The Short Cases of Adam Cole
The complete (on-going) list of Adam Cole short stories.
To keep things a little more orderly, I’ve collected the short stories featuring the cases of private investigator Adam Cole on this one page to free them from the progressive mire of chapter releases on the homepage.
All shorter stories will be available here as they’re written and put out into the world. Not following any particular chronology, these stories feature the leaner, tighter investigations that cropped up for Cole throughout the 1880’s in-between the novel-length ones.

Keep an eye on this page over the coming months as new stories get hammered out and made available to the reader!
