"Inspired, weird, funny, bloody, and thrilling, The Mesmerist sucks you in."
* * *
He kills with his mind. Only an unbeliever can stop him.
Tod Fisher is a simple cop with a complicated past. His brother Johnny had a strange gift that he was forced to hide—until the moment he ended his life.
Haunted by that memory, Tod sees Johnnys everywhere. In the age of disco, New York City has become home to an underground culture of gifted individuals who can kill with a glance or heal with a touch. People called thinks. They’re just like you and me. Some are good. Some aren’t.
A vicious madman is sucking the life out of his victims--crushing their hearts, withering their bodies, and leaving their corpses old before their time.
All with the power of his mind.
Can Tod and his new buddy—a federal agent with a taste for the supernatural—run the killer to ground before they face the unthinkable?
The Mesmerist is the first in a spellbinding series of thrillers featuring psychic phenomena, page-turning suspense, and heart-pounding action.
If you’re a fan of occult or fantasy detectives, paranormal answers to life’s burning questions, noir-fantasy mashups, and diabolical twists and turns, you owe it to yourself to check out The Mesmerist.
Don’t even think about it. Get it today.
Praise:
“Excellent urban fantasy. A very compelling read. D’Agnese manages to create a fantasy world of ‘thinks’—people with special abilities, most of whom are hidden to the rest of the world.” —Robert Swartwood
“Flat-out fun…a book that artfully blends ambition and enjoyment, one well-written that remains entertaining throughout. The Mesmerist casts an intriguing spell.” —Loren Eaton
"The Mesmerist is the quintessential page-turner. Its prose is easily readable, yet has a flow to it that many other authors miss. It's expertly paced; you won't want to put it down. And you'll be rewarded with a highly satisfying ending." —Killer Book Covers
