Entry Wounds

A Supernatural Thriller

By: Brandon McNulty

Narrated by: Timothy Howard Jackson

Dexter meets Death Wish in this pulse-pounding, relentlessly fast-paced thriller from the author of Bad Parts.

ONE GUN. SIX BULLETS. NO CHOICE.

Ken Fujima, a downtrodden substitute teacher from suburban Pennsylvania, is trying to rebuild his life when his home is broken into by a pair of West Coast assassins. As part of a revenge scheme, they attack his wheelchair-bound father, forcing Ken to intervene.

During the scuffle Ken picks up a mysterious revolver to defend himself. What he soon learns is that the revolver is a cursed yakuza weapon that will remain fused to his hand until he either dies or kills six other people.

Tormented by this gruesome ultimatum, Ken teams up with his estranged brother, a recovering heroin addict, in hopes of targeting drug dealers responsible for recent overdoses among his high school students.

As hours tick away and other murderous opportunities arise, Ken strives to remain moral, but the haunted revolver has other ideas - if he won’t decide who dies, the gun will.

Critic reviews

“An action-packed, surprise-filled, outrageously thrilling novel!” (Jeff Strand, author of Wolf Hunt)

“Entry Wounds is a harrowing supernatural thriller filled with shootouts, bloodshed, betrayal - and best of all, a cursed revolver.” (Jeremy Bates, author of Suicide Forest and The Sleep Experiment)

“Clever and gripping, Entry Wounds is a tour de force that moves as fast as the bullets from the cursed gun within its pages.” (Robert Swartwood, USA Today best-selling author of The Serial Killer's Wife)

A Solid Supernatural Thriller

As with several other reviews, I have also followed the author's advice on his YT channel. After establishing credibility with me, I purchased the book. Supernatural anything is not really my bailiwick, but I do enjoy the psychological thrillers.
While I expected a different ending, I would be extremely proud of this were my novel.
McNulty writes well, the reader will readily relate to the protagonist, and the supernatural aspect really only relates to the gun in question, sort of like many Asian type horror films where a particular object is cursed.
The narrator can be difficult to handle at first, especially if you are used to Scott Brick, Edoardo Ballerini, and the like. But his pacing and tone fits well with the story. My only criticism is that someone ought to have caught it when he pronounced Wilkes-Barre as, 'Wilkes- Bear.'

An action packed and engaging thriller. Could not stop listening to it.

A great and entertaining thriller. It had me anxious to get out of work so that I might be able to continue reading it. Hope there are more to come

Fantastic thriller

Really enjoyed this one! Watched a ton of the authors YouTube videos on writing and finally got around to listening to his books … totally worth it! One of my favorite in the genre!

Engaging from beginning to end

This story kept me interested all the way through, wondering what would happen next. The characters are all put together well, and the plot has some good surprises.

Another Masterpiece from Good Old Brandon McNulty!

This audio book hits all the right notes. Innovative story, fantastic prose, and the perfect narration to bring the characters to life. McNulty earned his spurs with Bad Parts, and Entry Wounds is a great followup. He packs a punch with a fast-paced yet tight narrative that'll feed you your own guts and leave you begging for seconds.
