Icarus Volume II

Something must've happened last summer in Palm Beach to make a teenaged Rabbit into a drunken shadow of his former self. He won't talk about it, but there's enough gossip going around. Whatever really happened, it left the kid an orphan at 18. The ghosts in the lonely mansion drove him out at night to find company, and he fell in with the wrong crowd-a crowd of theives, whores, druggies & killers, the best friends money can buy. And as if that wasn't enough, he invited them all over for a house party. It's the Darkside version of the Real World, a two-week whirlwind of danger, depravity and forbidden romance, and while his rapid descent into the seedy underworld is shocking, it isn't nearly as horrifying as discovering his own family's awful secret in this steamy prequel to the Heresy series.

Alexander Ferrar was born on a battlefield, and the first sounds he heard were the shots that killed his parents. He was reared by a cutthroat band of evil mercenaries, and he grew up hard, suckled as he was at the teats of war. He-okay, no, he wasn’t. He lives in La Antigua Guatemala where he owns a restaurant-art gallery and a very popular exotic ice cream company, and he has a beautiful wife. His grass is plenty green. He’s also the author of the Heresy series of crime fiction novels, the sword-and-sorcery comedy Saga of the Beverage Men, the forthcoming Memoirs of a Swine, and the art collection Variety is the Spice. But the other story sounded better, didn’t it?
