Welcome to the Empire of the Dead
Paris, France, is known as the City of Lights, a metropolis renowned for romance and beauty. Beneath the bustling streets and cafés, however, exists The Catacombs, a labyrinth of crumbling tunnels filled with six million dead.

When a video camera containing mysterious footage is discovered deep within their depths, a group of friends venture into the tunnels to investigate. But what starts out as a lighthearted adventure takes a turn for the worse when they reach their destination—and stumble upon the evil lurking there.

Interview with the Author
Q - So, who are your favorite authors and why?

A – I grew up reading all the big names in horror like Stephen King and Dean Koontz and James Herbert and Clive Barker. I’ve also always enjoyed Bentley Little and Richard Laymon. Recently I'm getting into some new names in dark suspense like Bobby Adair and Joe Hill and Blake Crouch.

I also like a lot of crime authors who write urban murder stories such as Martina Cole, Lisa Gardner, Linwood Barclay, Harlan Coben, Karen Slaughter, and so forth.

Why do I like them? They write great horror/thriller/suspense stories that check all the boxes: realistic characters, scary settings, real chills, lurking dread, danger, fast pacing, plots twists. And they also experiment with genres, mixing horror with science fiction, or psychological suspense with supernatural suspense, or occult thrillers with crime thrillers, and so forth. Furthermore, I enjoy writers who have a flare for creating engrossing moods, whether they are dark, disturbing, scary, vengeful, you name it.
