The Redeemer Chronicles: REDEEMER
ysabetwordsmith has invited me to not only post here about my current crowdfund project, REDEEMER, but also to link to a couple of recent crowdfunding posts I've done, including The 10% Problem and what makes crowdfunding tick for me.
REDEEMER itself is an urban fantasy set in 1945 (this is your grandma's urban fantasy!): As monsters follow the boys home from WW2, Rosie Ransom learns she can redeem a damned soul--but will she lose her own in the process?
The war is over...but for Rosie the Redeemer, the homefront battle is just about to begin!
It's July 1945, and handsome young soldier Johnathon Goode is home from the war. Reportedly shattered by his experiences, he takes a night shift job at the local factory. It's no surprise that the girls there are smitten with the handsome young soldier, but as they start to leave their jobs--and no forwarding addresses--Rosie Ransom begins to suspect there's more to Johnny's homecoming than believed.
When Johnny tries to turn a vampiric bite on her, Rosie kills him in self defense--and sees his soul, pure and uncorrupted, rise into the ether. Within hours, she's approached by handsome, dangerous Hank Turner, who believes her to be a Redeemer--a rare talent who can save a lost soul even after demonic possession has taken place.
Rosie, facing the loss of her factory job as men--and her fiance Rich Thompson--come home from the war, is eager for any future that grants her the independence she's come to cherish as a working woman. If there are monsters to slay, she'll embrace the opportunity. Because without Rosie's help, the scare started by Johnny may turn into a full-fledged nightmare...
Teaser chapters are available here and the Kickstarter (which crossed the funding threshold while I was typing this!!!) is is right here: The Redeemer Chronicles! :)
