The rush of the festive season is passing Betty by. She’s just trying to make it through another Christmas in London, volunteering at a nearby shelter, helping the forgotten souls of Kings Cross.

Then she finds Caden.

He's quiet, resists help, and doesn't seem to fit in with the other homeless. He is just a man on the street, trying desperately to remain unseen, but Betty can sense a strange, cold power beneath his worn blankets. Caden is a secret waiting to be found.

On a dark, freezing Christmas night, her curiosity finally gives way to horror. She witnesses a flash of the impossible—a breach in the line between the human world and the dangerous truth of the hidden world that Caden has to conceal.

Christmas miracles aren't real... are they? And if there truly is an Angel of Kings Cross, is it a man, or a monster?

The Angel of Kings Cross is a companion novelette to the LineFolk of London series. It can be read and enjoyed as a standalone story, or as part of the main series itself.

His standalone debut, The Terminus Of All Things, is a mind-bending urban portal fantasy set in the chaotic, dystopian world of Endland. He is also the creator of the upcoming LineFolk of London series, a separate urban mythology where the UK’s mythological creatures are confined to the London Underground’s Circle Line, drawing their magical power from the Tube's Linether energy. He lives in the south of England with his family and many, many pets.
