IN BLOOD WRITTEN by Steven Womack

 Finished We 6/19/24

This is a book that I bought from Amazon for fifty cents. I loaned a book by Womack to Janny and she said she'd like to read more by this Crime author from Tennessee. 

Storyline: A Crime author catches fire and is he a serial killer writing about his murders or is there a copycat killer using his novels as blueprints? That's a great premise, but there was no surprise and the book ended on a whimper rather than a bang. 

The overview at Barnes and Noble:

"At first, it was only research . . .

Author Michael Schiftmann has received resounding critical acclaim for his novels that few people buy or read. The sad truth is that readers aren't interested in great literature—they only want glitz and violence. So that's what Michael intends to give them—shocking stories of a blood-chillingly efficient serial killer that are filled with gore and horror. And to ensure that his books are impeccably realistic in every aspect, he plans to try his own hand . . . at murder.

Soon his fictional killer is a sensation, and Michael is a rich, sought-after celebrity—and his beautiful, rising-star literary agent, Taylor Robinson, is falling in love with him. But there is one serious problem: Michael Schiftmann has discovered that bloodletting feels good . . . and he can't seem to stop."
