Dark Secrets and Depraved Acts Drive The Effects Of Being Alone, Published by Outskirts Press
Austin, TX, September 09, 2010 --(PR.com)-- Outskirts Press, Inc. has published The Effects Of Being Alone by Clayton Jasper. The author's most recent book to date is a 6 x 9 paperback in the horror and fiction category and is available worldwide on book retailer websites such as Amazon and Barnes & Noble. The webpage at www.outskirtspress.com/effectsofbeingalone was launched simultaneously with the book's publication.
On the dark, wet streets of Seattle, a killer is stalking scores of seemingly random victims. Armed with a rare Russian knife, the Seattle Slasher operates with ruthless efficiency killing -- and skinning -- his prey, while leaving police little to go on. With a mounting casualty list, there appears to be no end in sight.
Eric Clinner is a hardworking technician at the Seattle morgue who sees firsthand the Seattle Slasher’s handiwork. After his beautiful wife had been robbed and killed two years earlier, Eric knows all too well the pain a murderer leaves behind; but this mild-mannered man of science also hides a dark secret. As the loneliness and sorrow caused by Amber’s death become too much, Eric finds himself increasingly driven to depraved acts, as if to test his ability to feel.
Eric’s compulsion has become the public’s top priority as a panic-stricken populace, desperate city officials, and paranoid governor all race against time to stop the next body bag. And all of it leads up to a shocking finale that has to be read to be believed.
A fast-paced, smart and savvy thriller, The Effects of Being Alone mixes lightning-sharp dialog, high-stakes medical drama and psychological intrigue for a book that will keep readers guessing right up until the very end.
142 pages in length, The Effects Of Being Alone is being aggressively promoted to appropriate markets with a focus on the horror and fiction category. With U.S. wholesale distribution through Ingram and Baker & Taylor, and pervasive online availability through Amazon, Barnes & Noble and elsewhere, The Effects Of Being Alone meets consumer demand through both retail and library markets with a suggested retail price of $14.95.
