Overview

Growing up in a devout household, Grace was always told she was special and would change the world. She was a Holy Child, born on Palm Sunday. Her childhood was spent in church, Latin lessons, and prayer. She was shunned by her classmates and community. More than anything, she just wanted to be normal. The one person who let her be herself was her best friend, Aaron. Together as outcasts, Grace and Aaron faced their difficult childhoods together until he was forced to move away.

Life pressed on for Grace as her mother kept trying to force her into the church not knowing that Grace had a secret and its name was Onoskelis.

Onoskelis was a demon who took the form of a beautiful woman, entranced men, and strangled them. As a Holy Child, Grace was able to communicate with the demon who taught her how to walk, talk, dress, and seduce. Together, they took out deadly revenge on the men who broke Grace's heart.

Eventually, Grace moved away from her overbearing mother, left the church, and exceled in a career as a museum curator. But, when Aaron returned to her life, Onoskelis decided it was his turn to die. Grace must fend off the demon who made her the woman she became in order to protect her childhood best friend and the love of her life.

About the Author

My name is Marie Joseph-Charles and I am a writer of love and death.Why death? It is the undeniable fascination with murder and the macabre. What makes someone take the life of another? It's something many of us have pondered. It is easy to say I could never kill anyone. But I have never been a mother in a position to protect my child. I have never been kidnapped and held in captivity with only one way to escape. I am not a jilted lover. In writing, I can transform myself into any one of people and find out what motivates them and feel what it's like to take a life.Why love? In truth, at my core, I am a hopeful romantic. Finding someone you want to wake up to in the morning and can't wait to tell about your day at night is a beautiful thing. Finding that person who makes you feel whole is something so many of us long for. It is our nature to want this other half for ourselves.I invite you all to take part as we explore those fundamental fascinations that are rooted in the human core: Love and Death.
