Blue Violin

EKKO Trilogy #3

by Johnny Walker

Combining storytelling with abandoned theaters seems to be a recipe for success, at least for those who enjoy delving into the unknown. But CJ’s not in charge of this show, and it’s a whole new set of rules. Finding other humans who share his passion is enlightening, but he can’t seem to break the ice and reveal his secret; that he has what they’re searching for. There’s been a breakthrough in his love hate relationship with the spirit world, but the electrifying step thrusts CJ disturbingly close to those who want a piece of his hide. The spirit world has done all it can do; now it’s up to CJ to decipher the clues and set them in motion. The time has come for the ultimate showdown and this is one ancient battle that cannot be avoided.

About the author

Johnny Walker is a musician turned soundman turned storyteller. He has received two Billboard Songwriting Citations and been published in Global entertainment trades. Johnny grew up in the Southwest, sneaking into the den late at night to watch old movies. Having spent most of his youth playing music on the road, he ‘settled down’ in New York City and became submersed in live theater and music venues, this time performing A/V duties from the sound booth. After three decades of entertainment mayhem, Johnny has taken his experiences and transformed them into a fantasy-based trilogy. His writing is heavily influenced from authors ranging from Neil Gaiman to Patricia Highsmith to Orson Scott Card. He lives in New York City where he avidly volunteers and tries not to wake his Wheaton Terrier, Ella, when he sneaks into the den late at night. First published in 2006, Johnny completed the EKKO Trilogy in May of 2015.

The ghosts in EKKO have a variety of interesting personalities. The living display all the foibles of humanity. Blending these with the past and present was intriguing. "Blue Violin" brought everything together in a fast-moving pace.
