About this eBook
What if the one you call isn't the one who comes?
When Fortune accepts a housesitting job in brownstone Brooklyn, she becomes embroiled in the building’s grisly history that ensnares the residents and lures back a serial killer with supernatural connections.
Patsy, the apartment’s owner, is keeping secrets. The apartment also has its own secrets that not even Patsy suspects, revolving around the ex-priest who lived there after a failed exorcism. Both Patsy and the former Father Guenther Ives have invited forces that are not what they think. Soon, Fortune is forced to confront both Father Ives and a larger, nonhuman evil.

About the author
Carrie Vaccaro Nelkin was born in Italy, grew up just outside New York City, and lived in a couple of spooky Brooklyn brownstones before moving to a life where she made her own excitement. She works as an editor in technical publishing and has belonged for more than 20 years to a writing group called The Penheads. Her short fiction has appeared in Rose Red Review, Fiction Vortex, Bards and Sages Quarterly, Absent Willow Review, the anthology Skulls & Crossbones: Tales of Women Pirates, and The Penheads’ own anthology Hunger: Stories of Desire, Discovery, and Dissatisfaction. Some of Carrie’s poetry has been published in Shadow Road Quarterly, Rose & Thorn Journal, Golden Sparrow Literary Review (which nominated her for a 2011 Pushcart Prize), and Piedmont Literary Review. She lives with her husband, a perceptive cat, and a dog with multiple personalities (and voices). You can find her at www.cvnelkin.com and on Twitter at @cvnelkin.
