A note for parents
Ghost Heart is an adult-oriented vampire horror novel with strong violent and dark themes. The book features predatory vampires, blood-drinking, and intense action sequences in a gritty horror setting. While there are elements of romance, the tone is dark and the story explores themes of seduction and danger rather than celebrating positive relationships. This is best suited for mature teens and adults.

"Possessing a firm grasp of tradition but with his vision clearly focused on the future, John Palisano is exactly the type of writer horror needs right now: bold, brave, imaginative and unflinching." -Bentley Little "John Palisano's Ghost Heart is a gritty, action-packed novel with strong characterization and some trul... "Possessing a firm grasp of tradition but with his vision clearly focused on the future, John Palisano is exactly the type of writer horror needs right now: bold, brave, imaginative and unflinching." -Bentley Little "John Palisano's Ghost Heart is a gritty, action-packed novel with strong characterization and some truly nasty vampires. Highly recommended!" -Tim Waggoner, author of Eat the Night and The Way of All Flesh "John Palisano crashes the zombie apocalypse genre into dystopian fiction at high speeds. Clever, brutal and highly entertaining." -Jonathan Maberry, New York Times bestselling author of Fall of Night Live fast, die young, and leave a bloodthirsty corpse. That's the saying of a new pack of fiendish predators infesting a New England town. They're infected with the Ghost Heart, a condition that causes them to become irresistible and invincible...as long as they drink the blood of the living. But these vampires don't live forever, and as the Ghost Heart claims them, their skin loses color and their hearts turn pale. When a young mechanic is seduced by the pack's muse, he finds falling in love will break more than his heart.
