A brilliant follow-up to a wondrous debut. Book three, where are you? Romantic Times Fans of her Artists series will not be disappointed with this second installment and will no doubt be left panting for the third -- CJ Roberts Karina Halle has done it again with this violently beautiful tale of love, pain, revenge, and loss that will rip you apart, piece by piece, and put you back together again -- S. L. Jennings I'm officially addicted to Karina Halle's writing -- Chelsea M. Cameron

The daughter of a Norwegian Viking and a Finnish Moomin, Karina Halle grew up in Vancouver, Canada, with trolls and eternal darkness on the brain. This soon turned into a love of all things that go bump in the night and a rather sadistic appreciation for freaking people out. Like many of the flawed characters she writes about, Karina never knew where to find herself and has dabbled in acting, make-up artistry, film production, screenwriting, photography, travel writing and music journalism. She eventually found herself in the pages of the very novels she wrote (if only she had looked there to begin with). Karina holds a screenwriting degree from Vancouver Film School and a Bachelor of Journalism from TRU. Her travel writing, music reviews/interviews and photography have appeared in publications such as Consequence of Sound, Mxdwn and GoNomad Travel Guides. She currently lives on an island off the coast of British Columbia with her fianc and her rescue pup, preparing for the zombie apocalypse.
