THE DEAD GAME
by
Susanne Leist
Linda moves to a small town to live a quiet life. She opens a bookstore and makes new friends. Life is simple – that is until the dead body washes up on shore.
Linda is horrified to find that dead bodies and disappearing tourists are common for this town. As soon as the sun sets, the residents are stalked by dark shadows.
But this is only the beginning.

Linda and her friends receive an unsigned invitation to a party at a deserted house. They are pursued through revolving rooms and dangerous traps, barely escaping with their lives. Two of their own remain trapped in the house. Or so they think.
They must embark on a difficult journey, chased by unnatural creatures, not knowing whom to trust, to uncover the one controlling the game and everyone else in town. Who are The Dead? Are they humans or vampires?
The Dead Game has begun.
Excerpt from
The Dead Game
“I’ll be back for you,” Wolf held her tight against his body and
whispered in her ear, “I love the way you stand up to me with your flashing
blue eyes. Soon you’ll be mine, my beautiful ice queen.”
Linda couldn’t move her body. She was stuck in some kind of trance…she
couldn’t leave; she didn’t want to leave if given the choice. His voice soothed
her and made her think of love, passion, and great need: a need that could only
be satisfied by him with his expert hands and mouth. She knew that one day she
was going to be with him, to be joined with him.His lowered his mouth onto hers and drew her into a swirling miasma of unexpected feelings and desires. His mouth fully covering hers introduced her to a new realm of pure pleasure. His powerful form enveloped her, making her feel feelings that were foreign and untried for her. She couldn’t get enough of him. She tentatively began touching his face and then his body with an eager and unrelenting hunger. She didn’t know what she needed, but she knew that she wanted and desired this beautiful man standing right before her. Her past life was washed out of her mind, never to be considered again. She begged him to take her with him tonight. In response, Wolf lifted her in his arms, as if she weighed nothing, and turned to leave the party. His beautiful face looked victorious and happy. His black eyes filled with passion. She hoped that it was because of her. Then he looked down into her small face and gave a hearty roar.
While Wolf carried her in his powerful arms, a dark shadow flew out of the house directly at them. Linda was knocked out of his arms, and Wolf was thrown across the patio.
