In Vacuo
$10.99 online at Bookshop.org
Henry arrives at Dr Robertson Hammond's vast estate with his pregnant mother one rain-soaked night. After a sudden tragedy he is orphaned and becomes the enigmatic doctor's ward. Locals call Hammond an alchemist or a murderer. Henry cannot get answers about his mother's death, why the household is sent away on the anniversary, or the wild woman who roams the woods whispering names of the dead. As years pass he explores Bald Mountain and the towers he climbs with Xavier, until Hammond's research is uncovered and Henry must choose in a way that will affect everyone he loves and may change reality itself. A queer gothic coming-of-age about ghosts of the past and the obsessive pursuit of immortality.
