Dionysus in Wisconsin

For fans of KJ Charles's The Magpie Lord and Freya Marske's A Marvellous Light, this Lammy-nominated twentieth-century American romance follows a graduate student through a magical, queernorm version of the 1960s as he joins forces with an archivist to fight a god.

Fall, 1969. Ulysses Lenkov should be working on his dissertation. Instead, he's caught up in the troubles of ghosts and hapless magic users. But when his clients start vanishing, he worries there's something afoot that’s worse than an unavenged death. The last word on the victim's lips? Dionysus.

Sam Sterling just moved back to Madison and is already embroiled in a family crisis. But his peaceful days as an archivist come to an end when the magnetic, mistrustful Ulysses turns up with a warning. There's a god coming, and it's coming for Sam.

As the two men's lives grow ever more intertwined, they face harrowing demon attacks, family secrets, and the race to a solution that doesn't end in heartbreak and death. As the solstice draws near, so does a deadly showdown that threatens both Sam and the city itself.

Dionysus in Wisconsin is the first in a new series of urban fantasy/historical M/M romances set in Madison, WI in the late 1960s/early 1970s. It doesn't end on a cliffhanger and can be read as a stand-alone.
