Second Chance: After suffering a career-ending injury on the mat, a former high school wrestling prodigy is desperate to win back his abusive father’s acceptance via his father’s love for slasher films. How will he do it? By becoming a real-life “slasher” himself, of course.

Worm: While on vacation in Mexico, a young woman frantic to lose weight ingests something she was told is a “harmless” tapeworm. A tapeworm is anything but harmless, though soon after ingesting it, she will wish it was only a tapeworm.

Paying it Forward: On Easter weekend, a young couple decides to pay it forward by paying for a lonely man’s meal in a Chinese restaurant. They’ll soon learn, in horrific fashion, that kindness does not always beget kindness.

Vengeance is therapy.

Caleb Lambert kills people for a living. The money is nice, but it comes a distant second to his primary reason for choosing such a vocation: Caleb often calls it “scratching an itch.”

Here’s the thing, though: Caleb won’t just accept any contract. He and his team thoroughly vet each and every prospective mark to make sure they deserve to be punished.

And why not? If anyone knows about true evil in this world, it’s Caleb Lambert. Along with his family, Caleb endured hell at the hands of multiple serial killers throughout his childhood, twisting his young mind into the mess it is today. Forever installed that need to “scratch an itch.”

And Caleb is frequently itchy, and business is good. But when a new job comes across his desk, Caleb’s entire world is turned upside down. The job appears to hold so many similarities to his past that he finds it all but impossible to turn down. An impulsive decision that could cost him dearly.

What readers are saying about Jeff Menapace and Caleb:

★★★★★ “Think of a mix between Dexter and John Wick and that’s Caleb. You can’t help but love him.”

★★★★★ “If you like Jack Reacher (Lee Child), then you must read Caleb."

★★★★★ "This is some excellent writing and storytelling. I cared about Caleb. A lot. This is a white knuckle thriller with heart. Who knows: Caleb may become the new Jack Reacher. I certainly hope so. Highly recommended.”

★★★★★ “Action packed and page turning, this book is a blast. Hints of John Wick are plastered across the pages but Caleb makes this story his own.”

★★★★★ “Without spoilers, I will just say that if you liked John Wick and Dexter Morgan, you will enjoy this fast-paced thriller!”

★★★★★ “This book was so action packed that I read it in one sitting. The characters were fun and engaging, the pacing was perfect. I can’t wait for another Caleb book!”

★★★★★ "Couldn’t put it down. Caleb is my kind of violent hero."

★★★★★ "This was the best book I’ve read in a while. A real suspenseful page turner for sure. Caleb was so likable but scary at the same time. A must read. You won’t regret it.”

I hope you enjoy Caleb, my friends. This novel is ideal for fans of suspense and thriller authors who provide us with the action-packed, the sometimes dark and violent, and the heart-racing intrigue that keeps us turning pages into the wee hours of the morning.

$2.99

From the bestselling author of the Bad Games and Wildlife series comes a chilling new novel of supernatural horror and suspense.

Highland Elementary has a dark and disturbing past—so disturbing that locals ultimately burned the school to the ground.

Years later, Pinewood Elementary is the future, and for new teacher Ryan Herb, a chance at a fresh start. But the townspeople don’t believe that rebuilding the school and changing its name is enough. They believe that whatever evil inhabited the halls of Highland still dwells in Pinewood.

Ryan is a realist and isn’t the type to be affected by local lore. But when Ryan begins to experience horrifying visions of past tragedies, he starts to question his own beliefs. Something in the school is reaching out to Ryan for help, a potentially lethal request as something else—or someone else?—in the school is keen on keeping the evil therein very much alive.

Can a skeptical Ryan unearth the origins of the evil’s true source and put an end to it? Or will he, like many before him, become a permanent resident of the school himself?

Rife with supernatural terror and intrigue, Dark Halls blurs the lines between horror and mystery—a whodunit that, when solved, proposes the even greater question of: how do you stop it?

Bad Games: The Complete Series (Books 1-5) Jul 19, 2019

by Jeff Menapace

( 273 )

$9.99

**You asked for it, it's here. All five books in the critically acclaimed Bad Games series under one terrifying roof.**

Bad Games: The Complete Series includes:

BAD GAMES - The terrifying bestseller that started it all. The Lambert Family is heading to Crescent Lake, a rural cabin community in western Pennsylvania, for an idyllic weekend getaway. Some fishing, some barbecue, some games...

The Fannelli brothers are heading to Crescent Lake too. Some stalking, some kidnapping, some murder, definitely some games...though not necessarily the type of games the Lamberts had in mind. But it doesn't matter. The Lamberts are going to play whether they like it or not.

VENGEFUL GAMES - The Lambert family played the Fannelli brothers' twisted game and survived. Showed the brothers they'd messed with the wrong family.

However, the game is far from over. There are some new players in town. Players who have close ties to the Fannelli brothers. Players who are taking things very personally...and promising results that are very deadly.

BAD GAMES: HELLBENT - A year has passed. Marine and security specialist Domino Taylor shadows the Lambert family, the guilt he feels for the tragic events that unfolded in western Pennsylvania haunting him without mercy.

When someone from Domino's past contacts him, begging for his help, Domino reluctantly agrees, not knowing the sinister truth lying in wait: there is one final game yet to play.

BAD GAMES: MALEVOLENT - After years of silence, the game is back on. Widower Allan Brown is hosting a support group in his home for the bereaved. One of the guests in attendance will be Amy Lambert, this week marking the five-year anniversary of her family’s horrifying ordeal at Crescent Lake.

Of course it’s hardly cause for celebration. Still, some unwanted guests plan on attending the support group to help Amy celebrate all the same...

BAD GAMES: PSYCHOPATH - A decade has passed. Caleb’s increasingly violent temper sees him discharged from the Marine Corps. Carrie is failing at her second attempt at college. Aftermath, it would seem, plays the cruelest game of all.

The only plus is Amy Lambert's success as a bestselling author, chronicling her family’s horrific ordeals over the years. But is it a success? It has brought some unwanted attention Amy’s way. Two fledgling killers who happen to idolize the late and infamous serial killers Arty and Jim Fannelli have been paying attention—and these two killers are eager to show the Lamberts just how much they truly admire their idols…with the help of Arty and Jim themselves?

Find out how such a horrifying prospect comes to fruition in the fifth and final book in the Bad Games series, and prepare yourself for the game to end all games.

What readers are saying about Jeff Menapace and the Bad Games series:

★★★★★ "I have been a lifetime reader of Dean Koontz, Stephen King, James Patterson, Lisa Gardner, and various other suspense and horror authors...I have found a new author to add to my list of greats."
