The Bridegroom

When Valentine was born, no one celebrated. No cigars were distributed, and no pats on the back were given. But a hasty phone call was placed, and a promise was made.

Now, as her eighteenth birthday approaches, Valentine's small world of solitude and unhappiness begins to unravel--just as a powerful, catastrophic plague of death, fire, and ice sweeps across the country.

He is coming.

The Bridegroom is an atmospheric story of first contact and identity, and it is the first annual Halloween Tale published by Book Smugglers Publishing.
