Synopsis

Books 1 and 2 of the acclaimed, award winning series, A Demon's Story, now joined in a single Omnibus Edition. 

BOOK 1 - FREDERICK (A Warm Place to Call Home), 18+ Adult Content: 

Frederick is a demon living life to the fullest…except, it’s other people’s lives. 

KIRKUS REVIEWS calls it “A well-spun, engaging...supernatural tale...with a devilishly ambiguous ending.” 

DESCRIPTION: 
His name's Frederick, he takes over bodies, and he doesn't give a [poop] what you think of him, or so he claims. For every boast of his unforgivable acts, redeeming qualities never seem too far behind. 

Frederick's a loner (he's the only demon he's ever met), and though the past thirty years of aimless debauchery—swapping bodies at will—have been more than a little enjoyable, he feels compelled toward a change of pace. He wants a warm place to call home for a time, and a woman to settle down with. 

Returning to Maryland, the place of his "birth", Frederick has no trouble finding what he seeks, but fate appears disinclined to pardon a lifetime of wickedness. Though our antihero finds love, he's also confronted by an adversary who appears to know more about Frederick than he knows himself. 

BOOK 2 - SAMUEL (The Many Lives of Samuel Beauchamp), 18+ Adult Content: 

Samuel Beauchamp has been dead for twenty-seven years, but that hasn't stopped him from living... 

In this prequel to the highly acclaimed novel A Warm Place to Call Home (a demon's story) by Michael Siemsen, the bestselling author turns back the clock--from post-WWI California to late 1950's New York City. 

For reasons unknown to him, Samuel's essence remained after his body was killed, and he discovers that the living emit an irresistible force, drawing him inside where he has the power to take over. 

After surviving the great depression in the body of a young hobo, Samuel spends years studying the history of his condition, moving from body to body when necessary, and finally settling in New York City in the late 1950's. Following a few years of relative serenity, his beautiful and brash girlfriend disappears, and his search for her uncovers answers to questions he never asked.
