Book excerpt: Sorceress of psychological suspense, Ninie Hammon brings you The Last Safe Place — a psychological roller-coaster ride of a book that you won’t want to put down before you hit the final page. Her stalker. Her demon. Her creation... Gabriella thinks nothing of the dark creature she fashioned at the heart of her new horror novel—until it turns up at a book signing. At first, she laughs off the deranged fan with the pretty face who informs her that he is the true king of demons. But she doesn't laugh long. Soon enough, Gabriella is in a desperate race to save her family from a stalker with limitless resources and a zealot's resolve to fulfill the promise of her book, right down to its gruesome conclusion. Her only refuge is an old family hideaway high in the mountains. But the cabin isn't the safe place she imagines. It harbors secrets of its own. Secrets at the heart of the evil pursuing her. Secrets her family has long buried. Secrets she must unravel before all their lives collide in a final, apocalyptic celebration of one man's madness.

I've never read books by this author before, but have now purchased two more of her books that are presently awaiting my attention. Enjoy!" -- debbie ★★★★★ “Gripping from page one. The story grabs you and takes you on an exhilarating thrill of a ride. The monster from the pages of fiction come to life to haunt the writer, by showing up in her life and menacing her and her family...

Book excerpt: An extortion letter arrives at Crystal Waters, one of Chicago's wealthiest gated communities. It makes no specific threats, gives no instructions, demands only that $50,000 be gotten ready---chump change for an enclave where the cheapest house is worth three million. It's easy to see it as harmless---a note from a nut. Then a mansion explodes. The homeowners panic, and want it hushed up. If word gets out that a bomber is targeting Crystal Waters, their multimillion-dollar homes will become worthless, a last catastrophe for people strung out from living the good life too well. They hire Dek Elstrom to investigate. Dek Elstrom used to soar high, too, when he lived with his multimillionaire wife at Crystal Waters, but that was before the dominos of his life tipped over and his ex-wife threw him out. Now reduced to living in a crumbling stone turret, bankrupt of everything but attitude, he's not even his own ideal choice for the job. He's too broke, however, to question the motives of a gift-horse client. He needs the money---and the chance to reconnect with his ex-wife. Another bomb goes off, and Dek realizes the culprit must be someone who is angry, needs money, and used to live at Crystal Waters. Then he realizes something else. He himself is the prime suspect. A sly and clever caper among the richest of the rich, A Safe Place for Dying is for fans of Carl Hiaasen and Robert Crais.
