Maura and Her Two Husbands
In this sexually charged novel, we meet Maura and Sidney, a young couple going through the motions of being in love as they climb the corporate ladder at their respective jobs. Their relationship is comfortable, but lacks excitement, until one day Maura comes home early and catches Sidney having sex with a man. Maura's reaction may surprise you as her emotions, fears, and repressed desires pull her into a very unusual arrangement.
The Butterfly Killer
Elliot Cross is a serial killer. His victims are about to achieve a long-sought goal or dream of a lifetime. Along comes Elliot to snatch their lives away at the cusp of their achievement. The victim might be a schoolboy about to take his driver's test or a woman about to give birth. All the victim has to do in Elliot's eyes is be more focused on themselves at the moment than Elliot's God. After all, Elliot's God says, thou shall put no other god's before me. And he has chosen Elliot to enforce that first commandment. So Elliot Cross says.
