What do you get when you mix the paranormal with a twist of horror, science fiction, and romance? Doylestown author Donna Galanti’s debut novel, “A Human Element,” (Echelon Press March 2012). Galanti’s first novel has been well received with local and national critics.
Jonathan Maberry, New York Times best-selling author of “Assassin’s Code” and “Dead of Night” says, “A Human Element is an elegant and haunting first novel. Highly recommended.”
In “A Human Element,” Laura Armstrong’s friends and family members are being murdered, and despite her unique healing powers, she can do nothing to stop it. The savage killer haunts her dreams, tormenting her with the promise that she is next.
Determined to find the killer, she follows her visions to the site of a crashed meteorite that occurred some 30 years before – and also happens to be the town where she grew up. There, she meets Ben Fieldstone, and in a race to stop a madman, they unravel a frightening secret that binds them together.
But the killer’s desire to destroy Laura face-to-face leads to a showdown that puts Laura and Ben’s relationship and Laura’s pure spirit to the test. With the killer closing in, Laura discovers her destiny is linked to his and she has two choices – redeem him or kill him.
Donna Galanti has a B.A. in English from The State University of New York at Albany and is a member of International Thriller Writers, The Greater Lehigh Valley Writers Group, and Pennwriters.
