Painter of the Damned

A soul mate trapped in purgatory.

Dangerous alliances.

The quest for ultimate power.

FINALIST - AMERICAN WRITING AWARDS

BOOKSHELF AWARD NOMINEE - THE WRITERS LOUNGE

After escaping Venice with their lives, Nick & Julia O'Connor have one goal: return home so they can end their nightmare vacation. But before they reach the American consulate, they're captured by Interpol and returned to Venice.

Behind Nick's detention is Salvatore della Porta, the corrupt head of an ancient, enigmatic order that controls Paradise, Tintoretto's Renaissance masterpiece that's also a purgatory for thousands of souls-including Nick's soul mate from the 16th century.

Della Porta believes Nick's previous life knows the location of a book lost to the ages. This mysterious manuscript will bring him world-changing power-or topple the order.

As Nick's link to the past consumes him, it's up to Julia to save her husband and crush della Porta. But with friends in short supply, she must enlist Carlo Zuccaro, unaware the young artist is the order's new Painter and warden of the damned.

"...a genre-bending masterwork."

- David L. Robbins, New York Times bestselling author of The Devil's Waters and Isaac's Beacon

"You will want to read Painter of the Damned. Period!"

- Yasmin Angoe, bestselling author of Her Name is Knight

"...an uncommonly intelligent, shrewd and deftly paced thriller..."

- Gary McAvoy, bestselling author of The Magdalene Chronicles

"A truly unique thriller blending elements of mystery, suspense and loads of action, Painter of the Damned takes readers on a journey unlike any other."

- Andrew Clawson, author of The Arthurian Relic and the Harry Fox series

"Impossible to predict and equally impossible to put down..."

- Jane Thornley, bestselling author of The Agency of the Ancient Lost & Found historical mystery thriller series
