MY FRIDAY 56

“Everyone stand back!” a doctor ordered, placing the defibrillator paddles on the chest.

Jack saw the body give a jolt as the paddles discharged, and saw the line shoot up on the monitor, then sink back to baseline. Still in V fib.

MY BOOK BEGINNINGS

He was gliding on the edge of the abyss.

Below him yawned the watery blackness of a frigid underworld, where the sun had never penetrated, where the only light was the fleeting spark of a bioluminescent creature.

GOODREADS SYNOPSIS

Chosen to conduct a three-month series of NASA experiments with single-cell organisms called Archaeons, Dr. Emma McCallum soon discovers the terrifying nature of these organisms and must race against time to stop a deadly disease that could threaten the entire world.

    • I love them both too. The one I have because the colors jump out and grab me. The first one because who doesn’t love a dead body. LOL

  1. If S.K. likes her, then I should definitely give her a read! LOVE S.K!! Love horror too! 🙂
    Happy weekend! I added you to the Linky!

    • Thanks Freda. Been out of town and just got back today. Thought I would have some free time, but just couldn’t pull myself off the beach!

    • I love the colors on the one I have, but that dead body keeps drawing me in on the first cover. Thanks for dropping by and be coming your way SOON.
