About Mike Dellosso
I am a Christian author who writes outside-the-box, thought-provoking suspense.

Check out my Website at MikeDellosso.com and visit my blog at Wide-Eyed Fiction Blog.

My books include:

THE HUNTED, named one of TheSuspenseZone.com's "Reviewer's Choice" Top 10 Books of 2008.

SCREAM, named "Best Christian Thriller of 2009" by Deena Peterson (A Peek at My Bookshelf).

And coming May 4, 2010 . . . DARLINGTON WOODS . . .

"Dellosso never disappoints, and DARLINGTON WOODS is no exception. With spine-tingling suspense and Dellosso's trademark spiritual message that lingers long after the last page, DARLINGTON WOODS joins THE HUNTED and SCREAM as must-read chillers.

Hi, Mike! So happy to meet another author here at Shoutlife!


I'm looking forward to getting to know you better as I learn more about you and your work.

When you get a minute, I hope you'll pop over to my Shoutlife profile and my web site to see what the good Lord has had me doing since He convinced me to trade my guitar and microphone for a computer.

I pray that He will shower you and those you love with abundant joy and amazing success!

Big warm hugs to you, my new Shoutlife friend!


Eyes on Him,
(1 Corinthians 10:13)
