A Dance with the Devil

A Dance with the Devil

Order Now

Louisiana: the enigmatic bayou, the moss-draped river trees, the ghostly city of New Orleans. It was all a setting for devilish intrigue and dangerous love.

Four talented authors who make their homes in this mysterious state conjure tales of three desperate women and a man who, long ago, dared to dance with the devil, risking souls for hearts’ desire… and finding love.

Deborah Martin contributes the story “Out of the Night.”

In researching The Art of Sinning, I discovered quite a few American artists who ended up touring or settling in England. The most famous one, of course, is Benjamin West, one of the founders of the Royal Academy of Arts. Already established as a portrait painter in Pennsylvania, he went to England initially for a visit and ended up residing there for the rest of his life. Alvan Fisher, an American landscapist, toured England around the time of my story. Samuel Morse (yes, the co-developer of Morse code) was also a painter and member of The Royal Academy, who studied in England under West. In fact, several American artists of the period studied there—Robert Fulton, Charles Wilson Peale, and Washington Allston, among others. So Jeremy was part of a long-standing tradition with American artists.
