Siri Paulson (she/her) loves nothing more than mixing up genres to see what will happen. Her other passion is contra (folk) dancing. Her lifelong dreams include publishing novels (one and counting), travelling the world (had a good start until recently), and becoming an astronaut (still waiting…). She lives with her spouse in an old house in Toronto, dubbed the TARDIS because it’s bigger on the inside.

Siri’s most recent release is a near-future retelling of the Little Mermaid, a novella titled Voice of the Sea. Her queer fantasy novel City of Hope and Ruin, co-written with Kit Campbell, was released in 2016. Her work has also appeared in Abyss & Apex, Daily Science Fiction, and Polar Borealis, in Queer Sci Fi’s flash fiction anthologies Clarity (2022), Migration (2019), and Renewal (2017) (https://queerscifi.com), and in the 2017 holiday collection from Mischief Corner Books (https://www.mischiefcornerbooks.com/a-new-year-on-vega-iii.html).

She can also be found dabbling in photography on Instagram.

Summary: Can We Love More Than One Person? Juan Diego has loved Nicholas for a lot longer than Nicholas has loved Oliver. At one time, Nicholas appreciated Juan Diego’s love, but today, Nicholas is solely focused on loving Oliver and hoping that Oliver will love him back. Can Nicholas endure the wake of violence Juan Diego leaves behind trying to get Nicholas to love him back? Maybe, but the real question is, can Oliver? The twisted love triangle in The Shadow of Death continues the murderous love story of Nicholas and Oliver as they continue the struggles of defining their relationship. In the middle of it all is Juan Diego and a whole cast of characters who make it more and more difficult for Oliver and Nicholas to be together. In the end, Oliver has to decide if he will be played or if he will play the game like Nicholas and Juan Diego do. Either way, Oliver will end up with blood on his hands and he needs to decide whether he likes blood on his hands or if he prefers to stay in the shadows. And just when Nicholas and Oliver think they finally have their relationship figured out, someone new appears and changes everything.
