Moriarty and the Massacre of Mammon - new free novelette from Nyla Nox
I'm creating a tradition of giving away a free New Year's story every year.
This year's is a Sherlock Holmes pastiche set in 1915 that features Moriarty and Eminent Bankers in a terrible plot to finance the First World War - both sides of it.
Loosely based both on the character from the Sherlock Holmes stories and some too little known historic facts from the 'House of M', this is a sinister but darkly amusing tale, told with bitter wit by the 'Napoleon of Crime' himself - and he has nothing but sarcastic contempt for the 'ridiculous private detective'.

Eliza Gales interview out!
Thought provoking interview with Eliza Gales about Graveyards of the Banks. She is asking questions like: 'What would be the appropriate punishment for a corporate criminal'? Very tempting... Of course I answered with measure dignity...

"The atmosphere, brilliantly brought to life, is one that almost any temp worker in any one of today’s metropolises knows. The zero hours contracts, the threat of being not asked to come back constantly hanging over you, the never knowing if you’ll still have the job and the rent paid the following month...
This story is a hugely apt and relevant tale for us right now" Noel Maurice, indieberlin lit
“..Quite a few interviewees have described investment banks as abusive environments. But they seem to consider this an outcome, not an act of design. Nyla Nox thinks it's deliberate. [Her story] struck me as perhaps extreme, but reading her experiences perhaps she did see the beast in the eye.”
Joris Luyendijk, The Guardian.
“ Wow. This was an amazing, moving book. … You know how a show like The Office perfectly captured everyone you work with in an office setting? This book does that with the financial world, while at the same time making you feel like you’re walking through this financial hell with Dante.”

How many of these famous trilogies do you know?
Getting the material ready for the publisher of volume 2 'Monsters Arising' of 'Graveyards of the Banks' (volume 2! I've written a volume 2! I never thought I would do such a thing) we're looking at such vital trilogy ingredients as the 'what went before' section and how to do the right thing by both those who've read volume 1 (don't annoy with repetition) and those who are starting out fresh (what is absolutely vital for you to know?).
Of course I'm taking advice from the most famous trilogies in literature - see the goodreads list.
How many of those have you heard of?
How many have you read?
I'm in the company of giants...
