Book Overview

by Angela Slatter (Author)

Angela Slatter's The Night Stair is a gothic fantasy tale of vampires, vengeance, and treachery set in the award-winning author's Sourdough universe.

Two of Adlisa's sisters have been selected to serve, adopting the role of dutiful daughter to the dark Lady who rules the manor. Two of Adlisa's sisters were eaten, devoured when the Lady's fixations soured and they were deemed expendable.

Now it's Adlisa's turn to serve, selected from seven candidates to step into the opulent luxury of her new life. Her survival depends on maintaining a fragile illusion, standing in for the child Her Ladyship lost centuries before.

Yet Adlisa is no helpless daughter, here to serve and earn coin for her family until her untimely death. She plays her own games with the Lord and Lady of the house, and she is not as helpless as she seems.

This chapbook presents a stand-alone story set in the world of A.G. Slatter's The Crimson Road, alongside an author's note and an updated chronology of the Sourdough universe.
