As a busy private investigator working odd hours, I have little time for a social life. My brother Nick aggravated me so much about it, I finally joined an online dating site and put myself out there. Lucky me, one of the first decent guys I meet works as an arson investigator on the south side of the Greater Atlanta area. Our first date goes swimmingly well, until he gets called into work. Someone had attempted to burn down a unit of townhouses under construction in his district, and his expertise was desperately needed. When we arrive on scene, the situation goes from bad to worse: Seth, the alpha of my local werewolf pack, owns the units, and he suspects foul play of the supernatural variety. The only problem? Supernaturals play for keeps, and this one holds a very personal grudge against yours truly.

The thing about monsters is, they show up when you least expect it. I come home from a romantic weekend with my feller and found one sitting on my couch. This'un wanted me to hunt down Athena's Gorgoneion, an ancient Greek amulet, and was willing to pay dearly for the work. Meanwhile, my friend Miss Jenny went missing; her feller Proteus, a primordial Greek god, was trapped in his house by cyclops; and a hellhole opened up out on Devil's Branch. Trouble was brewing and brewing big. Between the monsters and Greek gods popping up ever where I turned, I had my hands full, and I only knowed one way to deal with trouble: Head on and full of fight. A Magic, Mayhem & Monsters Story.

When people touch me, I foresee their deaths. The visions are mine. Only I can choose what to do about them. While traveling cross-country searching for the blood and pain I'd foreseen in a vision, I landed in rural Ohio courtesy of a kindly soul. Lou was a good woman, a solid, faithful, salt of the Earth type. And on Friday, she was going to die. I'd long ago learned that nothing I did would deter fate's course. But I couldn't leave Ohio without trying to save Lou. Fate, though, had more in store for her than a simple death by hit-and-run. Far more. And her fate brought me face to face with a terror from my own past, a terror I had to stop before it used Lou to unleash the wild magic and create something much worse than the death I had foreseen. A prequel to the Kaya Fox Series.

Before she hunted monsters, Sunshine Walkingstick was a mom. And she'd do anything to protect her son. I loved my boy Henry more'n anything in the whole wide world. Despite the way his daddy walked out on me when he found out I was pregnant. Despite having to drop out of high school when I was just a kid to raise him on my own. I loved him with my whole heart. So when it come time for him to start school, I done my best by him, from buying him new school clothes to planning an end-of-summer picnic celebration. Then I did something no mama should do: I trusted the deep wood. And I learned just how far I'd go to keep my precious boy safe. What would you do for your young'un? What wouldn't you do?

When my mama gets kidnapped from prison, it don't take too long for the culprit to come forward. Seems Atlanta's head vampire's got a little problem with her vampires up and dying on her, and she's fingered me as the very body what can figure out what's going on. Me? I ain't got no problem watching the monster population die off a little at a time. But that vampire? She's determined to save her fledglings, and she ain't afraid to hurt my family and friends to guarantee my help. Normally I aim to kill monsters. This time, though, I gotta figure out how to save 'em, else Mama and me both might end up worse than dead. Don't miss this exciting conclusion to the Sunshine Walkingstick Series.

A week and a half ago, a vampire walked into my brother's bar and tried to hire me to find my twice missing mother. I said no, naturally, but that was before another magic-wielder targeted me and my brother in an attempt to draw Mom out into the open. Now, the supernatural community is up in arms over her disappearance, said vampire is salivating for my help, and the alpha of the local pack is trying to make amends for being a naughty werewolf. Not to mention that my brother and I are trying to come to terms with our new status as each other's familiar. I would love to step back and relax for a while, but I've got bigger fish to fry, namely tracking down evidence to help the District Attorney strengthen the case against a local bigwig. The problem? The bigwig is also a supernatural. With half the Council on my case already, can I afford to antagonize another powerful supernatural, especially when he may hold the key to finding my mother?

When my boy Henry was killed, I tracked a pooka through the deep wood for three days with no food in my gut and only my daddy's hunting knife for comfort. Was what got me into the monster killing business, that pooka, and I ain't regretted a single day of it since. The day I stumbled on a four-legged critter with human eyes, the rightness of my revenge begun to unravel, leading me to a clan of two-natured shifters what'd been living under my nose the whole time. And when the two-natured started showing up in odd places, stalking humans in a very unnatural way, weren't nothing I could do but dig to the bottom of it. And what I found turned my world and ever thing I knowed upside down. A Magic, Mayhem & Monsters Story.
