Bloody Waters
Is the Devil more trustworthy than a record executive?
Young guitar virtuoso Clarice Marnier is on the verge of success when she crosses the wrong A&R man. Suddenly, instead of being signed to a major label, she's blacklisted.
So Clarice makes a deal with the Devil: the soul of her enemy for a record deal and a second chance.
As Clarice and her band, Bloody Waters, begin their ascent to rock stardom, they are beset by a strange array of enemies. Has-been guitar heroes, popstar succubi, spell-slinging DJs, angry divas and killer angels— every occult freak and music industry player in LA wants something from them, whether it’ s a slice of their fame or a bite of their souls.
There’ s a lot more at stake than just a record deal— but what does the Devil really want, and how far will Clarice go to protect what’ s hers?
Jason Franks is the author of the novels Bloody Waters, Faerie Apocalypse, and Shadowmancy and the writer of the Sixsmiths comics, which have variously been short-listed for Aurealis, Ditmar and Ledger awards. His short fiction has been published in Deathlings, Aurealis, Midnight Echo, and many other magazines and anthologies.
