Baron Templeton and Eddie Hammond once formed the backbone of the greatest band of all time.

But somewhere in between - amid social change and songs, worries and wives, cats and children - they shared an illicit love affair whose impact would reverberate across history. In this series of interconnected short stories that are searing, sexy, and, above all, tender, F. Fox North returns to the world of Saffron to tell the secret history of two men that the world wanted to tame - but ultimately never would.
