Charming Mayhem: A Six Guns and Sorcery Omnibus
Charming Mayhem brings you four novellas in a steam-powered alternative world
The brutal murders of both British and Fae nobility send ripples of shock through the British Empire. As the body count rises, the delicate peace between humans and Fae threatens to break. Special Agent Arkady Bloom races to solve the mystery, pitted against not only a mysterious murderer, but a shadowy organization threatening the Empire itself.
When a storm damages a rail bridge over the Platte River, a disparate group of travelers find themselves stranded in a ghost town on the Nebraska prairie. Will they unravel the mystery of the missing townsfolk and survive to tell the tale, or fall victim to the monster haunting and hunting in the ruins,
Special Agent Arkady Bloom becomes embroiled with a deadly Italian spy, Turkish airship pirates, rebels bent on freeing India from British rule, a cursed artifact, and a statuesque sorceress with a steam-powered dragonet. However, the greatest danger Bloom faces may be his own torn loyalties.
When multiple families vanish under mysterious circumstances and the sheriff investigating is driven insane, disgraced ex-U.S. Marshal Jefferson Stottlemyre is called back into federal service. Now Stottlemyre, aided by his old friends Deputy Marshal William Blenchy and British Secret Service Agent Lady Priscilla Talbot, must unravel the mystery of who – or what – is murdering settlers around Binger, Oklahoma Territory.
