The Estuary By Derek Gunn Is Now Released
Irish writer, Derek Gunn's latest thriller, The Estuary, has been released by Permuted Press. According to the author, The Estuary is a fast-paced, horror adventure tale, about a desperate plan formulated in the darkest years of an evil empire, which now threatens to engulf the residents of a small community in Southern Ireland. "I’m delighted that The Estuary is now available from Permuted Press, who are making tremendous strides forward in publishing horror/post-apocalyptic genre fiction" says Derek.
Permuted Press are a US based publisher of apocalyptic horror including bestselling and cult-classic titles from Bram Stoker Award winner Dr. Kim Paffenroth, David Wong, J.L. Bourne, Z.A. Recht and many more.
Derek Gunn is the author of the post-apocalyptic horror saga, Vampire Apocalypse, a series of novels released through US publisher, Black Death Books.
An earlier work of Derek's has been optioned for film by producer/screenwriter Richard Finney. Finney and screenwriter, Franklin Guerrero Jr., recently penned a script based on the book. Their adaptation led to a recent partnership on the project with producer, Robert Lawrence (Die Hard: With a Vengence, Clueless, The Last Castle). Currently the project is being represented by the Creative Artists Agency (CAA) who is packaging the project for the studios.
THE ESTUARY is available (or can be ordered from) most booksellers.
From the back cover -
"ALMOST FIFTEEN THOUSAND MEN, WOMEN AND CHILDREN TURNED INTO FLESH EATING ZOMBIES BY A LONG-FORGOTTEN NAZI CHEMICAL WEAPON...SOUND LIKE YOUR THING?"
- David Moody, author of HATER.
Journalist, John Pender has returned to his home town of Whiteshead to rekindle his marriage. Ex-British intelligence officer Dave Johnson has arrived to isolate himself after his fiancé is murdered during a mission that went terribly wrong. But excavations for the new shopping centre unearth a mysterious contagion that threatens to throw their lives into chaos.
Now the residents of Whiteshead are trapped within a quarantine zone with the military on one side and ravenous hordes of living dead on the other. Escape is no longer an option.
Far out in the mouth of the estuary a small Keep sits forlornly surrounded by an apron of jagged rocks. This refuge has always been unassailable, a place of myth and legend that has grown in folklore through the years. Now, it’s the survivors’ only hope of sanctuary. But there are thousands of flesh-eating infected between them and the Keep and time is running out …
"A SEEMINGLY IDYLLIC SETTING, CHARACTERS FULL OF HUMAN WEAKNESS AND HEROISM, AND A MYSTERIOUS CONTAGION THAT THREATENS TO DESTROY EVERYTHING - FANTASTIC INGREDIENTS FOR THE MODERN HORROR NOVEL!"
- Gav thorpe, author of MALEKITH
