Decline and Fall of Rowland Graves: A Devil's Luck Vignette

"What sort of person does these things?"

Young Doctor Rowland Graves has plans:
Begin his professorship at Oxford.
Marry his beloved Elinor Barlow.
Begin the life he's earned.

But someone has other plans for Rowland.
Plans to destroy everything he loves. Everything he's worked for.

He knows who they are.
And he is capable of terrible things.
They don't know him at all

The Decline and Fall of Rowland Graves is a traditional Gothic horror, a romantic tragedy befitting the Villain You Love to Hate from the pages of The Devil's Luck. This macabre, sensual tale can be read as a stand-alone story, or in any order with the other Skull & Crossbone Romances, but beware: here there are no heroes. No Happily Ever Afters. Only darkness. For mature readers only.
