Beschreibung
Spring-Heeled Jack is a British urban legend, first appearing in 1837. Eye witnesses tell of a man who could leap several stories in the air with little effort. Some say he could breathe blue fire, others say he lured women out of their homes and attacked them by clawing at their faces. By all accounts he was a thief and a menace. Sightings of Spring-Heeled Jack continued for several centuries and crossed numerous continents, but he has been mysteriously absent from the 21st century. Until now. Spring-Heeled Jack breaks into the houses of two women, brutally attacking them both. Police report that a few items from each house were stolen and neither women were critically injured. His appearance is frightening: dressed in all black with hat, full face mask, goggles, cape, shirt, pants, and boots. He then breaks into an antique store, searching for special items for their energies including a rare glass knife. With the correct combination of objects and energies, Jack can open portals to different times and places. Enter Alice, who works at the store. Jack suspects she herself can open portals and the two develop an unlikely alliance in a search for a portal to a mythological utopia.

Über den Autor
A Colorado native, Jennifer began writing poetry as a means of exorcising and subsequently dissecting her thoughts, a poor girl's therapy as it were. These turned into short stories and slowly but surely longer stories. The stories tend to become paranormal, horror, or dark fantasies through no fault of her own. As most writers know, the work goes where it [...] first book, Perverted Realities, was published in late 2005, her second book, Dragging Wings, followed, and soon after, her third novel Blood of the Broken was released. Later, with publisher Black Bed Sheet Books, she released her widely-acclaimed fantasy thriller The Return of Spring-heeled Jack. Her other published single works include Come this Saturday and Office Vortex. Jennifer is married and lives in Colorado.
