Synopsis

The Devil's Bible. Once considered an eighth wonder of the world, the ancient book is shrouded in mystery. No one knows who wrote it or where it was written. Even dry-boned scholars whisper about the secrets hidden in the book: How it calls to the power-hungry. How it drives people mad. How it was written in the shadows by the hand of the devil himself.

But no one knows the truth—no one except Mouse.

She's been running from the truth at the heart of the Devil's Bible for so long that no one even knows her name anymore. She calls herself Emma Nicholas—a normal name for a normal college professor living a normal life. But all of it is a lie, and, when forces emerge that threaten to expose her, Mouse has no choice but to take flight once more.

Desperate and on the run, Mouse unexpectedly finds hope in a stranger's kindness. But it will take more than hope to win this game of souls—a battle between good and evil set in motion long ago at the birth of the Devil's Bible.

About Dana Chamblee Carpenter

Dana Chamblee Carpenter is the author of The Devil's Bible, the sequel to Bohemian Gospel, a supernatural historical thriller which won the 2014 Killer Nashville Claymore Award and which Publisher's Weekly called "a deliciously creepy debut." Edgar Award nominee and author of Bliss House and The Abandoned Heart, Laura Benedict says, "Look out, Dan Brown. Dana Chamblee Carpenter is the angels' new champion in the timeless battle between darkness and light. The Devil's Bible is not just a book, but a shining, vibrant tale for the ages-told with history and heart-that will have readers both weeping and cheering not only for brave Mouse, but for all of humanity."

Carpenter's award-winning short fiction has appeared in the Arkansas Review, Jersey Devil Press, Maypop, and, most recently in the anthology, Killer Nashville Noir: Cold Blooded.

She teaches at a private university in Nashville, Tennessee, where she lives with her husband and two children.

Not as exciting as the previous novel… My thanks to my contacts at Pegasus Books, Iris Blasi, Katie McGuire, and Maia Larson, for my advance reading copy of this book. You ladies rock!
