In this new anniversary edition, the author has reimagined her work. The result is a suspenseful, irreverent, and deeply spiritual novel that captivates from the very beginning and doesn\u2019t let go.<\/p>\n<p>When Randa, a reporter for an alternative newspaper in Los Angeles, receives an urgent phone call from her estranged lover, Cam, she rushes to his apartment. She arrives to discover that he\u2019s leapt from the building to his death. Police believe that before committing suicide, Cam also murdered someone in a convenience store, but Randa does not believe Cam is capable of such an act. She seeks out Cam\u2019s brother, Jack, who is living off the grid, somewhere near Atlanta, in hope of figuring out what really happened.<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, a Jesuit priest named Michael Kinney has been exiled from New York City to the boondocks of Georgia after making controversial public statements. He has said things that educated people of faith are not supposed to express. Even more problematically, he has fallen in love with a woman, and the last surviving member of his family has kept a shocking family secret from him.<\/p>\n<p>How these characters converge is part of the thrilling mystery of <em>Dark Debts,<\/em> a cult favorite first published twenty years ago. In this new edition, author Karen Hall has re-imaged her southern gothic tale and the result is a work of even greater power\u2014a brilliantly realized and suspenseful evocation of the conflict between good and evil.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Published as a Hardcover Limited Edition:<br \/>\n\u2022 Limited to just 750 signed and numbered copies<br \/>\n\u2022 Personally signed by Karen Hall on a unique signature page<br \/>\n\u2022 <\/strong><strong>Printed on 60# acid-free paper<br \/>\n\u2022 Bound in full-cloth with colored head and tail bands<br \/>\n\u2022 Featuring hot foil stamping on the front boards and spine<br \/>\n\u2022 Printed and bound with full-color endpapers<br \/>\n\u2022 Smyth sewn to create a more durable binding<br \/>\n\u2022 Wrapped in a full-color dust jacket<\/strong><br \/>\n<strong>\u2022 Limited ONE TIME printing of this special edition<br \/>\n\u2022 Retail price just $50!<\/strong><\/p>\n<p align=\"center\"><strong><a href=\"http:\/\/www.cemeterydance.com\/page\/CDP\/PROD\/hall01\"><span style=\"font-size: large;\">Read more or place your order while supplies last!<\/span><\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p align=\"left\">Thank you, as always, for your continued support and enthusiasm!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Dark Debts by Karen Hall Book #1 from the Cemetery Dance Gold Seal imprint, personally selected and introduced by Stephen King! &#8220;I loved this book!&#8221; \u2014 Stephen King Hi Folks!
