The master of the macabre is back. A fictional memoir told in Edgar
Allan Poe's own literary style, "Black Plume" recreates in vivid
detail Poe's strange marriage to his child-bride, his struggle to
make a living, his addiction to alcohol and his agonizing battle
against the sensuality of his nature. Rather than violate the
innocence of his wife, Poe indulges in a passionate, opium-laced
affair with two mysterious fortune tellers, whose exotic allure
blinds him to the danger that swirls around them. When the women
are brutally murdered, Poe is drawn into an adventure that brings
him face to face with a terror even he couldn't have invented...and
inspires his uniquely dark imagination to create the first American
detective story. Told with chilling detail, "Black Plume" will
light up your evenings and darken your days.
