Man of Shadow and Mist
Book II in the Of Monsters and Men Series
The first time I met Dracula was on a dark summer night in an old showboat on the Mississippi River. That’s where the University of Minnesota Players used to perform and introduced me to Bram Stoker’s most famous piece. The mysterious anti-hero intrigued me to no end.
So here I am, penning a tribute to Stoker and his shadow of the night with my latest release, Man of Shadow and Mist and today is launch day.
England, 1890
Vampires are alive and well in North Yorkshire, leastwise in the minds of the uneducated. Librarian Rosa Edwards intends to drive a stake through the heart of such superstitions. But gossip flies when the mysterious Sir James Morgan returns to his shadowy manor. The townsfolk say he is cursed.
James hates everything about England. The weather. The rumours. The scorn. Yet he must stay. His mother is dying of a disease for which he’s desperately trying to find a cure—an illness that will eventually take his own life.
When Rosa sets out to prove the dark gossip about James is wrong, she discovers more questions than answers. How can she accept what she can’t explain—especially the strong allure of the enigmatic man? James must battle a town steeped in fear as well as the unsettling attraction he feels for the no-nonsense librarian.
Can love prevail in a town filled with fear and doubt?
