THE DARK STIRS

BOOK ONE OF THE DARK MATTER SERIES

The world is ready…and the Dark stirs.
A serial killer terrorizes the streets of Baltimore. Authorities follow a trail of bloodless bodies, searching for a deluded maniac. Angelique Carlson, the only one to survive an attack, knows the reality—she had felt his frigid touch…had seen the monster’s deadly fangs:

“His name is Anders Saffenssen, and he is a vampire.”

Even her savior, John Wilkins, doubts her sanity. Yet, her talk of vampires and shadows doesn’t deter his growing feelings for her. He brings safety and stability to Angelique. His mundane life at first is enough for her, but as she slowly descends into madness, their fragile relationship rips apart.

Life goes on…until it doesn’t.

John P. Wallman’s debut novel explores how lives, entangled by tragedy, fall apart but never truly separate—and how that tragedy exposes sinister and holy forces operating behind human reality. The Dark Stirs is the first book of The Dark Matter Series.
