Gaming the System: The Collected Adventures of Ross Fulton

by Leighton Connor

Ted knocks on an apartment door in a small town in Ohio, looking for the legendary occult detective Ross Fulton. Instead he finds a bitter disaster of a man who lives in squalor and plays video games all day. Together the two of them tackle a string of bizarre cases, including a ghost in the kitchenware aisle of a department store, an interdimensional invasion at America’s largest gaming convention, and a murder amidst a charming group of apocalyptic cultists. But which is the true Ross Fulton, the brilliant detective or the lazy, selfish jerk? Both, it turns out. Gaming the System collects five thrilling adventures of Ross the short stories "The Rosamund Trap," "The Flaxman's Anomaly," and "The Shattered Soul," and the novellas The MarmiCon Conundrum and The Nihilist's Curse. Taken together, they tell the definitive story of Ohio’s greatest occult detective.
