Subcontinent Sirens

Volume-Three in the "Subcontinent Sirens" collection brings us two works of occult and psychological fantasy fiction involving the females of the Indian Subcontinent.

The first of our two books is Berndt Schuster's "A Reversal in Chennai", in which, divorced, disgraced, and shunned by wife, family and friends - and with his promising career with the US Government gone sideways; Gavin Talbot accepts the position as Head of the Visa Department in the American Consulate in far off Chennai... And takes on a local woman to take care of his new beachside residence... Only to find himself himself developing an unhealthy obsession with the unremarkable younger woman that is as inexplicable as it is submissive.

"Serving Sreelatha" by Kurt Steiner concludes the volume as Mr Steiner brings us the story - with occult undertones - of a once successful husband who finds himself stripped of his position at the business he runs and in the home. A fall from grace coming after a life-changing meeting with the widow of his former business partner and her draconian housekeeper... And a fall his wife is only too happy to embrace!

Believable and female-led fantasy fiction for those readers who prefer to use their imaginations with the help of character-driven plotlines.
