Atop a dark, desolate stretch of blood-spattered West Texas asphalt, the road to survival will require the ultimate sacrifice.
From the author of 'In Sheep's Clothing', 'Sea of Bones', and 'Oddity Manor':
Six passengers, to include a pair of ruthless fugitives-from-justice and a mysterious stowaway, trek cautiously atop a rain-slickened West Texas blacktop in a hijacked commercial bus, foolishly believing they’ve endured the worst the long, dark night has to offer.
Amid a frantic manhunt and torrential rains that gradually submerge the aged asphalt, they will discover the road to survival is riddled with the ultimate in unnatural roadblocks in the form of a vile, unearthly entity whose sinister agenda includes the procurement of their very souls.
As the nightmarish journey brakes to a bone-chilling conclusion, the most unlikely of heroes will emerge even as those initially pegged as villain will find their roles dramatically flipped for self-preservation's sake.
'Blacktop' is now on sale at Amazon.com, Barnes & Noble.com and other on-line retailers in Kindle, Nook-book and print versions.
Professional Reviews I gotta say, this is his best work in years. Thumbs up!
Every once in a while, you read a book from one of your favorite authors and get blown away by how good it is. Not that the other works were bad, but this work is especially good. Such is the case with "Blacktop". This is the best book Terry Vinson has written since Purgatory Inn or Gauntlet.
It has all the elements that make his writing so engaging. Mystery, thrills, violence, and yes, plenty of blood and gore. Not for the squeamish. In a really interesting vein , the supposed bad guys actually end up flip-flopping with the supposed good guys. More chaos ensues. And more... and more... and even more!
The ending has at least three twists that were not foreseen. Well, maybe four, counting the final sequence. Like Vinson's previous works, this thriller is an eclectic blend of horror, action, sci-fi, and mystery. I gotta say, this is his best work in years. Thumbs up!

I like the idea. There is a TV series on right now, Midnight Texas, that I'm not watching because it is way too bizarre. But I am watching Preacher. Raw entertainment with no semblance to any truth.
