The second book by a writer hailed as “the new Stephen King” is due to be released on March 29.
Dean Vincent Carter, a former Tenbury High School pupil whose family live in south Shropshire, received rave reviews for his first book Hand of the Devil, which was released last year. And he is hoping for the same success with The Hunting Season.
Mr Carter said: “Hunting Season is the working title of my second book, a werewolf/gangster/chase thriller. One thing I can say is that the book will be a corker. I’m very pleased with it.
“March 29 is the current publishing date, and it’s just as hard to be patient as it was for the first book. Still, it’s a small price to pay.”
The fictional book is set in Austria.
Mr Carter, 30, said: “Eight years ago, the Austrian emergency services were called to the scene of a bizarre car accident. Two mangled bodies were found in the snow not far from the vehicle, clawed and chewed by a ferocious animal.
“Something unspeakable took Gerontius Moore’s parents from him, leaving him orphaned and alone. Now, that something, is back.
“Caught up in a terrifying hunt and finding help from an unlikely source, Gerontius must once more flee the clutches of an appalling beast.”
