Beside a Black Tarn

When Shax stumbles across rumors of an experimental house that responds to the occupant's brain functions, creating scenarios to please and delight, naturally he wants to steal it. While stealing an entire house sounds impossible, the demon prince has a cunning plan.But a night at the ballet heralds the return of a troubled and hunted Julian Parallax. He brings ominous news to whisper in Shax's ear and forces Ness to battle a new emotion - raging jealousy. With nefarious plots in the background and an overabundance of Poe references, even Shax's scheming may not be enough to get the Brimstone crew out alive this time.
