We’re very happy to share the news that there’s a new Judge Dee short story by Lavie Tidhar! Published by Tor.com — on their website, and also as an eBook — THE LOCKED COFFIN is the sixth outing for the author’s vampire sleuth. The cover is by Red Nose Studio. Here’s the synopsis…

While visiting the mysterious castle of Maidstone for an investigation, Judge Dee and Jonathan discover the only thing more menacing than a vampire child is twin vampire children…

The first five Judge Dee tales are out now (also with fantastic covers by Red Nose Studio), also available on Tor.com and as eBooks.

Lavie’s latest novels are ADAMA (Apollo/Head of Zeus) and THE CIRCUMFERENCE OF THE WORLD (Tachyon) — both out now.
