Resultados para "The Express" en Terror

When William Langford boards the 4:15 express on a damp December evening, he expects nothing more than a quiet journey to his friend’s country estate. But his solitary compartment is unexpectedly intruded upon by a familiar traveler—a reserved, pale-faced gentleman carrying a heavy deed-box and an unsettling air. By the time the train slows into Blackwater station, the stranger disappears into the swirling mist. And then—he is gone. Not merely from sight, but from the world.

Paris, 1914. American adventurer Sam Carter boards the Orient Express, departing France in style after an impulsive decision to desert the Foreign Legion. British diplomat Lucas Avery is already nursing a drink in the smoking car, resenting his assignment to the distant Ottoman Empire. Neither man expects anything more from the next three days and three thousand miles than rich food, expensive champagne and fine cigars. But something dangerous is lurking aboard the train, hiding in plain sight among French aristocrats and German businessmen.

In Wien startet unter der Schirmherrschaft des Künstlers Karl Hubert zu Eisenstein ein ungewöhnlicher Sonderzug Richtung Osten: der Vampir-Express! Zahlreiche Reisende, darunter Lady Sarah Goldwyn, erhoffen sich ein Vergnügen der ganz besonderen Art. Doch was sie erwartet - ist das nackte Grauen!

Zeus has gone too far this time. There are some things I can forgive, but this isn’t one of them. My only option is to recruit an army of monsters to destroy the god who’s supposed to rule over us all. In order to do that, I have to make two trips. First, I must visit the monster council—who all hate vampires—and beg for their help in the battle to come. Second, I’ll need to travel to hell to free the Fomorians, an enslaved species of monsters who have been locked away for thousands of years by my biological father. I’ll save my mates, kill a god, and reclaim the crown.

There’s a hit list circulating the prison, offering up large sums of cash for our deaths—me and all of my men. Assassins, serial killers, and murderers...They’re all coming out of the woodwork to collect their prize. Even a queen and her kings can't fight off an entire army. Escape is our only option if we want to survive.

Thrust into Nightmare Penitentiary, I meet a group of hard, alpha, psychotic inmates who believe I’m the answer to all their prayers. Me? I’m just trying to survive and figure out what it means to live. My new home isn’t just a prison, but a labyrinth with horrors around every corner.

When the Damning commences (a fight to the death against the world's most brutal serial killers, assassins, and torturers), a twist of fate finds me as one of the competitors. Despite my initial reluctance, I find myself eagerly participating.

So, here's the deal. I got locked up for a crime I totally committed. Yup. Your girl stabbed a ho...or four. Stabbed, maimed, ate, slaughtered. You get the picture. Not what you expected to hear from me, huh? But everything changes when I'm broken out of Prodigium Academy by the exact man I've been trying to hide from: Lucifer. AKA my sperm donor. AKA the man who tried to kill me as a baby. Fun times, right? With a few simple words, everything changes. I no longer know who I can trust or who will simply stab me in the back the second I turn away.

My life’s a lie. Yes, I have a flair for the dramatic, but that’s not the case this time around. Dracula has been lying to me, and now, we’re both going to pay the price.

As the daughter of Dracula, you would think I’d be born the perfect monster. You couldn’t be more wrong. As far as monsters go, I’m a screw up—if I’m not tripping over my own feet, I’m accidentally murdering someone (it’s a real issue, guys). Left with no choice, Dad decides to send me to Prodigium—otherwise known as Monster Academy—to train me on how to be a better monster. When bodies turn up on campus, I’m the prime suspect (not that I can blame them).

This contains book 1.5, Demon Stalked, and Book 2. After the demons confessed that I'm their center - their fated mate - I ran like the hounds from hell were on my heels. But my demons? They won't let me go. And maybe I don't want them to. With the threats from the angels getting more and more dire, and my mom and dad making a reappearance in my life, this might be more than we can handle. When new secrets come to light, we must decide if our love is strong enough to conquer anything.

Honestly, how was I supposed to know that a love spell was actually a summoning spell...and that it would work? Now, I have five demons at my beck and call, their sole purpose to fulfill my heart's deepest desire - which is to make William Washington fall head-over-heels in love with me. Their solution? Insert themselves in every aspect of my life in order to make William jealous.
