 In the style and spirit of FORTUNES OF WAR comes this rollicking gay historical set in 1727 ... in the world of highwaymen, of duels fought over honor, fortunes won and lost at the gaming tables, and romance that fairly sizzles.

Our heroes come from vastly disparate backgrounds. Harry Trevellion was well bred and would have been a gentleman if his father’s estate had not been lost ... and Nicholas Grey is the favorite son of a wealthy man, who was born ‘on the wrong side of the blanket’ quite by chance! Nick’s brother, Paul, is a wastrel, a scoundrel who is only waiting for their frail old father to pass away. He’ll ruin the family ... and he scorns his illegitimate half-brother, though Nicholas is doing difficult, dangerous work for their father.

Nick’s job is to courier jewelry safely between manufacturer and client ... and it’s only a matter of time before he runs into the irresistible rogue, Harry Trevellion. The two share a stormy relationship until the day Paul Rosewarne has been waiting for arrives: the master of Rosewarne Hall passes on ... and the quirks of an old man’s last will and testament put Nicholas behind bars.

It’s a world of swords, pistol duels, midnight chases, deceit and sheer sensuality, in a time when fortunes could still be made ... and lost. If you loved Mel’s other historicals, including FORTUNES OF WAR, THE DECEIVERS and WHITE ROSE OF NIGHT, don’t miss this one!

Pullquote:
Mel Keegan’s name is a byword for thrilling gay adventure in the past, present and future — MILLIVRES on Aquamarine.

PUBLISHER'S NOTES:
Many readers have been awaiting the release of this title with keen anticipation. It's Mel Keegan's first historical since the award winning THE DECEIVERS ... it's also Mel's first 'thick' since NOCTURNE ... and it's the first 'big family saga' type work since FORTUNES OF WAR.

DANGEROUS MOONLIGHT is everything you've been waiting for. It's a work you can get your teeth into — twice the length of an average novel. And we've packed it into around 340pp to keep down costs. We're able to bring you this monster at only a couple of bucks over the price of the routine paperback.

(Meanwhile, it's worth noting, here, that we're also making available an 'easyread' version, for readers who experience difficulties with the smaller type in the issues such as NOCTURNE, which are packed to cost less at the post office. If you're interested in the 'easy read' version, please contact us for information. Briefly, the book is presented in larger type, with a more 'relaxed' layout, making it easier to read ... but this means it's about a hundred pages longer. Naturally, it costs a little more both at the printshop and the post office, and this is reflected in the 'easyread' price. Information is available on reqest.)
