Please consider the romantic thriller Stan, a story of Satan’s one shot at redemption in modern-day New York City. Can a woman’s love overcome the epitome of evil? That’s the hope of Stan Foster, a controversial, up-and-coming star in the NYC art scene—who also happens to be Satan in disguise. Problem is he doesn’t know it yet. A suicide attempt has left him with amnesia and a head full of visions of death and destruction, which he uses to fuel his ever-more disturbing work. Eventually he finds out who he really is and that he has a choice: go back to rule in hell or remain on earth as a regular man with no special power or fame. To earn this salvation, Stan must find one person to forgive him for all the sins he’s committed. Enter Abigail: lapsed Catholic, lonely city dweller, and psychiatrist with a heart of gold. Meeting Stan makes her question everything she’s believed about faith and humanity for so long, but can she overcome her own troubled background and offer him the redemption he needs—and ultimately wants? Part love story, part edgy psychological thriller, Stan will appeal to readers of The Last Werewolf by Glen Duncan, NOS4A2 by Joe Hill, and Dan Brown’s Inferno. Richard Wold is a business owner and consultant. He currently lives in Gurnee, Illinois. Stan is his first novel. |
