Kiss Me, Judas (book #1)
Ex-cop Phineas Poe, suspected of murdering his young wife, has been in a mental hospital but is now in a Denver hotel. He meets Jude, and wakes up in a bath full of ice with one of his kidneys missing. Things start getting complicated when Phineas falls in love with Jude
Penny Dreadful (book #2)
In this claustrophobic tale of urban despair and existential noir, ex-cop Phineas Poe-protagonist of Will Christopher Baer’s first novel, Kiss Me, Judas-returns to Denver to find that reality has been rewritten and the laws of reason redrawn. When Phineas is asked by his old ally, Detective Moon, to find a missing officer named Jimmy Sky, he becomes an unwitting participant in a live role-playing game. Everyone he meets has multiple personalities, and Phineas himself soon loses track of his own various identities. Crossing the lines between traditional noir, fantasy, and edgy realism, Penny Dreadful shares sensibilities with everything from the books of William Gibson and Neal Gaiman to the films Trainspotting and The Matrix and the webgames Doom and Myst.
Hell’s Half Acre (book #3)
Cast adrift after the blood symphony of Penny Dreadful, Phineas Poe tracks Jude to San Francisco, where he finds her involved with John Ransom Miller, a wealthy sociopath aiding Jude s revenge fantasies in exchange for her complicity in an unspeakable crime. Alone and outgunned, Poe hopes he can save Jude from herself, make sense of his own past, and navigate the tortuous internal landscape he calls Hell s Half Acre.
