by Erastes
Readers of Erastes' newest historical novel should prepare themselves for many pages of suspenseful intrigue as the miscreant Harry George Alexander Bircham, a man of Wildean excesses and humours, will do anything it takes to bend Fate to his will. And that sinister will is to keep the affections and attentions of another young English lad of wealth and means. If accidents, if murder, are necessary, then Bircham is just the villain. Or anti-hero, as he is quite the early twentieth-century charmer.
Paperback, 252 pages

"Erastes's newest novel is a coup de maître, a masterful gay thriller set in the 1920s with plenty of black humor." - Steve Berman, author, editor and Shirley Jackson Award finalist
"If there can be such a thing as too much fun, this is probably it. It’s Hamlet in white tie and flapper dresses, relocated to the country-house circuit between the wars; but nobody quite acts out the roles laid down for them. This is just too good to miss.” —Chaz Brenchley, winner of the August Derleth Award and author of Bitter Waters
