    Would you swipe right on a man whose last lovers sleep in coffins? 
    Linda Loray said yes—until her late-night train deposits her in fog-choked Torburg, where her enigmatic match, Holt Carst, is missing and the only greeting is an open casket in a decaying hotel lobby. 
    When midnight bells toll, corpse-white hands batter the doors: the League of Lazarus—undead aristocrats who rise nightly to claim a living bride. Linda’s scream ignites a nightmare chase through moonlit graveyards, collapsing stairwells, and a bone-lit crypt where Holt sheds his charming mask and raises a whip. 
    Every escape slams into fresh horror. Guards with shotguns fall, coffins disgorge their tenants, and Linda must choose—become the groom’s “warmth” or bleed for the crowd’s amusement. With the town paralyzed by fear, her only hope is a brooding desk clerk who might betray or save her before the dead hammer shut the crypt forever. 
    For fans of Stephen King’s relentless small-town terrors and Grady Hendrix’s razor-edged retro horror, The Lusting Dead delivers blood-slick suspense, pounding heartbeats, and the fierce thrill of a woman who refuses to stay buried. Open the book—and feel the grave soil shift beneath your feet.
