Description: Rebecca in the House of Usher (with touches of Sunset Boulevard) ...
Shadow Black will appeal not just to fans of Tom Arden's five volume
fantasy series The Orokon but to anyone with a liking for Golden Age
Hollywood, 1950s pulp science fiction, contemporary fantasy, social
comedy and gothic horror. England, 1955, and Harriet Locke accepts an
invitation to the seaside mansion of Shadow Black where she looks
forward to joining her fiancé Mark Vardell, the handsome avant-garde
artist who is painting the reclusive Lord Harrowblest. Her life is about
to change, and change forever, in a household of bizarre characters
bound together by ties of deceit, lust and half-truths.
