Weekend Briefing: Thirteen Days until Red as Blood!
Welcome, agents, to the month of February. For the shortest month of the year, there is a lot happening: Valentine's Day, Leap Year, and the launch of Red as Blood!
As many of you already know, Red as Blood is based off of two fairy tales: "Snow White and the Seven Dwarves" and "Snow White and Rose Red."
Many know the Disney version of "Snow White and the Seven Dwarves" but here's a link to the original Brothers Grimm version for anyone who wants to touch up on the original: Snow White and the Seven Dwarves.
Fewer know of the tale of "Snow White and Rose Red" though it has become more popular lately. It was Mission Head's favorite of the two as a young girl, and it always bothered her that no one else seemed to remember Snow White's sister- because how could there be two different girls named 'Snow White' by the same authors? For those curious to read the also Brothers Grimm version of this tale, here's another link: Snow White and Rose Red.
The inauguration year of Queen Victoria means little in the wild west of the Americas...
Rose Red is a respectable woman now, and her past as a member of Queenie's cattle-wrangling gang is securely behind her. Until the sister she left behind appears at her door, desperate for help. With nowhere else to turn, Rose has to seek shelter from the sheriff... who also happens to be the man she stood up at the altar.
Blood is thicker than water.
When Blanca Red learns that Queenie means to have her killed, she flees for her life from the only family she's ever known. Other than the sister who abandoned her years ago. Now she and her estranged sister have to lay low with the sheriff's brother- and local preacher- who insists that her past isn't too much of an obstacle for her to become a church man's wife.
But as Rose could tell her sister, the past has a way of finding you again. And hers wants her dead.
The Clockwork Faerie Tale Novella series can be read as stand-alones or together, for whenever you want your steampunk happily ever after.
