Lee (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798999984920)

To be haunted or hunted.

"It was many and many a year ago,

In a kingdom by the sea,

That a maiden there lived whom you may know

By the name of Annabel Lee;

And this maiden she lived with no other thought

Than to love and be loved by me."

Anabel Lee is an orphan with no memories of what came before, until they slowly unravel, one ghost at a time.

Loneliness and missing pieces are all she knows until she meets her first love. Together they build those pieces until they turn 18 and separate towards other paths, promising to reunite someday.

Anabel meets her best friend and soul mate, Ardella, and they navigate uncharted waters of new adulthood and promiscuity.

A stranger swoops in by storm, sweeping Ana into something all-consuming. Soon, the secrets and lies pile up until Anabel goes to comfort and assist her best friend after her family's deaths and mysterious disappearances.

Anabel gets a suspicious letter and leaves, returning to where it all began.

A place "with an utter depression of soul which I can compare to no earthly sensation more properly than to the after-dream of the reveller upon opium."

The truth slowly unveils itself, revealing far more than Ana bargained for.

"A wrong is unredressed when retribution overtakes its redresser."

Just what awaits Anabel and her partner in crime, Ardella?

Lee is an Edgar Allan Poe-inspired, interconnected standalone for Poa with MFMF* (Why Choose with both female and male characters) and taboo content.
