Overview

“Some folks treated the past like an old friend. The memories warmed them with fondness for what was, and hope for what was to come. Not me. When I thought of long ago, my insides curdled, and I was left feeling sour and wasted.”

Jenny Schmidt is a young woman with old heartaches. A small town Texas girl with big city attitude, she just doesn’t fit in. Not that she has ever tried.

Life has pummeled her heart into one big, lonely callus. She has no siblings, both parents were dead by sixteen, and her last grandparent—and caretaker—was in the ground before she turned twenty-one. She’s the last living member of her immediate family. Or so she thinks…

“We found my ‘grandfather’ sitting at his dining room table. An entire scorched pot of coffee dangled from his shaky hand. His skin was the ashen gray shade of thunderclouds, not the rich mocha from the photo I’d seen. There were dark blue circles under each swollen red eye. A halo of white hair skirted his bald head, a crown of tangles and mats. Corpses had more life in them.”

Suddenly, instead of burying it with the dead, Jenny is forced to confront the past. Armed only with an ancient family journal, her rifle, and an Apache tomahawk, she must save her grandfather’s life and embrace her dangerous heritage. Or be devoured by it.

Blood Fugue is the first of the Moonsongs Books, a series of New Adult paranormal-action novelettes by author E.J. Wesley.

Editorial Reviews

Missy's Reads & Reviews Blog - Missy B.
"The writing is amazing - even in just a few short pages, you can see that right off the bat. It really engages you in the story and keeps you reading along until the end. Jenny, the protagonist, is written amazingly well. She's a tough chick, very passionate and also surprisingly very funny. I loved her attitude and the way that she presented herself."
Goodreads - Alex Cavanaugh, Bestselling Author of CassaFire
"...a tense story with some unique elements--A very good read!"
Candace's Book Blog - Candace R.
"The characters are fantastic. I love characters with a bit of OOMPH and Jenny was definitely a character with OOMPH. She has a purple mohawk (AWESOME!) and is a big gamer ... she's also totally kick ass--"
Books and Things Blog - Aimee K.
"While the stories are short they don’t lack in substance and I hope the next book will be out soon, maybe even a full length novel???(hint! hint!)"
Fic Fare Blog - Jaime A.
"E.J. Wesley shoves you into a world where things aren't as they might seem and he does it with a wonderful protagonist named Jenny. She's tough and filled with passion and doesn't apologize for anything."

Meet the Author

E.J. Wesley holds degrees in psychology and counseling, but he'd rather write about make-believe people than study the real ones. He is passionate about family, video games, music, movies, art, and--of course--books. The author currently resides in Texas, and maintains a very neighborly attitude.
