Dead Mann Talking
Heads up Zombie & Detective fans! From 9/4 through 11/4 (that's 60 days, for you math majors) I'll be tweeting a quote a day via @SPetrucha from my upcoming zombie noir from Roc Books, Dead Mann Walking.
This is a crass effort at publicity, so if you see one that tickles your desiccated fancy or decaying rib, please share and spread the word! Here’s what folks are already saying about Dead Mann Walking:
“Petrucha gets Hessius Mann, zombie PI, off to a promising start in this tale of murder and the undead…” Publishers Weekly
"Dead Mann Walking is an example of what good things can happen when you don't play by the 'rules'…” Dave Wellington, author of Monster Island
JUST BECAUSE YOU'RE DEAD
DOESN'T MEAN YOU CAN'T HAVE A LIFE...
- After Hessius Mann was convicted of his wife's murder, suppressed evidence came to light and the verdict was overturned — too bad he was already executed.
- Thanks to the miracles of modern science Hessius was brought back to life. Sort of. Now that he's joined the ranks of Fort Hammer's pulse-challenged population, Hessius attempts to make a “living” as a private investigator.
- But when a missing persons case leads to a few zombies cut to pieces, Hessius starts thinking that someone's giving him the run-around — and it's not like he's in any condition to make a quick getaway...
- FIRST IN A NEW SERIES.
- WARNING! Not a YA or Tween book - 18 and up!
