Los Angeles.The Eighties.Cait MacReady is an ex-punk rocker, having spent her college years bouncing around the underground that was quickly burning out and becoming something more hardcore. She spent time interning with occult mystery hunters running their own ramshackle television show. She became a librarian and book restorer. She became a forger, recreating lost and forbidden volumes of magickal power, all the time never once believing that there was anything to all that and steering well clear of anyone who did.She made up a book of her own. To see if she could fool anyone into thinking that it was real history, real magic, real power. Just to see what happened. Then she met the Queen.The Queen already knows about the book, already believes in its power, already craves what is written within those pages. And she'll do anything to possess it.Originally released in 2018, The Queen of No Tomorrows returns in a revised edition. Accompanying the original novel is a new novella entitled "Dreams are Made of Us," telling the story of the band Dreamless, who may have stumbled into overnight success after ten years. But success comes at the cost of playing someone else's song. Only this time it's the Queen of No Tomorrows who is calling the tune.The first of the Hazeland books, The Queen of No Tomorrows combines crime and weird horror, wrapped around a heart of longing and a perhaps dangerous belief in the power of the word to change the real. This edition also includes many pages of behind-the-scenes notes, inspirations and shots fired across the bow of hidebound thought.

LOS ANGELES, THE EIGHTIES. Librarian Cait forges occult books in her spare time. But her latest has developed a life all its own. Cait MacReady spends her days in the UCLA library, special collections, restoring old books and saving them from the ravages of time. By night, she works her real job, making copies of antique and occult texts. But don't call them forgeries. She only gives customers exactly what they want.When her ex-lover, now business partner, shows up on behalf of some customers who want a book that isn't written yet, Cait gets suspicious. When she discovers they're from the organization No Tomorrows, she gets scared. And when she finds out that their leader, the enigmatic figure called the Queen, wants a book that only Cait has, she begins to wonder what's real and what she's manufactured on her own.Cait's latest creation, the Smoking Codex, is a work of complete fiction and all her own, nothing but vodka-fueled occult nonsense and heartfelt desire. It's a fake—no history, no power.Or is it? This book takes on a life of its own, and the police get involved as people start to die. Now Cait must somehow manage to stop a thing that has already happened: the book’s secret god is already known.And its name has been spoken.REVIEWS: "LA noir goes weird and eerie in Queen of No Tomorrows. You might think you’re merely faking an ancient text for profit, but the power of the Word is real, and its truth will likely slither from the shadows of your imagination and bite you. Intriguing and finely written.” Jamie Delano (author of Hellblazer)"A dark tour of our most sun-drenched city, led by a woman unlike any other. The prose positively crackles with dread—I couldn't put it down!" Corinna Bechko (author of Invisible Republic and Heathentown)
