Sinossi

Some doors should never be opened… 
 
Single father Scott Dawson’s life is shattering.  
 
His construction business has failed. After discovering Scott’s infidelity, his wife Holly has disappeared without a trace, and his only hope is that she’ll return. 
 
With their mom missing and presumed dead, Scott’s children are coming unhinged. His teenage son Hudson lashes out, growing angrier by the day. And their younger daughter Hazel retreats into a world of her own — and claims to hear her mother’s voice.  
 
Clinging to the futile hope that Holly might still return, Scott is teaching his traumatized kids to dodge the foreclosure notices.  
 
So when he sees his young daughter in the front yard talking to a man in an expensive suit, Scott’s convinced it can’t get any worse. 
 
But the man claims to represent his wife’s long-lost uncle, and offers Scott the opportunity of a lifetime. 
 
Will this mysterious stranger bring answers and wealth beyond Scott’s wildest dreams, or an ancient terror he and his children can’t escape?

BLADE & BASTARD: Wireframe...

Kumo Kagyu

Scorch marks blacken the wireframe dungeon, and the smell of burnt meat hangs in the air. Iarumas’s party stumbles upon a corpse, more charcoal than flesh, and Raraja insists on dragging it out. Murmur—Chant—Pray—Invoke. A large-framed girl named Berkanan gulps the fresh air of her second chance at life. Her confidence is low and her skills as a fledgling mage are inadequate, but despite all that, she has a serious goal—kill the red dragon that burned her party alive. This dragon, an interloper from the lower levels of the dungeon, has become so notorious that even the most seasoned parties refuse to engage. Even so, Garbage and Raraja agree to aid Berkanan, and Iarumas lends his support. The chances of failure are high, but in the dungeon, immolation is not a permanent end...as long as someone is willing to pay. Can Iarumas’s party douse the flames of the dragon, or will they all succumb to a menacing red death?
