My Book

FOR AGENTS/PUBLISHERS:

I am seeking representation for my 83,000 word Young Adult fantasy, MIRROR BLOOD.  It is a stand alone book with series potential.  I have two additional WIPS in the works, both YA fantasies.

MIRROR BLOOD

Imagine Marie Antoinette's court meets Invasion of the Body Snatchers.

Sixteen-year-old orphan Oliver discovers he has "mirror blood", a rare genetic mutation that allows him to pass through a special mirror into an alternate universe.  This other world, similar to Marie Antoinette's 18th century France, is ruled by the Count, and his Swan Court.  They extend their lives indefinitely by invading the bodies of people with the mutation.   Every seven years, the host bodies start to deteriorate, leaving the Count and his court desperate for new skins.  Oliver learns that not only are his parents are still alive, but the Count currently resides in the body of his father.  Against his better judgment, Oliver is drawn to the Count's daughter Pru, who is either  conspiring against him or his only chance for help. When Oliver's little sister is snatched, he must decide who to trust to free his family from the clutches of the Count.
