World Tree Girl

"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
