A prophetess steals from the Boatman of the Dead to regain her powers. A god who has never known human emotion falls in love. Guilt, fear, passion and revenge ripple through this collection of dark tales shrouded in a darker love story.
The river Styx separates the living from the underworld. To cross it, the dead must pay the ferryman. Some are lucky, buried with coins on their eyelids to buy their passage. Some arrive unprepared. For them, their coin is their story; the confession of who they were, how they lived, the regrets and guilt they carry, how they died.
Dark tales laden with great, secret power. But someone knows their secret. And she's come to claim their power for her own.
For three thousand years the careless gift of a long ago god kept her alive. Alive, but ageing. Withering. Until she was nothing but a husk, sealed into a bottle, like a genie in a stoppered lamp. The god's gift kept her alive, but it is the memory of the fear she use to wreak, and the power it gave her, for which she has lived.
That and the desire to feel it again.
Find all your favourite tales by the Queen of Creepy, F.K. Marlowe, here: the body horror of Calyptra Mortiferum with its vampire moths, and the psychological torment of Buried, where hidden guilt comes back with a bite. The Monster, The Hollow and The Warehouse are all waiting for you, along with five brand new tales of murder, obsession and death.
Feast on this collection of horror stories, wrapped up in a fairytale romance darker than the river that flows through the underworld.
