Unnatural Causes is off to readers ... heaven help me (and them).
So for today, here's the song I have written down as a touchstone on the overarching theme. If you listen to the lyrics, they refer specifically to a romance, but they have much broader implications, especially for a tale with politics, betrayal and a dose of hero worship:
Writing On The Wall - Blackmore's Night
I've also written a short story that uses this song as a tighter theme / inspiration, along with another tune that just happens to be part of my Unnatural Causes soundtrack. I've referenced this one before, and it's Vil's themesong, as well:
Orange Express - Miami Sound Machine
To repeat: "a toda maquina" means "at full speed" or "full speed ahead."
