Tarnished
Beginnings
Egypt is a haven for
magic-wielders of all kinds. Vampires hold court, staying one step ahead of the
priests who want them dead. Gypsy caravans roam the Nile, plying their wares.
Tairin Jabari was born in a
caravan and has always believed she's Romani. Why wouldn't she? Her mother and
father never suggested otherwise. The Rom have harsh rules. When Tairin's first
shift catches her unaware at 13, her father disappears, and the elders move
with deadly speed to punish her mother for mating outside the blood.
Hurt, lost, confused, and fearing
for her own life, Tairin runs away, leaving her mother's smoking funeral pyre
behind. With her survival on the line every single day, she and her wolf face
hard choices.
Tarnished
Legacy
Half Romani, Tairin's no stranger
to hiding her mixed blood from gypsy caravans. What she can't hide is her
perpetual youth, courtesy of her shifter heritage. She's overstayed her welcome
where she is, but Germany is at war, and travel has become impossible for
everyone targeted by the Reich.
Elliott's clairvoyance is strong.
Seer for all the caravans in Germany, he catches Tairin eavesdropping outside
their leader's wagon. He should turn her in, but he can't bring himself to do
that. Instead, he interrogates her. Her magic is different, but he can't figure
out quite what she is.
Any association between Romani
and shifters is forbidden. Tairin should leave right now, tonight - before he
discovers what she is and destroys her.

About the Author:
Ann
Gimpel is a mountaineer at heart. Recently retired from a long career as a
psychologist, she remembers many hours at her desk where her body may have been
stuck inside four walls, but her soul was planning yet one more trip to the
backcountry. Around the turn of the last century (that would be 2000, not
1900!), she managed to finagle moving to the Eastern Sierra, a mecca for those
in love with the mountains. It was during long backcountry treks that Ann’s
writing evolved. Unlike some who see the backcountry as an excuse to drag
friends and relatives along, Ann prefers solitude. Stories always ran around in
her head on those journeys, sometimes as a hedge against abject terror when
challenging conditions made her fear for her life, sometimes for company.
Eventually, she returned from a trip and sat down at the computer. Three months
later, a five hundred page novel emerged. Oh, it wasn’t very good, but it was a
beginning. And, she learned a lot between writing that novel and its sequel.
Around
that time, a friend of hers suggested she try her hand at short stories. It
didn’t take long before that first story found its way into print and they’ve
been accepted pretty regularly since then. One of Ann’s passions has always
been ecology, so her tales often have a green twist.
In
addition to writing, Ann enjoys wilderness photography. She lugs pounds of
camera equipment in her backpack to distant locales every year. A standing joke
is that over ten percent of her pack weight is camera gear which means someone
else has to carry the food! That someone is her husband. They’ve shared a life
together for a very long time. Children, grandchildren and three wolf hybrids
round out their family.
