A Whisper In The Dark: Getting Some Rework

My first novella, which I self-published back in 2013 (and later unpublished in 2023), is getting a pass through Grammarly. And wow… did it need it. When I self-published that story, it was a vanity project. It should never have been put out there for people to read, let alone buy and read.

I am giving the story a reworking, doing extensive rewrites everywhere to adjust prose and tone, and getting another chapter added at the end. It is also getting the Grammarly spelling, punctuation, and grammar check. In the future, I may offer the story as a free download. So, if interested in getting your hands on the story, keep a future eye on this website, or at my publisher over at Calvert Press.

Here is the back cover of the book:

In Tulle-sur-Mer, secrets are dark and best left forgotten. When a Queen’s agent arrives with a protected man traveling under a false name, the Blue Sparrow Inn seems a convenient refuge from the night.

But all is not what it seems.

Beneath the floorboards waits a passage into catacombs that should not exist: bone-dry corridors, blood-dark stone, and a presence of thieves, killers… and something older than the city itself.

In the dark, every footstep is a promise.
And every whisper might be a warning… or a lure.
