Tess Hawkhurst has retired to Sinneport, Sussex, to raise her daughter, run the Mairemaid Inn, and engage in a little illicit business on moonless nights. She reckons she’s content, but one fateful night a group of wandering musicians evoke her past so vividly it’s hard to tell what’s what and when’s when…and Tess is left wondering who else might come calling.

Inspired by the song Wages of Sin from The Dark Design debut album 12 Tall Tales, this story was first published in The Dark Design Anthology: Tale of the Red Queen and Other Stories.
