What happens when you're only 12 years old and everything you believe in gets torn apart?

This is what David Martin has to face when he is called to meet his hero, Sir Richard -- a king renown for his honor and bravery. Or so David thought. But during his six-day journey to the castle, he learned not everyone held so high an opinion of the man. Some even mocked his legendary exploits...causing David to question everything he had learned as a child...and to wonder if Sir Richard ever truly existed.

Daniel writes murder mysteries and wants to get back together with his ex, Tad. Their breakup hurt him, deeply, yet he still loves the guy and it''s driving him nuts. Then Tad appears at Daniel''s job and begs him to help rewrite two of his books into a series for cable. If Daniel does, he gets a week in Bermuda, with Tad, to try and rekindle their love. If not, he loses the guy, forever.

But part of the deal is Daniel has to do the writing in Tad''s summer lodge, to keep the project quiet. Despite it being the dead of winter and having to get the scripts ready within seventy-two hours, Daniel agrees. Naturally, a blizzard roars in, trapping him there as that "isolated lodge" becomes filled with the chaos of mystery, suspense, lies, sex, betrayal, seduction, revenge, murder, fist-fights, confusion, frostbite, nudity, gunfire, predatory females, homophobic males, an obnoxious caretaker, a hot shower with people who don''t exist, a blazing fireplace, wistful dreams, bizarre shower curtains, shredded clothes, off-key Sit-com music, secrets in shadows, crooked politicians, bribery money, a hermit who hates everything except chipmunks, and romance with the proper stranger.

It sure doesn''t help that Daniel''s fictional detective, Ace Shostakovich, has come along for the ride, bitching and snarking as he tells the story, leading Daniel to wonder if what''s happening is real, or if losing Tad has driven him completely insane and he is now trapped in one of his books.
