Dorian and Marlowe's story begins just as it ends - in blood. For Oliver and his brother, running always seemed like the safest path. For Marlowe, it was the only path. And it might have worked if only they knew who, or what, pursued them. That this thing would follow them to the ends of time and drag them back into the past. Basilic, the second novel in the Tiber Series, weaves the rich tapestry of Marlowe's second life. Beginning in the Autumn of 1929, J.H. White cleverly spans decades to craft the story of Marlowe's found family. This supernatural thriller and historical fantasy peels layer upon layer to reveal a complex world steeped in vengeance and hunger.
