The Mole People Beneath The City

by Evans Light

The Mole People Beneath the City

goodreads-badge-add-plus

Late at night in the subway, a little girl and her father wait for a train that runs deep beneath New York City. It will be a ride they never forget.

“The 50th Street Station was practically empty, a rare event in New York City any time of year. It made me uneasy.

I pulled my daughter closer to me. You have to be careful with those you cherish, especially in a city this big.

Sometimes it eats people.”

After he lost his wife, all he has in the world is his Baby Kat. He won’t let anything happen to her.

As they wait for the train, the man observes a group of young people. It looks like they’ve been clubbing and the young men are drunk and rowdy, showing off for the ladies. The only other person there is an old Chinese woman. She waits patiently, clutching some crumpled newspapers in her claw like hands.

This group of people are in for the ride of their lives. They are about to enter…. The Twilight Zone. Sorry I couldn’t resist that!

But really, they will be wishing they were watching the show.

When Evans describes the trains imminent arrival, I swear I felt the cool breeze pushed in front of the train and the rumble of its approach under my feet.

And just as the train arrives…

In the flash of the trains lights Baby Kat sees something.

“I saw them Daddy, I saw them. In the tunnel,” she cried.

“Saw what?”

People, Daddy, there were people in there. I saw them, down in the tunnel on the tracks,” she whimpered. “It’s the mole people coming for us….”

I swear I felt like I was watching the movie. Evans writes classic horror so well, you’ll be reaching for the popcorn.

       

I gave this story Five Stars because Evans writes horror just the way I like it.

I’ve read several of Evans Light’s stories and they were scary good. I love his writing and am currently working my way through more.

If you like classic horror and short stories, you’ll want to get this. I’ve never met a book by Evans that I didn’t like.

He is the proud father of fine sons and the lucky husband of a beautiful wife.

Evans Light has been in love with the written word from an early age, and works in a wide variety of genres, including horror, thrillers, sci-fi and humor – but stories of the “Weird Tales” variety still remain his favorite.

Release Event Grave Bound 2

Welcome to my stop on the Release Event for Grave Bound organized by AToMR Tours .

Lets celebrate T.R. Graves’ brand new release.

For today, I have the beautiful book cover, the book description, an enticing excerpt and two giveaways!

Sounds like fun, so let’s get started.

GRAVE BOUND

goodreads-badge-add-plus

Title: Grave Bound (Secrets, #1)

Author: T. R. Graves

Release date: March 1, 2013

Genre:  Adult Contemporary

Age Group:  Adult  (17+ – profanity and sexual situations)

Event organized by: AToMR Tours

Buy Links:  Amazon  ~  Barnes & Noble

Book Description:

Some secrets follow you to the grave. Others send you there.

Emily Riddle has lived her entire life inside a patriarchal commune led by her father. There are many rules, but the most important one, ‘keep it in the commune’, is the most difficult for her to follow… especially since the only people willing to champion her cause live on the outside.

When Emily learns her father has promised her to Lorenzo, a perverted man who has plans for her that extend well beyond marriage and kids, she rebels. Regardless of the consequences, she refuses to marry someone who’d rather beat her than caress her.

A day of hooky that starts out as a tiny act of defiance – sneaking out of the commune for a swim – turns into a day filled with hope. After spending time with Levi, a man camping near the lake, she finds what true romance looks like and catches a glimpse into a future that’s filled with love and admiration rather than hate and submission.

That tiny peek is enough to change the course of Emily’s existence and makes it nearly impossible for her to go back to the commune and pretend she’ll ever be able to tolerate the life chosen for her instead of the life she longs for. One that includes Levi.

Fighting to escape the commune, its leaders, and her fiancé proves to be more dangerous than Emily expected. The secrets she knows, as the leader’s daughter, will either follow her to the grave or send her – and Levi – there.

Enjoy this excerpt

Levi

God dammit!

I fling the sleeping bag off. Then, I snatch the tent’s zipper open and run as fast as I can toward the forest in the same direction Emily went earlier. I have no idea where the fence’s hole is or the exact location of her house, but I’m determined to find it and her.

Emily

I hear Levi as he jerks the tent flap open, the twigs breaking under the weight of his all-out run, and his breath as it comes faster and faster. He meant what he said earlier, and he’s running to save me.

“Em… there’s no way for me to get there quick enough… I want you to tuck my cellphone… somewhere no one will know about it… I want to hear what’s going on… Do you understand me?” he says between breaths. The desperation in his voice frightens me more than I am already.

BANG! BANG! BANG!

The newest round of beating on the front door causes my hands to shake, but I’m determined not to let that or my racing heart prevent me from doing what I need to do.

“Listen, Levi. You stay put. The last thing I need is for you to make your way into the fence and for Alex or Bobbi to catch you.”

“I’m coming, Emily. I don’t give a shit what they do to me.”

It’s my job to make him see reason. It’s my job to protect him. From himself.

“Just wait. I’ll have the phone with me. You’ll know if I need anything. If I do, you can call whoever you want. Okay?”

I can almost hear him as he slows. “All right, Em. I want you to talk loud enough for me to know what’s going on… Please.”

“I will. I promise.”

BANG! BANG! BANG!

This round of knocks is so powerful I think the door’s hinges might actually break.
