      1890’s London was a time when magic was everywhere and steam mixed with the fog in the sky, and it was a world Detective Keagen Gillette welcomed as he returned home from a guilt-stricken voyage to America. Desperate to start his life fresh, he is haunted by the images of those he left behind; his friends he couldn’t bring himself to face, and his twin sister who was lost due to his inability to permanently bring her back from death. However, when he saw a man create a blizzard in the middle of summer, he knew it was time to push the past away and begin to fight for the future. Joined by his loyal companions; a master magician named Elizabeth Sterling, a military spy-hunter specializing in illusions Alexader Truseau, and a woman who has taken a vow to protect the world from darkness, Amelia Helstrom-Petri, together the four of them must stop the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse, prevent the Harlot Queen of Babylon from feeding the army of hell, and defeat the Light Bringer himself; Lucifer. Failure is not an option, as the fate of not just London, but the whole world rests on their success.

      Many years before the events in "The Light Rises" the characters led very different lives. Elizabeth was born into a world that would not accept her. Alexander found his flower and wished never to let her go, though his duties caused him to lose her forever. Amelia and Enrico were two teenagers who found themselves at the wrong place, at the wrong time, and were brought into a world that would become their life. Keagan was an investigator who only wanted to stop a killer from striking again, only to lose his beloved twin to the killer, vowing to bring her back. This collection of short stories follows the lives of the characters from "The Light Rises", and how things were before they came together.

    I've been writing since I was really young, and have always wanted to actually get a book published. I've participated and completed NANOWRIMO the last several years and look forward to doing so again as a way to complete other projects.I live in Kent, Washington with my boyfriend, cats Thoth, and new kitten Osiris, and my snake named Tim (and yes, that is a Monty Python reference). We are happy to welcome Osiris into our home after losing Alik in October of 2013.When I'm doing my day job, I'm also working hard on getting my other writing projects finished so that the whole story can be told.
