title: Dirge
author: Richardson, Lesli
description: (Book 1 of the Devastation Trilogy)
  He doesn't know how to let go...
  I was a husband, a father, a politician. Now, I'm just lost.
  Maybe they can help find me, I don't know. Maybe I shouldn't be found.
  Maybe the devastation that is my life should be allowed to crumble and decay.
  There is no comfort in a funeral dirge, no solace in empty words spoken to me.
  There is no release from this hell but death, and I can't do that yet.
  I don't know how to let go.
  But...maybe they can help me hold on.
  [85k words, political romance, mmf]
