To the world, Ichiro "Red" Akai is a depressed eighteen-year-old high school dropout.
To his victims, he is a monster.
To himself, he is the Bringer - the one chosen by HELIX to ascend to godhood. The one who shall be given reign over all reality. The one who shall never have to die.
Until one victim comes back.
In her cold, pitch-black hand, she grasps a mask of her former face. No memories - yet.
And she must die a second death before they return.
Hunter, Haunted is a psychological urban fantasy thriller with a villainous lead. The setting resembles early 2000s Earth with the addition of all manner of ghostly creatures. We follow the point of view of Red as he seeks to kill his latest victim's ghost to cover his tracks, but finds that dealing with ghosts isn't that straightforward. Earlier readers have praised the story's strong character voice, creative illusion sequences and dark sense of humor.
Includes strong language, explicit gore, body horror, cannibalism, torture and mental illness. 14 chapters long, sequel planned. Updates every two weeks.
