The long anticipated third novel in the
Adrien English series finds the “ill-starred and bookish” mystery writer and bookseller battling demons—maybe literally. After bookstore clerk Angus flees following terrifying death threats, Adrien must contend with a mysterious Satanic cult, a hot and handsome university professor, and his on-again/off-again relationship with closeted LAPD Homicide Detective Jake Riordan. And, oh, yes, murder.... PRAISE FOR THE
ADRIEN ENGLISH SERIES. “Written in a terse and laconic style, this is an exciting and entertaining read.” —Colin Spencer, gaytimes on

A DANGEROUS THING “The second
Adrien English murder mystery,
A Dangerous Thing, is a likable, fast-paced detective story featuring a gay bookseller/novelist turned amateur sleuth. Enjoyable enough to have fans old and new clamoring for a third.” —Gary M. Kramer, Lambda Book Report on
