SAN DIEGO - s4story -- While awaiting execution for murdering his son, Benjamin Poe confesses to his lawyer the true story behind his crime, a harrowing tale of a manipulating, soul-collecting demon named Crighton. The battle of good versus evil is timeless and Soul Seeker, the latest novel by award-winning author Kaylin McFarren, transforms the conventional conflict, combining shocking twists of horror with forbidden relationships, edgy levity, and cold-hearted experimentation – all within an extraordinary supernatural realm.

Wanting to write something very different from her popular psychological thrillers, McFarren  attributes turbulent cultural times and the global pandemic for leading her thoughts to the darker side of humanity, noting, "Like any artist, quite often the situation surrounding us impacts our emotions and is translated into our work."

Self-Publishing Review notes, "With layered prose and grand panoramas, Soul Seeker brings a dark world to vivid life, and fantasy fans will welcome this latest work by an imaginative author." Reader Views agrees stating, "McFarren is fearless when it comes to taking characters and situations to the brink and back. It's the edgy, supernatural thriller you've been looking for."
