Fiction. Women's Studies. Living in Washington, DC, New York City, Fort Bragg, Muncie, and Rome, the educated, world weary, wise-cracking women in Jane Gillette's collection THE TRAIL OF THE DEMON AND OTHER STORIES show both seriousness and levity as they deal with the inexorable march of time. Gillette is concerned with her characters' lives and with the odd and remarkable moments when everything comes together in a way that is not limited to the mundane world. She finds epiphanies that point beyond in surprising fashion. Her stories are compellingly honest about the nature of memory and personal history, moving freely in time and discovering the long view. Her prose is sharp, even lethal, as she strips away facades leaving these characters to find their truer selves. Advance praise for THE TRAIL OF THE DEMON AND OTHER STORIES places her among the pantheon of great literary short fiction writers. "Jane Gillette's stories are laced with mordant humor and sharp insights about the realities of sex, race, and privilege. Her voice, reminiscent of Grace Paley or Edith Pearlman, is strong, smart and wholly her own."--Alix Ohlin "Whether dissecting racial anxiety or class resentment or various forms of jealousy and disappointment, Gillette's stories fearlessly expose the human heart beating beneath our civilization's many veils."--May-Lee Chai

He's known as the Lord of Chaos, and he's mistaken me for my succubus doppelgänger. Happy birthday to me. When he tastes my blood, he finally understands I'm mortal. And I realize we have something in common: we both crave revenge. So we make a deal: I can stay in the forbidden city to hunt for my mom's killer. In return, I'll help him get the vengeance he craves. I just have to pose as a sexy succubus. One problem--he's my number one suspect. And that's increasingly hard to remember as he teaches me my role: seduction. With each heated touch I drift further into peril. And if I fall under his seductive spell, death awaits me. "I flew through this book... Hot demon lord-check. Action-check. Romance-check. And there's spice! If you love my books, you definitely want to read this one." -Laura Thalassa

Brenton College may be a highly reputed private school of music and the arts, but there are deadly things associated with its director and staff. Are some of them victims or villains? In any event two students have been killed near the Demon Cave once owned by the head of Brenton College and now in Simon's possession. Fortunately, Tom McElrath's young stepbrother has appeared on the scene to take his place as Simon's assistant. His job will be to learn how to protect himself and Simon, attend and spy at the Brenton College, and stay alive. With two students murdered near the Demon's Cave, this is a risky business indeed. With the wily Mildred Brenton guarding her school, Simon may have met his match. As usual, Lieutenant Robert Campbell of the Ben Nevis Homicide Department has more assistance than he wants from Simon, Mrs. Zacharias, and now young Alex McElrath.
