Description:
Dorian Lake spent years cornering
the Baltimore hex-crafting market, using his skills at the hermetic arts to
exact karmic justice for those whom the system has failed. He keeps his magic
clean and free of soul-corrupting Netherwork, thus avoiding both the karmic
blow-back of his practice and the notice of the Presidium, a powerful cabal of
practitioners that polices the esoteric arts in America. However, when an
unscrupulous Netherworker interferes with both his business and his personal
life, Dorian’s disarming charisma and hermetic savvy may not be enough to keep
his soul out of jeopardy.

his soul out of jeopardy.
His rival, a soul monger named
Neil Osterhaus, wouldn’t be such a problem were it not for Carmen, Dorian’s
captivating ex-lover. After two years’ absence Carmen arrives at Dorian’s
doorstep with a problem: she sold her soul to Osterhaus, and has only two weeks
to buy it back. Hoping to win back Carmen’s affections, Dorian must find a
replacement soul without tainting his own. As Dorian descends into the shadows
of Baltimore’s underworld, he must decide how low he is willing to stoop in
order to save Carmen from eternal damnation… with the Presidium watching,
waiting for him to cross the line.

About The
Author:
Author:
I am a storyteller,
eager to transport the reader to strange yet familiar worlds. My writing is dark,
fantastical, at times stretching the limits of the human experience, and other
times hinting at the monsters lurking under your bed. I write science fiction,
urban fantasy, horror, and several shades in between.
I am a husband and a
father, living in the “wine country” of central Maryland. I’m surrounded by
grapevines and cows. During the day I commute to Baltimore, and somehow manage
to escape each afternoon with only minor scrapes and bruises. I am also a
homebrewer and a certified beer judge. My avocations dovetail nicely!
