THE BOOK
PUBLISHER: Self-published | RELEASE DATE: June 2012 | BUY IT: Amazon UK / Amazon US
Welcome to the Nixon Healing and Research Center, playground for the maniacal Dr. Howard Nixon whose cancer research has him dabbling in the undead, and the women of Strandville disappearing. Unable to cure the lethal infection which turns its victims into mindless, flesh-hungry mob, Dr. Nixon discovers a medicinal use where the side-effects may be worse than terminal cancer.
Desperate for a fresh start after her painful divorce and the stillbirth of her first child, Miranda Penton accepts an unexpected job offer to join Nixon’s security team but her recruitment is no coincidence. She holds the genetic key to Nixon’s cure. Nixon inseminates Miranda with a zombie fetus and holds her hostage, but her imprisonment is short-lived. A rescue team of locals led by her estranged ex-husband releases not only Miranda, but the infection on an unsuspecting hospital population. Miranda wrestles with the uncertain outcome of her pregnancy while trying to get away with her life.
The virus is spreading and must be contained. The center is going into lock-down. The group’s get away is threatened by a homicidal security guard and a raging storm. The town of Strandville is ground zero for the zombie apocalypse and Miranda must escape because the fate of humanity lies with her unborn child. In Strandville, there are worse fates than becoming undead.
“Creepy and claustrophobic, with enough gore to please any zombie-phile, Frisch’s book begins promisingly. Her omniscient narrator takes particular joy in the visceral details of horror, tweaking the reader’s senses with a bevy of bodily fluids and dismembered limbs.” -Kirkus Reviews

The Exorcist movies still give me chills, well the first and third do any way. The sequel was too bad for words. And I like the TV show Paranormal Witness on SyFy.

I have a new favorite horror movie and that’s Sinister. It was SO good! I also loved Insidious and the Paranormal Activity films. My favorite horror TV show is The Walking Dead, of course!
Thanks for the chance!
