Demon's Quest
About this ebook
"I want to bust his nose," I muttered, making the girl laugh. I hefted the tray up and carried it to his table.
"I had to wait two clicks to get in here."
"I told you to call ahead," I said, settling the tray on a stand and handing off his noodle bowl, followed by the plate of ox-roast.
"I thought you were making that up."
"I never lie about food," I said. "Is there anything else?" I swept the tray off the stand.
"Ex-ASD?"
"That's what the Director said. And he's not high on my list, unless it's the list of people I never want to see again."
"What's the problem with Director Keef?"
"Where do you want me to start?"
"Start with the most recent."
"My dead daughter," I snapped and walked away.
After Reah's brush with death, she is understandably distrustful of most of her mates. Striking out on her own, she is determined to investigate a rash of child disappearances across the universes, in and outside the Alliances. The evil she discovers in the course of her investigations could bring all worlds to their knees if Reah doesn't find a way to destroy it.
About the author
Reinvention/Reincarnation. Those words describe Connie best. She has worked as a janitor, a waitress, a mower of lawns and house cleaner, a clerk, secretary, teacher, bookseller and (finally) an author. The last occupation is the best one, because she sees it as a labor of love and therefore no labor at all.
Connie has lived in Oklahoma all her life, with brief forays into other states for visits. She and her husband have been married for more years than she prefers to tell and together they have one son.
After earning an MFA in Film Production and Animation from the University of Oklahoma, Connie taught courses in those subjects for a few years before taking a job as a manager for Borders. When she left the company in 2007, she fully intended to find a desk job somewhere. She found the job. And the desk. At home, writing.
