Each had their own writing flavor and captivating tale-telling ways. Each author wove a tale around the watch and even referenced the history told in the earlier stories to add to the watch’s lore. The Deadly Hours is an anthology of four separate stories down through time that all focus on a legendary cursed watch, Le Sirene. ![]() ![]() What a powerhouse group of historical suspense and mystery authors! I took one look at the author line up and it was a done deal, but then to see that a few of the novellas were for favorite series made it an even more exquisite anticipation.
