Announcing the imminent publication of my first novel, *The Black Robe of Flanders* [1]

['This Content Is Not Subject To Review Daily Kos Staff Prior To Publication.']

Date: 2023-10-03  

Remember how I said last winter that I was writing a novel? Remember how I said I was taking six months off to write it? Remember how I said I’d let everyone know when it was done? Well. It’s done and ready for pre-order!!!!

Entitled The Black Robe of Flanders, it’s romantic suspense published as part of Ari McKay’s “Carnival of Mysteries” m/m romance series. It’s coming out on October 18th and is available for pre-order on Amazon.com right now. As for what it’s about: It’s the summer of 1936. Europe is at peace. Prosperity is beginning to return after the long, hungry years of the Great Depression, and new leaders have brought fresh ideas and what might actually be hope to country after country. People have enough money to spend at the shops, the cafes, even the shabby little kermesse that goes from town to town.

Life is good again, or will be soon….

Valentine Ford is a foreign correspondent who’s been on the Continent for almost a decade. He sees the warning signs of trouble to come, the cracks beginning to form in the happy facade, but no one will listen….

Alexander Skavadale is a covert agent who’s been on the job since the Great War. He’s heard rumors of trouble brewing, of rare artifacts disappearing to further a diabolical plan that no one can quite explain….

Two men from different worlds.

Two men with a common goal.

Two men facing an enemy they cannot imagine, forced to work together to stop a plot that could seal the fate of Europe, and the world, for generations to come.
