Dark Rides

It’s a Gothic welcome-to-autumn thrill-ride featuring Morganville’s hottest newlyweds, Eve and Michael – written in the POV of Mrs. Eve Glass. It was probably inevitable I’d get around to writing about carnivals and Morganville, right? Yeah. I thought so, too. But this one is unique, even so, in that I have Michael and Eve off on a mission together, from Amelie. Hijinks and life-threatening danger may ensue. Also, a brand-new vampire character that I really need to explore more, because I liked him a lot. Fun factoid: I used to work in a haunted house – not a carnival but one of those seasonal death traps that was set up fast and taken down faster, run by virtual amateurs. Working as a character in them is fine for me, because I’m in on the mystery and the joke, but I am completely unable to handle haunted houses any other way as ‘fun’. They really do creep me out. Also, I got stuck in one of the secret passages of that seasonal haunted house once, and nobody notices or cares if you’re banging on the door and yelling for help when everyone is screaming already. (Yes, I intend to write that murder mystery, someday.)
