Faerie Storm

Be careful what you wish for . . . it might be inhabited by a demon

When a case takes me to the wilderness of Northern Maine, I'm not even sure there's a paranormal angle. Two girls walked into the woods one night and only one of them came back. She's so traumatized by what she saw that she hasn't spoken a word since.

The police come up empty-handed so the girl's father hires me to find out what happened. Getting out of Dearmont for a while seems like a good idea—especially when there's an ancient wizard trying to force me into using a cursed sword—so I pack the mosquito repellent and head north.

But when my client ends up dead, surrounded by occult symbols, I realize this is no vacation. Evil forces are at work here and someone is going to have to deal with them.

Guess that someone will have to be me.
