About this item

by B. M. Briar (Author)

In a crumbling village of ghosts and grief, an assassin and a necromancer are drawn into a dangerous, intimate experiment to defy death-and loneliness.

A gothic horror story about losing the love of your life, So Beats a Hollow Heart follows a nameless assassin-a member of the feared Bloodcloaks-sent to rid a village of the necromancer who has been stealing its young women.

What the assassin finds is not the monster she expects, but a woman deep in grief, desperate to find a new body for the soul of her dead lover.

After her third experiment ends in failure, the necromancer-Isolde-turns her attention to the assassin. Neither woman can anticipate how profoundly they will be changed by Isolde's fourth and final experiment.

So Beats A Hollow Heart is the winner of the Cover Story Writing Contest, hosted by Nicole Frail Books, LLC
