Blind Devotion: A Tale of the Van Meter Visitor

Systema Paradoxa #24

by Ty Drago

It’s hard to catch a break when you’re the son of the town drunk. But one bright glimmer keeps Hank going: Alexandra Harrer, the orphaned niece of the richest woman in town. Not that their friendship didn’t make things harder than they already were, but Alex softened the rough edges of his life. Most of the time.
Until she made an unexpected visit to his hidey hole one night, begging him for help.
When Alex vanishes soon after, along with her pet—an ancient creature she begged him to keep secret—Hank lands in jail. Blamed for her disappearance, he’s torn between confessing all and keeping faith.
But in the end, Blind Devotion wins out.
