Forestedge: A Fin de Siècle Romance is a tale of loss, lust and longing.

Set in England at the turn of the 19th century, the reader follows Arthur Clarence Jr, a misfit in the upper class social circle he hails from. The antihero of this tale returns to his ancestral home to find everything having changed. The promiscuous Madhist War veteran grapples with his position in his family due to the untimely death of his older brother, the physical alterations in his aging father and his foster sister, Evangeline. Having loved her like a genuine sister, she has grown up to become the perfect lady. Shocked that his affections have turned from love to lust, will Arthur find closure and belonging on his quest to overcome his sensual impulses, or will he live up to his scandalous reputation?
