Dark Knight of Connecticut: Year 2012 - Welcome to Bartlett Bay

The Bartletts are a wealthy, rich and distant family who had no interest in Ethan Bartlett whatsoever until the two last male members of his family are murdered and he is drawn across the country into the city his ancestors built.

Bartlett Bay, Connecticut is a nice little fishing town, if a bit poor, located on the Long Island Sound and is of no particular note to those passing by on the freeway or landing on the private airstrip to the north, but under that veneer, beyond the smiles and casual banter of the locals, there are secrets and none of them are nice. Ethan, a young but trained monster hunter and magician, is instantly pitted against witches, murderers, cannibal hags, rival hunters, evil magicians and more as he protects the locals, rescues children and uncovers secret after secret which seemed to emanate from the Engelstad in the center, a grouping of trees a few miles in diameter on the outside and maybe a hundred or more inside, where he finds the biggest secrets may well be his own, secrets of a past he did not know he had, that lead him back in time, back to Tudor England and the American Civil War, where he met with the great men and women of the times and helped carve out history itself.

The first year of Ethan Bartlett's adventures are in the form of six short stories and ten long in a mix of novelettes and novellas that, in addition to his adventures, depict his arrival, his draw into the town's problems, the forming of his relationships good, bad, romantic and outright hostile, financial problems and all the other difficulties pertaining to life in modern day America.
