A half-zythian bard gets caught up in an affair with the Duchess of Highlake. The Duke wants him dead and our hero is forced to flee through a forest that no one has ever returned from.
Hubert L. Mullins is a novelist of horror, historical suspense, and the supernatural. His work blends real-world history with creeping dread, often exploring what hides in the dark corners of the past. He is the author of Blood & Salt, a reimagining of the Titanic disaster infused with gothic terror, as well as Under Bethel, The Last Library, and Breath of Mars.
A lifelong storyteller with an eye for the eerie and a love of claustrophobic, character-driven tension, Mullins crafts books where setting becomes antagonist and survival is never guaranteed. His work has attracted readers across the horror and dark fantasy spectrum—and is now being positioned for screen adaptation.
