of new beginnings.
I enter renewed
welcoming time’s
transition, unaware
of what I’m ushering in.
In the dark recesses of your mind lies a clock. Once the clock strikes midnight, it begins.
What happens at 12 a.m.?
Journey through The Red Hour with this first book in The Hourglass Collection.
Rena Aliston is a gothic writer and poet specializing in noir crime fiction infused with occult themes. Her debut series, Xander Walsh, blends hardboiled detective storytelling with atmospheric suspense and esoteric symbolism, exploring complex themes of trauma, identity, and the supernatural.
In addition to her fiction, she is an accomplished dark poet known for her evocative verses that delve into the shadowy facets of human experience.
When not chasing elusive leads through swampy back roads or unraveling cryptic symbols, Rena immerses herself in dark music and cinema and embraces life as a devoted dog mom and small business owner. Born and raised in Pennsylvania, she currently resides in Kentucky.
