Love Sonata 1784, an 18th-century Mystery Suspense Novelette (Content Advisory & Dedication)
Love Sonata 1784
by
Troy Arrandale
Being the history at the end of the American Revolution of a judge who’s presented with an unusual Murder and Treason case who has to ask himself, “Is there such a thing as magick?“*
*18th‑century spelling, phrasing and way of random capitalizing I use for fun.
Author’s Note #1: Sometimes I use a few 18th‑century spellings or ways of saying things here or there throughout the novelette which is harder for modern readers to understand (like me! lol), but I tried to limit it. This is a work of pure fiction and even though I use a couple of real historical figures, I mess with some of the dates and their words and deeds are purely my imagination.
Author’s Note #2: WARNING. Non‑humanitarian practices, slavery and unequal rights of minorities, women and children may be depicted due to the historical setting and time period.
For Bob, Sally and Dee. And my brother John whoexpressed an interest when I told him the story tagline but who doesn’t read much anymore. Thanks for your support.
