A standalone novel in the Loving Husband Series.
For readers drawn to Dark Academia, Gothic mystery, and the psychological darkness of Edgar Allan Poe, The Professor of Eventide is a slow-burning literary mystery about obsession, immortality, and the dangerous persistence of the past.
Professor Jonathan Ferrars has spent a long time keeping his secrets.
When Jonathan arrives at Eventide College, he hopes to disappear into academic life. But Jonathan has lived long enough to know that the past is never truly buried.
During the autumn term, three of his students are murdered in a manner that feels less like a crime than a ritual. As the police close in, Jonathan begins to recognize a pattern in the deaths-a meticulously constructed design that places him at its center.
The deeper he ventures into the mystery, the more dangerous it becomes for a man who has spent a lifetime concealing the truth about himself. Jonathan knows what it means to watch generations pass while remaining behind. He knows the burden of memories that should have faded centuries ago. And he knows some secrets become harder to keep with every passing year.
At Eventide College, the past has begun to awaken. Jonathan Ferrars is not who he claims to be, you see. He has another name-one he does not want spoken.
A haunting Gothic meditation on intellectual obsession, isolation, and immortality, The Professor of Eventide is a literary mystery in the tradition of Poe-where clues cast long shadows, stories conceal other stories, and the dead are never quite as distant as they seem.
