 The Fool's Odyssey Trilogy


Book 2:


When Xavi becomes an accidental witness to the murder of a wealthy woman
he knows exactly what to do - get the hell out of there, fast! Xavi lives on the
edge of the law; he and the police don't exactly mix. Unfortunately the cop who
is sent after him turns out to have some rather unusual abilities, so it isn't
long before their paths cross - which is roughly when Xavi begins to realize
that getting caught may be the very least of his troubles. 

 

  

First in the Fool’s Odyssey Trilogy - Xavi is a sometime hooker, sometime gigolo, working the rich pickings of wealthy tourists and bored socialites of Barcelona in 2042. His current meal ticket is Sophia Matas, the wife of a prominent politician. Then Sophia is assassinated and he’s the only witness. Within hours, Xavi finds himself in protective custody and in a safe house. His guardian is Andreas, a vampire liaising with the Barcelona police.
Andreas needs to exert control - of himself, his abilities, and his relationships. Now he must keep Xavi safe.  If he can keep Xavi in one place long enough. They embark on an affair that will define who and what they are, played out in an deadly dance of kill-or-be-killed danger.

Flein is a wanderer by instinct and need, roaming the known world as the fancy takes him.

In the Highland village of Glenfinnan, women have been raped and brutally murdered. The killer is a waterhorse, a monstrous shapeshifter by all accounts. But when Flein meets Donnchadh, first in its equine form, then its man-shape, he knows the waterhorse is innocent. As they hunt for the real murderer, Flein reluctantly becomes more and more drawn to the handsome shapeshifter. Donnchadh, though wary, shares the same attraction.

But time is against them. They must find the killer before more women die. Then suspicion is turned on them and the hunters become the hunted.

 

 

 - This is not absolutely a "light" tale... but probably it respects the myths and legends. Donnchadh is not a "shapeshifter" for romance novel, he is scaring and dangerous... this is only a novella, but it's a very good one... - awarded Five Stars at Amazon.com Kindle Store


 - Chris Quinton’s Dark Waters is a wonderful story set in the Highlands. There is action, suspense, and sweltering erotic encounters between Flein and Donnchadh. Donnchadh has never known companionship and finds that with Flein. Flein has had others share his life with him, but he has never felt the completeness that Donnchadh is able to deliver. The characters are strong, the plot keeps you engrossed, and the story on a whole was intriguing. It was definitely a wonderful break from the normal shapeshifter novels that have crossed my desk and well worth a read or two - awarded 5 Nymphs


 

 Night Owl Reviews - I liked the gritty telling of the murder mystery as well as the love between Flein and Donnchadh it made me want to jump into the book and help them succeed - awarded 4.5 stars




Fallen Angel Reviews - This was an intriguing little tale...I really liked Chris Quinton’s style and look forward to reading more by this author - awarded 4 Angels
