The seductive reimagining of a Gothic classic—a repressed wife encounters a mysterious woman who awakens her desire in the “lesbian vampire novel we need.” (Them)

A moving and deeply humane story about a trans man who must relinquish the freedoms of prewar Berlin to survive first the Nazis then the Allies, all while protecting the ones he loves.

The frank and revealing memoir of a writer who draws from her own creativity to heal.

From the acclaimed author of Chef’s Kiss, a groundbreaking trans Regency romance that’s both delightfully witty and refreshingly iconoclastic.

A gripping 1920s-set whodunnit, this debut features a queer sleuth who must solve a murder in a mansion on London’s Hampstead Heath without revealing his sexuality, lest he be arrested as a criminal.
