The Raven's Tale
Cat Winters
"Winters's smart, silvery, slithering prose finds beauty in the grotesque―and what is art if not that?" ―Daniel Kraus, co-author of the New York Times bestseller The Shape of Water
"A darkly delicious tale that's sure to haunt readers forevermore." ―Kerri Maniscalco, #1 New York Times and USA Today bestselling author of the Stalking Jack the Ripper series
Seventeen-year-old Edgar Poe counts down the days until he can escape his foster family--the wealthy Allans of Richmond, Virginia. He hungers for his upcoming life as a student at the prestigious new university, almost as much as he longs to marry his beloved Elmira Royster. However, on the brink of his departure, all his plans go awry when a macabre Muse named Lenore appears to him. Muses are frightful creatures that lead Artists down a path of ruin and disgrace, and no respectable person could possibly understand or accept them. But Lenore steps out of the shadows with one request: "Let them see me!"
