Villainy
Villainy, a gothic adventure with a fantasy twist is now published!
To the aristocratic Lord Charles, Baron of Hibourne, Richard is nothing but an illegitimate ne'er-do-well. To the rest of the world, he is a shadow along the dangerous Gloucester Road.
Armed with stolen pistols and a rapier-sharp wit, Richard demands his birthright by force. But a cunning earl, with the power of the Crown behind him, wants the estate for himself—and he's willing to murder anyone who stands in his way.
Forced into a desperate fight for his life, pursued on moonlit paths and through the depths of a mysterious wood, Richard hunts for the documents rumored to establish him as the heir he's always dreamed of being. The frantic search leads him deep into the hidden caverns below his father's ancestral home. There, alongside a resilient young lass, he discovers Hibourne's true guardian.
When your own blood disowns you and death waits around every turn, allies are sometimes found in the darkest places.
Written with the inspiration of Gothic classics such as Jamaica Inn by Daphne du Maurier, Villainy captures the airs and graces of a more gentile time, while under the surface, the characters' humanity plays out in darkness, as is our wont.
