Fatal Illusions By Adam Blumer




An obsessive woman, a serial killer on the loose, and a sudden winter storm turn a sabbatical in the North Woods into a nightmare that the Thayer family may not escape alive.
 
An amateur magician, an unassuming family . . . a fatal illusion Haydon Owens wants to be the next Houdini. He has been practicing his craft and has already made four women disappear. All it took was a bit of rope and his two bare hands. The Thayer family has come to the north woods of Newberry, Michigan, looking for refuge, a peaceful sanctuary from a shattered past. But they are not alone. Little do they know that they are about to become part of Haydon's next act. Time is running out and already the killer has spotted his next victim. Who will escape alive? “Fatal Illusions is an engaging, fast-paced read with a captivating storyline that grabs you from page one and doesn't let go. Highly recommended!”-Mark Mynheir, homicide detective and author of The Night Watchman “An awesome ride!”-Rosey Dow, Christy Award winning author of Reaping the Whirlwind “Adam Blumer tells a fast-paced story that weaves together a serial killer, a physically wounded pastor and his spiritually wounded wife. The twists and turns will keep readers guessing.”-Rick Acker, author of Blood Brothers Adam Blumer graduated from Bob Jones University with a degree in a print journalism. Since childhood he has been writing stories and has since been published in a variety of periodicals. He lives in Michigan with his wife and their two daughters.

  8. Thank you, Mary, for your kind review. I'm so glad you enjoyed "Fatal Illusions." The sequel, "The Tenth Plague," was released at the end of January as an e-book (for both Nook and Kindle). I'm working on a third novel now. The support is much appreciated! I'd be happy to donate a free e-book download of my second novel (for you to keep) if you would like to do an e-book giveaway of my second novel here at your blog.
