Book excerpt: FBI agent Amelia Larson solves impossible cases with her psychic abilities. She always gets the bad guy—until she’s assigned a Dracula copycat case that bites back. The killer drags her into a mysterious underworld where, not every serial killer is human, not every case can be solved, and not everyone can survive. Standalone novel. No cliffhanger. What readers say about Rare Stakes: "Her writing style is unique and fast paced. Very easy to get lost in the world." "I was drawn into the characters, and I couldn't help but like them. I really liked that the heroine wasn't too stupid to live! A nice bit of world building." EXCERPT The most innocent things could hold more darkness than I ever wanted to see. Today's example: Takeout. What could be so terrible about takeout? Normally, it was awesome. I lived on the stuff. I read the menus like the bible. But this wasn't that kind of takeout. I stared at the Styrofoam containers on the table. My stomach was already cringing, looking for a place to hide. The containers gleamed virgin white under the fluorescent lights of the FBI conference room, but their contents were not quite so pure. Each carton had a handwritten label on top. One read, Marion—bright and charming. Another read Stacey—good body. The last, Eileen—agreeable. The writing was large with strong vertical strokes and half-closed loops. I wondered what a handwriting analyst would make of it. Was there a particular flourish that indicated someone was a cannibal?
