Silk and Feather

The two novellas in this book explore otherworldly attractions in dark and gothic tones.

A Shadow of Red Silk tells the story of Adrian who, sick and penniless, is forced to accept the hospitality of his ruthless cousin. Adrian is completely alone; his only hope that his end will be swift. But there are surprises in the dark, hostile house

The second novella, A Crimson Feather, has resident tough cop Rook Larson on the hunt for an antiques dealer. When Rook finds Azriel injured in an alleyway, he feels compelled to help him. As their relationship deepens, and Rook investigates the perpetrator of Azriel's attack, he discovers the dealer collects more than just hard-to-find antiques and that some things are above price.
