The Hell You Say: Adrien English Mysteries Book 3
Demons, death threats, and Christmas shopping. It's gonna be one Hell of a Holiday.
In the third installment of the popular Adrien English series, the ill-starred and bookish mystery writer faces his most challenging case yet. When a Satanic cult emerges during the holiday season, Adrien must navigate death threats, occult mysteries, and murder while juggling his complicated personal life.
A Mystery Novel That Delivers Suspense and Romance
This gay mystery novel combines classic detective fiction with compelling character relationships. Adrien English, a bookseller and amateur sleuth, finds himself entangled with a handsome university professor while managing his on-again/off-again relationship with LAPD Detective Jake Riordan. The chemistry between characters adds depth to an already gripping murder investigation.
Part of an Award-Winning Series
The Adrien English series has earned recognition as the All Time Favorite Couple by the Goodreads M/M Romance Group. Author Josh Lanyon brings over sixty titles of classic male/male fiction to readers worldwide, with translations in eleven languages. Fatal Shadows, the first book in this series, placed #5 in Japan's annual Boy Love novel list as the first and only title by a foreign author to achieve this distinction.
What Makes This Book Stand Out
This police procedural combines multiple elements that mystery fans crave: a Satanic cult investigation, holiday-themed tension, and complex detective work. The story unfolds during Christmas, adding atmospheric pressure to an already intense murder case. Adrien's dual role as mystery writer and investigator provides unique insights into the criminal mind.
