Victor Faust’s new Order is growing.
Business is good as there is no rest for the wicked in an underground world of
hardcore criminals and contract killing. Relationships among the operatives
have changed little over the past year—but things are about to change now, and all six high-ranking members of the
new Order will be blindsided by an unlikely enemy.
Loved ones whose only ties to Victor’s
organization are their relationships with its members, are abducted. The price
to get them back safely—the six must confess their deepest, darkest secret to
this mysterious young woman named Nora, who is as deadly as she is beautiful,
and who seems to know more about each of them than they know about each other.
And although no one has any clue about who Nora really is, it becomes clear
that she also isn’t who she appears
to be.
So much more is at stake than secrets
and the lives of innocent loved ones; with each member that Nora forces to
confess, the truth about their dark pasts and their present objectives will cast
suspicion, pit some against each other, and may tear others apart.
Before the game is over everyone will
know who this woman is and why she is here, but the damage she will leave in
her wake could be the beginning of the new Order’s destruction.
Whose dark secret will be the darkest of
all? And can Victor’s Order survive any of them?

Excerpt
SEEDS OF
INIQUITY – Book #4 In the Company of Killers
J.A.
Redmerski
Something inside
of me snaps, and my eyes spring open wildly in my face. I scream out something
I can’t even decipher and finally get my fingers between the chain and my
throat. I pull it away with everything in me, spurred on by rage and vengeance
and the will to live, until I overpower her and set my neck free, slamming her
legs down against the floor.
She starts to
crawl away on her hands and knees in the direction of my overturned chair. I
leap to my feet, pulling Pearl from
my boot before I’m fully upright, and I’m standing over her with the blade
against her throat and the back of her hair in my fist, pulling her neck back
as far as it’ll go without snapping.
“I’ll cut off more
than your finger, bitch!”
She freezes; her
hips and pelvis and legs pressed against the floor; the whites of her eyes
visible to me as I stand over her from behind.
“Where is Dina?!”
I yank on her scalp, pulling her neck back even farther; if she even flinches
the wrong way the blade will break the skin and she knows it. “Fuck these games
of yours! Tell me where you took her!”
“Come closer and
I’ll tell you,” she says with difficulty, her voice strained.
Without even
thinking about it I do, but I keep the blade against her throat as I sit down
on her back.
“Try anything and
I’ll kill you,” I growl, my lips next to her ear.
She doesn’t try to
fight back, but I’m not feeling defeat from her. It’s something else. That
confidence about her that I’ve grown to despise. Even though I’m the one sitting on top of her, the one with the knife pressed to her throat, I can’t help feel like she’s
still the one in control.
“Where is she?” I whisper harshly against the
side of her face.
“If you want Dina
Gregory to live,” she says, still in a whisper too low for the audio to pick
up, “then you and I need to have a talk about the specifics of the relationship
you had with Javier Ruiz.”
It feels like an
eternity that I sit on top of her, straddling her back, lost in some kind of
stunned submission. I can’t find words. Or my heartbeat. And my mind is running
away from me.
Then my knife hand
begins to tremble and my breathing becomes unsteady.
I slide the knife
away from her throat, push her head down forcibly against the tile with the
other hand, shoving myself angrily to my feet and off of her. I don’t look at
her when she gets up, struggling into a stand with her ankles bound. And I look
only at the floor when she shuffles right past me, picking up her black heels
along the way, and goes back over to her seat on the other side of the table.
I keep my back to
her, unable to move; my eyes beginning to burn from the angry tears pushing
their way to the surface. My knife is gripped within my hand firmly, resting
down at my side. I feel like using it on myself.
“Shall we begin?”
Nora says as calmly as ever, waiting for me at the table.

Five Fun Facts about J.A. Redmerski –

‘Jessie’.

I’m a sucker for an emotional

I have a mild case of OCD and
hypochondria.

Years ago, I used to have

close to me would catch fire on the fourth day!
