"The Victims in the Willows" - Now Available!

Boating. Picnics. Murder.

Just another tranquil day in Willowdell.

"The Victims in the Willows," Book One of the Riverbank Dreadfuls, is an imaginative collision of the worlds of Arthur Conan Doyle and Kenneth Grahame; of Holmes & Watson and Rat & Mole; of serenity and horror; of light and shadow.

Join Ratty and Moley as they pursue the culprit of a grisly double-murder, racing against the clock before an innocent animal pays a bloody price.

The book is available in THREE formats!

The PAPERBACK and KINDLE edition are available on Amazon HERE.

The handmade, deluxe, limited edition hardcover is available only on my ETSY store (link HERE).

These books are painstakingly hand-stitched, bound and pressed one at a time, each copy requiring a full day for manufacture.

The inside covers are hand-detailed with (what I assure you are) fake blood stains. The front of each book bears the author's painted insignia, and each copy is signed by the author.

Every edition of the book features illustrations by JJ MacLeod and Jaylene Chung.

"I'm a haberdasher, not a hero!"
Our narrator, Ormond Sacker Molentine, illustrated by JJ MacLeod

"We have until nightfall; then death and madness have jurisdiction."
Our hero, Sherrinford Hope-Ratch Arvikohl, illustrated by JJ MacLeod

"I can endure anything apart from exercise and sobriety."
Concept art for Cecil T Buphon, esq. by Peter Hamilton

These colorful characters and several others are waiting for you in the pages of "The Victims in the Willows."

We'll see you on the riverbank.

Boston Comic Con

Fan Expo Boston 2018 has just now concluded.

There we released the hand-made first edition of "The Victims in the Willows."

 

It's time to get back in the workshop and start binding more copies. I'm also currently working on making it available on Amazon (and possibly as an ebook).

To stay posted on when these versions become available I recommend following me on Twitter: @zoenecrosis and on Instagram: @zoenecrosis

Welcome to Willowdell...

I've been working on something for a while now, and I'm publishing it this year.

If you've ever seen a single thing I've worked on or created, you'll have seen the work of my long-time collaborator, Peter; and I can't wait to show you the illustrations he's been making for this project.

I have been keeping this pretty close to the vest for a long time, and only two other people apart from myself know the title.

But very soon everyone will be invited to visit a special place I call 'Willowdell'...

See you there...
