Book I in the Victorian Gothic Series
Some deaths are remembered incorrectly. Others are meant to be forgotten.
Thaddeus Priest has learned that the dead rarely rest quietly when the truth has been buried with them.
Years ago, a young clerk named Artie died during a public spectacle at the Surrey Zoological Gardens. The crowd saw a terrible accident. History recorded little more. But when Thaddeus begins looking into the forgotten death, he finds something far more troubling: threatening letters, old secrets, and evidence that someone who witnessed Artie’s final moments may have known exactly what was going to happen.
View BookI loved this book. It pulled me in from the beginning, the characters were engaging, the storyline is great. I only wish I hadn't finished it! Looking forward to the next installment.
Fantastic read. I can't wait until the next one!

This is the second edition of Moonshine. I decided to change the cover and modify the fonts inside to freshen it up. I like the new look and I hope you enjoy reading it as much as I enjoyed writing it.

Robin Trent writes stories steeped in velvet shadows, flickering lanternlight, and the uneasy hush of things long forgotten. Her work blends Victorian gothic, faery lore, and supernatural intrigue into immersive tales that blur the line between history and myth. Driven by a fascination with haunted places, hidden truths, and the secret lives of the living and the dead, Robin brings to life characters who linger long after the final page is turned. Each book invites readers into a world where danger is elegant, magic is treacherous, and every mystery has a heartbeat.
