Hidden in Darkness is 90k words of snark, car chases, and morally questionable choices.įelix and Lane are trying out their new normal. Felix might be out of his element, but one thing he is sure about is that he doesn’t want to leave Lane… even if it costs him his life. Even if it involves kidnapping, stealing, and Felix’s overwhelmingly bad ideas, Felix will do just about anything because Lane is there for him unlike anyone else has ever been.

But Felix has finally found a place where he belongs and he’s willing to go to great lengths to stay by Lane’s side. It’s clear that Lane isn’t who he’s pretending to be, and Felix should probably walk away. That is, until he’s attacked by someone who wants to keep Lane quiet. Felix’s humor soon pulls Lane out of his depression, and Felix feels like things are finally going right in his life. But Felix is trying to make his life better, so he’ll put up with the man even if it requires some unconventional methods. It doesn’t help that Felix is clearly not qualified for the job, especially since he can’t even make oatmeal right. Lane is depressed, rude, and difficult to be around.

It has to be better than where he came from, but he has no idea what he’s signed up for. When Felix is hired to take care of a recently blinded man, he thinks his life might finally be turning around.
