Lethal Symmetries

About Lethal Symmetries

When a book collector buys an ancient diary, he has no idea that it contains a dark and macabre story... In 1861, Dr William Tomberton receives an urgent call from his old friend Police Inspector Evans. Lord Carmichael is dead - murdered in a way no one can understand. They examine the man's corpse - there are no signs of an assault, but the body has been hideously changed. Tomberton and Evans go to the Carmichael mansion, which remains as silent as a grave. No one has seen Lady Carmichael or the house staff. Two policemen who ventured inside never returned. There is no choice but to assemble a small team and investigate the building... In Carmichael's home, Tomberton, Evans and their two companions find more victims transformed to death by a malignant force. What kind of entity can have the power to restructure every part of a person, from their clothing and outside appearance... to all their internal organs? An awful brooding atmosphere fills the mansion - and the four investigators continue in dread of the abhorrent, lurking slayer. Also, the sight of what has happened to the mirrors almost shatters their courage. What is the entity inside the Carmichael mansion? How was it unleashed upon the household? How do the murders in 1861 relate to events in 1502... and to the genius Leonardo da Vinci? As the investigation turns into a seemingly hopeless battle for survival, Tomberton and Evans find normal weapons are useless against their enemy. Is there any way to stop the lethal symmetries? Reviews from this author's horror releases: "...thoroughly spooky, enticing and well written from start to finish." "...great... I could feel the fear..." "...shows true mastery of the short horror story... a wildly imaginative antagonist unlike anything I've read before... a quick, captivating read full of horror and thrills. The tense action and suspense of Glancing Blow make it incredibly hard to put down..." (Glancing Blow - Short Horror Tales #1) "...When the blood starts to splatter, Nigel's day gets really rough. Thompson has devised a brilliantly brutal creature to sic on his leading man. Creative and twisted, the monster is a total terror... Hooker is an absolutely insane, blood-pumping ride... With a wicked cool monster and a page-turning climax, this is one Creature Feature you won't want to miss out on..." (Hooker - Short Horror Tales #2) "Great short story..." (Ignition Source - Short Horror Tales #4) "...well-written, descriptive and enthralling page-turner, that's not for the faint-hearted... The twists and turns kept me on the edge of my seat..." (God Of War) "...extremely well written and very dark. The author did a great job of creating a palpable sense of doom that surrounds the main character from the beginning, and then creating more tension and horror as the story went on..." (Into The Hole)
