From the bestselling author of Widow's Row and CoverBoys & Curses, comes Evil Cries. Author endorsed by the late Master of Suspense, Sidney Sheldon. He prays for prey. His prayers have just been answered. Lauren Visconti loses everyone she loves. They don't walk out the door. They die. The Lauren Visconti Curse. Her in-your-face magazine, CoverBoy, might have crossed a few lines. Now it appeared the curse had morphed. Now anyone Lauren had any emotion toward, good or bad, was doomed to be slaughtered. Success came with the magazine's dichotomy-photos of almost naked men, juxtaposed-serious investigative reporting between them. Her articles ran true stories. Most readers had heard of sex-slave trafficking. Most didn't know it occurred in their own backyards. Some readers knew about podiatry mutilations-the hacking off of elongated second toes and even the total amputation of little toes, all in order to fit into the expensive designer shoes. Very few had heard about re-virgination. CoverBoy's articles named names. The Obeah Voodoo scared Lauren. But could it help save her? More likely any help would come from the handsome psychologist. This is what Lauren had to believe.
