ECHOES OF THE ETHERSTONE is a standalone gothic horror/fantasy story available now from Owl Talyn Press.

Main character Elizabetha (Beth) Estamore (artwork by Mary Violin Art).

What if Jack the Ripper had been controlled by a god?

The city of Alpinside follows the law of the EtherFather, a god whose control over the kingdom of Estra dictates the lives of the people in it: men lead, women obey; nobles thrive, commoners serve. But the EtherFather’s reign is being challenged by the EtherMother, a goddess he imprisoned long ago and whose powers he has been harnessing for the benefit of his noble followers. And so, he has chosen a man to do his bidding and to ensure that his hold over Estra remains…

Main character Ellana (El) Stone (artwork by Mary Violin Art).

ELIZABETHA (Beth) lives a seemingly perfect life of luxury in the city of Alpinside, until she meets ELLANA (El), a young woman from the slums whose father was murdered by the Scrubbers’ Stalker, the ruthless killer haunting the city.

Thrown together by the dreadful deaths, they decide to investigate. The catch? The evidence begins to point towards Beth’s brother as the Stalker. Their friendship is tested as they begin to discover far deeper secrets than either of them were prepared for, uncovering a rotten truth at the very core of Alpinside.
