Phony psychic, Amber Malamo, cheats suckers. When a legendary beast speaks to her in dreams, visions, and the death of her beloved Poppa, Amber must face an unknown horror lying in wait and learn that real life is more dangerous than any con she can invent.

Detective Douglas Yals doesn't believe in psychic mumbo-jumbo, but when he finds bodies strangled, stoned, and decapitated, he knows an unimaginable evil lurks around the corner.

Man knows no fury like the Devil scorned. And this time...God can only watch...

Editorial Reviews

Review

"4 Stars!...One of those rare horror novels; a story that keeps you not quite sure what the ending will be until you get to the last page. This reviewer is one of the loyal X-Files 'crowd,' and Ms. Andre definitely handled the story of El Chupa better than Mulder did. Peopled with interesting characters, from Amber's transvestite friend Will to Doug's puzzle-loving secretary Rachel, the story never loses pace. Events seem to head in one line then veer sharply to the left. Just when you think you've got the whole thing figured out, Ms. Andre throws in another curve...If you are uncomfortable with graphic violence, this is probably not the book for you. While tastefully handled, Ms. Andre spares nothing as she describes her grisly murder scenes...A gripping tale of psychological and physical terror, and one this reader will probably read again someday to see what clues were missed the first time through."--Reviewed by RIE, Love Romances

"Cass Andre delivers a horrifying fictional account of a legend come to life. Descriptive writing, suspenseful dialogue, and characters that jump off the page to frighten or mesmerize will intrigue any reader...The story held my intense attention throughout the entire read. The ending blew me away! I very highly recommend El Chupacabra to anyone wishing to submerge into violent 'beastly' depths of horror."--Patricia Spork, ebook Reviews Weekly --This text refers to the Kindle Edition edition.
