# The Red Winter: A lyrical folklore fantasy full of sorcery, demons and debauchery

The Red Winter is a dark fantasy set in France in 1785, when the Beast of Gévaudan, the creature of eighteenth-century legend, is killing again. Its protagonist is Professor Sebastian Grave, a monster-slayer of long experience who hosts the demon Sarmodel. Twenty years earlier he hunted the same creature through a bloody winter that nearly cost him his life.

Now he is recalled to the hunt by Antoine Avenel d'Ocerne, a former lover bound to the Beast by his own dark past and to Sebastian by a secret neither can escape. Cameron Sullivan draws on the real legend for a richly told, openly queer story in which the old love between the two men matters as much as the hunt. It suits readers who want folklore that is sensual, bloody and emotionally sharp.
