagined.   Author Interview Q. – Why should someone read the Lake of Sins series?   If you're looking for your typical dystopian, post-apocalyptic, survival thriller then you should look somewhere else. This story has been described as a one-of-a-kind world created in a unique dystopian society.   The characters in the series are human-animal hybrids—genetic mutations or evil experiments, is yet to be revealed. It's an entire new species of characters who don't fit in the typical genre categories of vampire, werewolf, witch, fairies or even angels and demons.   The world of the Lake of Sins is segregated by class with the humans ruling supreme. In book one, Escape, Trinity unwittingly sets off a collision between the classes when she flees into the forest to find and free her friend only to discover the horrible fate of her kind.   The books are fast paced with adventure and mutated creatures around every corner. There are legends that are truth and societal truths that are well guarded lies. All-in-all, it's a unique and exciting read and you should give it a try. I think you'll love it.   The Chimera Chronicles series also takes place in the world of the Lake of Sins. These stories are prequels, explaining how some of the characters, who you meet in the Lake of Sins series, became monsters.   Q. – Who should read the Lake of Sins series? Although there's a strong, female lead in Lake of Sins, the audience for both series is broad. I have fans (male and female) aged ten through eighty. Anyone who likes gory thrillers that are dark, a little disturbing and packed with action will enjoy these books.   However, a word of caution is in order. These books are not for the squeamish. Some scenes are bloody and violent almost falling into the horror genre, but the interactions between the characters are funny, poignant and loving (and a love triangle develops as the stories progress). Still, I wouldn't recommend these books to anyone under thirteen without the parents reading the books first.

    The disturbing and yet exciting sequel to Lake of Sins: Escape. Having discovered the horrible fate of her kind, Trinity has left her family behind and is fleeing from the Almightys. Her friends have promised to help her, but they don't know that her blood holds a secret that some in power want revealed and others want destroyed. Hugh Truent, an Almighty, learns that Trinity is a product of the mating of two different classes which is impossible, but if it's true, it's the discovery of a lifetime. He must catch her before she is destroyed, but someone will stop at nothing to ensure he fails, putting his life and the lives of those he loves in danger.   If you like mysterious worlds, action, human-animal hybrids who must work together to survive dystopian worlds then you'll love this science fiction/fantasy story about genetic engineering on an epic scale.   Interview with the AuthorQ. – So, why should someone read the Lake of Sins series? Well, because it's great (smiles). However, if you're looking for your typical dystopian, post-apocalyptic, survival thriller then you should look somewhere else.

The world of the Lake of Sins is segregated by class with the humans ruling supreme. In book one, Escape, Trinity, a sixteen-year-old Producer (the lowest of the classes), unwittingly sets off a collision between the classes when she flees into the forest to discover the fate of the teenagers who are removed from camp every year after harvest. Some say they are taken to another camp to keep bloodlines strong. Others say they are tortured. No one knows and Trinity is determined to find out, but what she doesn't expect is to be hunted by mutant creatures and predators long thought to be extinct.

    A rebellion is brewing in the world of the Lake of Sins while Hugh Truent sits in prison days away from his execution. After taking his findings about the genetic similarities between the classes to the Supreme Almighty and the Council, Hugh had been arrested for treason and all his evidence had vanished as if made from smoke. To protect his family, he cut off all contact with the outside world while he sat in prison for over four years waiting for his execution. He has no idea that some of his reports were leaked to the other classes and that civil war looms on the horizon. Trinity and her friends have no hope of winning the war unless they can unite the classes. In order to do that, they need someone everyone will follow. They need the one person all the classes trust and believe in. They need Hugh. That means they have to break him out of a maximum-security prison and convince him to lead their army, but that won't be easy because Hugh wants revenge and he's not going to let anything get in his way especially mouthy, attractive, know-it-all Trinity.   The action-packed dystopian, science fiction, fantasy series continues with more fights, more secrets about genetic engineering and more laughs.

    War is coming to the forests of the Lake of Sins. Hugh has to figure out how to win this war when there are dangers everywhere—the River-Men, the Protective Services, the Brush-Men, Cold Creepers (just to name a few). Plus, he's going to have to break his word to Trinity or Meesus, maybe both, and that'll go over about as well as a hungry Tracker in a kindergarten class. Trinity is tired of Hugh not including her in his war sessions. She's an asset to the Allied Classes and he needs to realize that, but before she confronts him she must choose between her attraction to Hugh and her feelings for Jethro. Hopefully, she can do that before hurting either of them and before her big heart gets her in trouble as Mirra predicted. Jethro is changing. He's now travelling with the Protective Services and it's like he was born to live in the forest—to hunt, to chase, to kill. As the wild in his blood grows stronger, he's torn between what he was raised to believe and his growing desire for Trinity. After each battle, he wants to mate and the person he wants to mate with is Trinity. When his blood is roaring through his body, it doesn't matter that she isn't an Almighty. It doesn't matter that interclass relations are wrong. All that matters is that he possess her. As the hunt for the Allied Classes heats up, battles between the Protective Services and the forest predators spiral out of control, pushing Jethro to the edge of his humanity.   More battles and more betrayals in book four of the dystopian, genetic engineering fantasy series.

    The War will end. Choices will be made. Secrets will be revealed. And whispers from the past will cloud the present and shape the future.   Jethro wants one thing—revenge. Trinity must pay for her betrayal. His body screams for what she denied him and his blood roars to possess her. She was born in his camps. She belongs to him, body and soul, and nothing will stop him from capturing her.   Uncovered atrocities at the lab send Hugh fleeing from the estate and into the nightmare of all that has happened while he's been away. While searching for Trinity he discovers powerful secrets from the past and is given a prophecy that will guide his future.   Trinity has lost the boy of her dreams and the man of her future. She must fight to win not only the war but the life she deserves with the man she wants.   In this gripping continuation of the dystopian Lake of Sins series, the war does end and secrets from the earlier books are revealed, while more gruesome discoveries are unveiled. So get comfortable because this action-packed science fiction and fantasy adventure will keep you turning the pages.

L. S. O'Dea

L. S. O’Dea sees things a bit differently than most people. This is probably a bi-product of being the youngest of seven children in a time when TV was only worth watching in the evenings or Saturday mornings and there were no computers. Back then, kids had to amuse themselves and being five years younger than her closest sibling she was often the unwilling entertainment.One day, before she started kindergarten, she really wanted to learn how to spell her name (Linda Sue). Her mother was busy so her brothers were told to help their baby sister. When they were done, she raced into the kitchen to show her mother what she’d learned. She stood tall and recited the letters of her name. L-E-M-O-N H-E-A-D.To this day, she still receives a box of Lemonhead candy every year for Christmas.
