Cassandra Wyvern wants to be seduced. Her uncouth partner, Simeon Danton, has made it obvious that he's only with her until someone better comes along. Her friend suggests manifesting such a man, neither realizing that she was about to visit an apothecary shop hidden deep in ancient woodland on the England/Wales border or that its owner, the occultist Lucius d'Orléans—a man born in the 11th century—was about to enter her life.

British author Adam Nicke - a writer more associated with Dark Romanticism and Gothic literature - has here taken the insanity of 2016-2020 and transformed it into an absurd and chaotic comic romp through the world of con artists and quackery in 18th century Wales. Mallard the Quack plunges the listener into the world of body-snatchers, fairground sideshows, medieval superstitions, quack doctors…and haunted furniture!

To be unwanted and unloved can cause such pain that our search for salvation can lead us to the most unlikely places - and into the arms of the strangest people. What if one such quest found only an imaginary friend? Is the character of Sebastian in Temptation and Denial just an imaginary friend or something more - something supernatural?

Ten haunting tales of the ghostly, decadent, and supernatural by Adam Nicke, author of Temptation and Denial. Written in the style of late 19th century masters of the macabre, each weirdly twisting tale is haunted by characters confronting their inner turmoil and the dark recesses of the soul. Escape the modern age and let the lush, sensuous language in this audio wash over you as gently as the crimson hues of twilight on an early Autumn evening.
