The Mystery of the Curiosities

By C.S. Poe
The Mystery of the Curiosities by C.S. Poe digital book - Fable

Publisher Description

Life has been great for Sebastian Snow. The Emporium is thriving and his relationship with NYPD homicide detective, Calvin Winter, is everything he's ever wanted. With Valentine's Day around the corner, Sebastian's sole concern is whether Calvin would enjoy a romantic date. It's only when an unknown assailant smashes the Emporium's window and leaves a peculiar note behind that all holiday plans get pushed aside in favor of another mystery.

 

Sebastian is quickly swept up in a series of grisly yet seemingly unrelated murders. The only connection tying the deaths together are curiosities from the lost museum of P.T. Barnum. Despite Calvin's attempts to keep Sebastian out of the investigation, someone is forcing his hand, and it becomes apparent that the entire charade exists for Sebastian to solve. But with each clue that brings him closer to the killer, he's led deeper into Calvin's official cases.

 

It's more than just Sebastian's livelihood and relationship on the line—it's his very life.
