The Forever Killer
Steve Peek, author
Serial Killers: always evoke morbid fascination Caligula: the most infamous, murderous Caesar of Rome A psychic whose cancer grows with each use of her ability Imagine a serial killer with unlimited power. A mad man who commands the world’s most feared army and navy. He need only whisper the word ‘traitor,’ and a noble family falls to the executioners. Gaius Caesar, Caligula, the most ruthless and maddest of Roman Emperors, was such a man. He feared one thing: death. In Caligula’s mind, mortality was the only thing that betrayed his self-proclaimed godhood. Using potions and spells, Caligula creates a crippled form of immortality. He becomes the Forever Killer, murdering through the ages. Sarah Warner does not like to touch people. When she was nine years old, a kidnapper abused and beat her for days. During the unimaginable trauma, she found solace in imaginary visits with her deceased grandmother, who told little Sarah about the extraordinary ability she inherited. Sarah escapes her kidnapper and returns to what seems an unremarkable childhood. Unseen, unfelt, a tiny tumor begins to grow in her brain. Her ability to know things about people she touches, or who touch her, reaches maturity when she is in her mid-twenties, the same time the cancer symptoms manifest. After three years of voyages, Marcus Antonius returns to Caligula’s Rome. Caligula chooses the wealthy merchant to die in the mad emperor’s quest for immortality. Caligula entraps Antonius’ spirit in a marble statue, then proceeds to kill his family and all living relatives. Marcus’s spirit circles a nameless void for two thousand years. When Sarah touches a bust of Caligula in the New York Met, a tiny spark transfers the essence of Marcus into her mind. Sarah believes the tumor makes her delusional. Over time she comes to know the truth. Not only is Marcus real and shares her brain and body, but she also begins to understand the two of them must find and kill Caligula. They hunt and find Caligula aboard his billion-dollar superyacht anchored off the coast of the Isle of Capri in the Mediterranean Sea. Sarah travels to this beautiful resort island to confront Caligula and end his two-thousand-year, killing spree.
