"The Crypt Artist" signed with Club Lighthouse Publishing
The Crypt Artist by
Deborah O'Toole has recently been signed with
Club Lighthouse
Publishing. The novel will be released in both electronic and print
editions in early 2020.
The Crypt Artist:
A near-starving artist finds himself inspired by a group of
long-dead classic painters in a rundown loft in SoHo, New York. One
night he begins to paint a reproduction of art from the past, but
becomes too inebriated to continue. When he awakens, he finds the
painting complete, but unlike the creation he began the night
before. Frequent visits from the ghost of Malachy O'Leary - a quirky Irish
poet from the far distant past - convinces Luca he is on the verge
of losing his mind. He hears strange music and sees lights coming
from the vacant apartment Malachy used to occupy while he was alive,
and soon discovers Malachy is not alone: he is often accompanied by
a perpetually hissing cat, and shares his old apartment with a
selection of famous artists from long ago. Luca is the only one who
can see the phantom visions and hear the ghostly talk, further
convincing him he is slipping into a well of insanity from which there
is no return.
