The Secrets of Jean-Baptiste

It was always going to end in a bloodbath.

Arthur Culver loses all hope of normal life after six years unemployed, broke, and homeless. Doomed to sleep on his best friend’s couch, he’s blindsided when one of Canada’s wealthiest men offers him a job as his butler. Doctor Jean-Baptiste Dubois is charming, generous, handsome. A perfect boss. A perfect man. And yet.


Art’s dream job becomes a nightmare when facts about a former employee’s departure point to foul play. All of Jean’s previous butlers have disappeared, and Art’s beginning to suspect he may be next. With whispers and lies and cover-ups circulating the manor, Art’s forced to face the truth: Something is very wrong with Jean-Baptiste, and everyone knows what it is but him.

Sucks he’s falling in love with him, anyway.

The Secrets of Jean-Baptiste is available on Tapas and soon-to-be in paperback. It is the first in the Night Children series and can be read as a standalone. It features Canadian winters, a man who is probably a murderer, and immaculate suits.
