Swan maidens and assassins, selkies and disgruntled house spirits walk the pages of Beth Hudson’s short fiction. A player troupe is attacked by dark enchantment; a man seeks to uncover the mystery of a sealed box; a woman desperately searches for her heart’s desire. Fifteen spellbinding tales open a gateway to other worlds full of love, betrayal, and the cost of magic. Because sometimes, when you seek magic, you get your wish. Beth Hudson’s stories have appeared in small press magazines and anthologies for the last fifteen years.
