About: The Perilous Legacies Series

Some stories are inherited. Others are waiting for us.

Perilous Legacies is a Gothic suspense series exploring the uneasy territory between history and folklore, memory and identity, the rational and the impossible. Across generations and continents, old families carry secrets that refuse to remain buried—and the people who inherit them must decide whether the past determines who they become or whether its stories can still be rewritten.

Blending Gothic mystery, psychological suspense, folklore, romance, dark academia, and speculative elements, the series follows characters drawn together by an ancient legacy whose origins are far older—and stranger—than any of them imagined.

At its heart, Perilous Legacies asks a deceptively simple question:

Do we make stories, or do stories make us?

The Path of Three

Available Very Soon!

For six weeks, someone has been sending Gothic literature professor Lark Able white tulips—flowers that remind her of the worst day of her life. When the gifts escalate into stalking and her graduate assistant disappears, an invitation to Blackthorn Hall, the ancestral English estate of an old Oxford friend, offers both refuge and a mystery worth solving.

But Blackthorn has been keeping secrets for centuries.

As Lark investigates the legend of the People of the Hill and the mysterious death of an American heiress who looks disturbingly like her, she discovers that the past has been waiting for three families to return—and she wasn't invited to Blackthorn to solve its story.

She was brought there to complete it.

The Unlocked Gate - Coming Fall 2027

The ritual at Blackthorn Hall is over—but the path it opened may never have closed.

As Lark, Seamus, Xander, and Emily struggle to rebuild their lives, strange disturbances begin to surface an ocean away. Ancient texts refuse to remain unchanged, impossible plants take root, and dreams blur the boundary between memory and something far older.

What happened beneath Blackthorn was never the end of the story.

It was only the opening of the gate.

The Guardian of the Path - Coming 2028

The Path of Three has been opened. Now someone must guard what lies beyond it.

As the boundaries between past and present begin to fracture, Lark and the others discover that the ancient covenant binding their families was only part of a much older story. What they inherited cannot simply be destroyed—and what has crossed the threshold cannot easily be sent back.

To protect the people they love, they must finally understand what the Path was created to protect, who has guarded it for generations, and what it will demand of them now.

Some legacies are inherited. Others must be chosen.
