FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE July 13, 2013. Colorado Springs, Colorado. U.S.A. Waking Purgatory Barry James Hickey releases his fourth novel – a riveting paranormal horror mystery that spins reader’s minds. Hickey’s plotting plays with the who what where when whys and hows of great mystery writing, leaving his readers guessing to the very end. In his new book Waking Purgatory (Createspace Publishing, 2013), Barry James Hickey pits secret family legacies soaked in despair and grief against mankind’s obsession to open and explore the blind spot between heaven and hell.... The small quiet town of Purgatory in the rolling hills of western Illinois is the setting. It is a town trapped between heaven and hell. Seduced by a job offer that will change their lives forever, Amanda Lemon and her curious young twins quickly learn there is a thin line between madness and genius. Their new home is not the idyllic town they prayed for after all. Something extraordinary is supposed to happen on Halloween. Members of an ancient society known as ECHO lurk in the shadows, bent on fulfilling a centuries-old promise. And then there is the caretaker of Guardian Grove cemetery, bible in hand preaching, “Never wake the dead. Never!” There are delightful and disturbing subplots here reminding readers of the spirit and imagination of youth, the bent bonds families must face, the troubled ideals of common individuals in our midst and the emotional discovery of past loves. Waking Purgatory is available by order in bookstores or online at Amazon, Barnes & Noble and other retailers. It is also available through Kindle and the Kindle lending library for eBook readers.
