Virtual Tales to Publish Romance "The Moon's Complexion" by Irene Black

Virtual Tales is pleased to announce the acquisition of a new Romance title, "The Moon's Complexion," by British author Irene Black. Set in modern-day India, a distant tragedy turns the lives of two English strangers upside down when they meet in India and discover a secret that binds them together as they flee from a dangerous stalker.

Ms. Black was born in the UK but comes from an ethnically diverse background, with family spread across the world. A frequent visitor to India, she has worked for periods of up to eight months in Bangalore in the Indian state of Karnataka, and holds an MA in South Indian temple architecture. It is no surprise, then, that her works often examine cultural identity and draw upon her Indian research.

Ms. Black's short stories, articles and poems have won major prizes, including first prize in the 2003 National Association of Writers Groups annual short story competition. Her works have been published in writing magazines, including Writers' News, Writers' Forum and The New Writer, as well as broadcast on BBC radio. In addition to THE MOON'S COMPLEXION, she has recently completed a second novel about India, DARSHAN.
