Bloodshot Books is now shipping the 15th anniversary edition of my first novel, The Organ Donor. Purchase links: Paperback, eBook.
Synopsis:
They knew it was wrong to purchase a kidney off the Chinese black market. But what the Taylor brothers didn’t realize was that its unwilling donor was an executed prisoner—and an immortal being from Chinese mythology. Pursuing them to Washington, DC, this ancient king will stop at nothing to recover what was once his.
The 15th anniversary edition of Matthew Warner’s acclaimed first horror novel includes nearly 7,000 words of new material, including the author’s riveting account of his true-life encounter with China’s illegal organ trade.
“I couldn’t believe how good it was. … Matt Warner took the used up idea and sowed a story full of old myths born anew. … Warner has written a classic of modern horror literature. I’ve read it 3 times now.” — Eddie “Feo Amante” McMullen, Jr.
