Spontaneous Combustion

A romantic tragedy with a twist of horror, Spontaneous Combustion blends genres to create a burning tale of emotion and intrigue.

Gordon's life has been transformed by the love he shares with Encarnita, but what fate brought together, it can also tear apart. When tragedy strikes, he is haunted by the past and begins to exhibit unusual behaviour. His mental health in question, he struggles to come to terms with what has happened, eventually finding closure in a finale stoked by revenge.

Written under the influence of Beethoven, this story is a stirring symphony of love, passion, grief and fury which will enthral readers until the final note.

Though a stand-alone story, Spontaneous Combustion is also the fourth in a series of short horror novels created to specific music. Called the Melodies of Madness Series, it also includes The Darkness Inside, Into the Depths, The Liquid Room and The Watcher. Each is available in Kindle and paperback formats and all five have been published in an anthology entitled Melodies of Madness.
