  “[An] engrossing blend of romance and gothic mystery. The suspense is well done in a fine story line with plenty of unpredictable twists and turns.” —Midwest Book Review 
   
  Damaris Gordon shuddered at the thought of working for the cruel and bitter Master of Blacktower—but her father’s death left her no choice. Suddenly her fate—her life itself—was in the black silk-gloved hands of Gavin Hamilton, a man scarred and tortured by an unspoken past, whose mocking laughter echoes through his ancient Scottish estate. Damaris has heard the whispers that accuse Gavin Hamilton of his wife’s death and his young daughter’s crippling injury. But the pain and sadness barely hidden behind his blazing dark stare touch Damaris deeply—and a courageous heart is luring her to the estate’s topmost tower in search of his dangerous secrets.

  "The Lodger" by Marie Belloc Lowndes is a suspenseful novel written in the early 20th century. The story centers around Robert and Ellen Bunting, a struggling couple living in a modest home in London, whose lives are forever changed when they take in a peculiar lodger named Mr. Sleuth. The Buntings are on the brink of poverty, and while Mr. Sleuth seems like a potential solution to their financial woes, his enigmatic demeanor and deep interest in dark subjects create an unsettling atmosphere. 
  The novel introduces the Buntings in their dreary living conditions, emphasizing their economic struggles and emotional turmoil. Mr. Bunting is portrayed as a somewhat dull man trying to maintain his dignity despite their impending financial disaster, while Mrs. Bunting grapples with despair over their situation. Their lives take a dramatic turn when a series of brutal murders, attributed to a figure known as "The Avenger," begin to plague the city, coinciding with Mr. Sleuth's arrival and his odd behavior. 
  The couple's initial relief at securing a lodger sharply contrasts with the growing suspense surrounding Mr. Sleuth and the violent events occurring outside their home. This creates an atmosphere of intrigue and tension as they navigate their precarious circumstances.

  "I am Blake Fire will be filling in for Argent as Romeo, He is on pressing business which he deserves" Blake announced.

  "I'm Julius Caesar," an actor said, "I'm on, bye, Brutus!" 
  "Kill you later," said Blake smiling.
