Even as a child growing up in a small Southern city, Jon Wren frequently faced death. Before he’d even started school, he had played in the family parlor, where first an uncle, then a grandfather, lay in repose, their caskets positioned in front of the picture window. With their Instamatic cameras, several family members took photographs of well-dressed corpses. In his 30s, Jon fell in love with Ryan Armstrong. When you’re head over heels, who thinks of death? And when you make a commitment for the long haul, death feels remote. Something that happens to other people.

Though clearly meant for each other, Lance, an Air Force computer engineer, and Ryan, a former submariner in the Navy and now a military college professor, are conflicted gay men blinded by painful wounds of their past decisions. A younger Ryan Ball decides he can be happy only by conforming to social expectations.

Guinevere. Beautiful, intelligent, sensitive creatures all. And yet, despite their noble virtues, the three Chadwick women are cursed, it seems, for reasons only the occult can provide.
