About this ebook

“If you like X-Files and Ilona Andrews, you’ll love this awesome, well-crafted and unusual tale!” —Patricia Briggs, #1 New York Times–bestselling author
 
The girl with the full-body tattoo is not just another runaway. She’s dead, for starters, and her veins are emptied of blood and oozing a strange, jelly-like substance. To Maureen Keslyn, seasoned paranormal investigator, former FBI agent, and new owner of the Shadow Valley Manor retirement home, this isn’t just a corpse. It’s a sign that the Medusa, a dangerous paranormal hybrid, is on another killing spree.
 
Maureen and her team—Jake, the local sheriff; Matt, the Shadow Valley Manor cook whose knife skills extend beyond the kitchen; and eighteen-year-old Sophronia, who has an uncanny affinity for ghosts—are determined to hunt down and eliminate the creature, but they’ll have to deal with some perilous complications along the way . . .
 
“A smart and tenacious band of heroes—led by one kick-ass heroine.” —Tammy Kaehler, award-winning author of the Kate Reilly Mystery Series
 
“One of the best and most unique series I’ve read in a very long time.” —Susan Spann, author of The Shinobi Mysteries

About the author

Kerry Schafer writes fantasy with its teeth sunk into reality, mystery that delves into the paranormal, and women’s fiction that embraces the dark and twisty realms of humanity. The first two books of her Between trilogy (Between and Wakeworld) were published through Ace Books and Penguin. Due to the ever-shifting landscape of publishing, the concluding book of the trilogy—The Nothing—was self-published. Kerry's Paranormal Mystery series, Dead Before Dying, was recently acquired by Diversion Books, and rumor has it she is currently working on a women's fiction project, just to keep things interesting.
