Book Tour: London in the Dark

Image
London, 1910 Budding Private Detective Cyril Arlington Hartwell has a conundrum. London is being ravaged by the largest run of thefts in recent history. His hunch that it is all tied together may put him and those he loves in more danger than he could have reckoned. Olivia Larken Hartwell is just home from boarding school for the summer anticipating time with her adoring parents.She misses her absent brother, Cyril, hoping for the day he will finally come home. But tragedy strikes, causing upheaval for all concerned and changes her life in a way she never could have imagined. Olivia, Cyril, and their friends must bring the hidden to light, seek to execute justice, and dispel the darkness that hovers over London… and their hearts.        Ok, I'll admit it, I don't really like the historical genre, anything set in the past is sort of "meh" usually for me, I was hoping this book would surprise me and change my mind, but it didn't.     ...

THE 5 PART WRITING SPECIAL | part 4: supporting characters

Image
          ONCE AGAIN THIS IS FOR MORE SCIENCE FICTION OR FANTASY, SO SORRY FOR THE QUESTIONS I AM GOING TO SKIM. I have a lot of side characters, but today I am introducing Andres's family, since I can't even make up my mind about my other side characters' names.      Introduce your side characters, explain what makes them unique, and perhaps include their relationship to the MC ^^Andres's aesthetic              Andres’s family is a family of eight, counting his parents, his grandmother, his four siblings: (Makayla, fourteen years. Coleen, nine years. Jacquie, nine years as well since her and Coleen are twins. And May, six years). and himself.                 Andres and his siblings are homeschooled by their grandmother, and Andre works at his grandmother’s store.      ...

She’s been trying to escape her past for 100 years… Born with unexplainable abilities he struggles to control, college student Ion tries desperately to integrate into his new school and finally put his dark past behind him. But after making a serious e...
