Blood Sins
by Kay HooperSome sins can’t be forgiven… because some sins no one survives. New York Timesbestselling author Kay Hooper has touched our darkest fears but none so dark as in her latest thriller. Here’s a psychopath who lures his victims with a promise no one can resist…and demands a price no one would knowingly pay. Young, vulnerable, attractive, Tessa Gray made the perfect victim. Which was why Noah Bishop of the FBI’s Special Crimes Unit recruited her to play the role of grieving widow. As the supposed new owner of property coveted by the Church of the Everlasting Sin, she’d be irresistible bait for the reclusive and charismatic Reverend Samuel. His fortified compound in the mountains near Grace, North Carolina, had been the last known residence of two women murdered in ways that defied scientific explanation. Though hardly as naive or as vulnerable as she appears, Tessa knows she has a lot to learn about using her unique gift. She also knows that Bishop and the SCU have to be desperate to rely on an untried psychic agent in an undercover operation so dangerous. And desperate they are. For the killer they’re hunting is the most terrifying they’ve ever faced and shakes even the most seasoned agents: a soulless megalomaniacal cult leader who can use their own weapons, talents, and tactics against them. By entering the cult’s well-guarded compound, Tessa will be exposing herself to the dark magnetism of a psychopath on an apocalyptic crusade of terror that spares no one, not even the youngest victims. And Samuel has protected himself within a fanatically loyal congregation, many of whom occupy surprising positions of power within the community. Even Grace’s chief of police, Sawyer Cavenaugh—a man Tessa will have to trust with her life—may be unable to protect her. Because no one, not even Tessa herself, can guarantee she’s strong enough to resist—or powerful enough to battle—a killer who’s less than human.

With a vision that differs from the norm set by society at the time, Beatrice is eager to forge a career as a poetry writer, and determined to leave constraints behind in her native country of Denmark. The idyllic setting of Paris becomes more personal when she meets one of the Eiffel project's investors: Count Francis Yannic; a man shrouded with an aura of mystery that captivates the attention of all who know him. A politician skilled in diplomacy, he is able to convince one to think his way with just a gleam of his sapphire-like blue eyes. After allowing herself to be seduced by his charms and facing the fear of expressing her true way of thinking to her father, Beatrice escapes with Yannic to a place where she will discover that some mysteries hide not entirely good intentions; she will also understand that parental overprotection and suspicion, while seemingly unjustified, are more often than not accurate hunches. This is a journey that will take us to the heart of 1884 Paris, where a girl tries to make understood at home the value of autonomy and of women, in a society opposed to accept the importance of these things; a tale of individual thinking and how it is able to change the world in the blink of an eye. Revenge and romance mingle with a touch of supernatural mysticism to endow Blood Slave with a charming aura, with characters and places that will always have a secret to hide.
