Step into the haunted streets of Pittsburgh in Echoes of the Night: Shadows of Pittsburgh-a queer gothic urban fantasy that blends dark magic, slow-burning romance, and supernatural suspense into a story of identity, found family, and survival.
Nate has always felt like a misfit, haunted by dreams he can't explain and a power he can't control. But when shadows begin stalking him through the city's alleys and crumbling bridges, his quiet life unravels. He finds protection in Derek, a battle-worn young man who knows more about the darkness than he lets on. Bound by a mysterious past and an undeniable connection, the two are pulled into a conflict far older-and more dangerous-than they ever imagined.
Guided by Mark, a witty and enigmatic immortal, and joined by Nina, a fierce fighter with her own reasons to stand and fight, the group must uncover a hidden history of broken pacts, lost magic, and a creature born from memory itself. As Nate's power grows and the city's shadows deepen, fate draws them toward a confrontation that could consume them all.
But Nate's greatest fear isn't the monster stalking the city-it's what's awakening inside him. Because the light within him isn't just magic. It's life. And it's about to be born.
Echoes of the Night is a moody, character-driven novella where the supernatural collides with the deeply personal. At its heart are queer love, chosen family, and the aching desire to be seen, to belong, and to survive the night. It's a story for anyone who's ever felt like the monster-or the magic-inside them was too much to bear.
This dark urban fantasy will resonate with fans of Ninth House, Shades of Magic, The Mortal Instruments, and Supernatural, with a voice and vision that's unapologetically queer, deeply emotional, and unforgettable.
