This novel is very different, and like no other you have ever read. Although the cover design, by itself, is explanatory, the reader will find, below, a quote from a brief section at the beginning of the book called "e; A Note To The Reader."e; (Maybe it should be called, "e;A Warning To The Reader!"e;) [The novel] "e;. . . connects people and elements which would never be found together--except here: hookers in their bawdy den, an opera and an orchestra in their ivory tower, miners in their subterranean lair, a skeleton, a corpse, musicians and divas (and divos), sheriffs, the bordello, the cutthroats, and the loveble rogues--all mashed together in a tale of intrigue, horror, and suspense."e; The book is approximately 400 pages in length.
