We are very excited to welcome you back to Lady Jane's Salon Raleigh-Durham at Cafe Carolina at the Arboretum in Cary. Some great authors will be joining us this month. So without further ado...
JUDY TEEL will read from SHIFTY MAGIC...
"A tough teenaged girl hunts a serial
killer in a paranormal dystopian world.
Abandoned at
birth, Addison Kittner's been on her own since she was a kid--ever since the
paranormal terrorists attacked cities around the world. Battling creatures that
go bump in the night nearly destroyed human society. Good thing not all
paranormals were evil and the terrorists were eventually stopped. Bad thing?
Nothing would ever be the same again.
Now Addison
makes her living as a private investigator and bounty hunter. One night she
comes across a girl about to be killed by three rogue vampires. Addison kicks
some vamp butt and saves the girl, even when one of the vamps escapes. Just her
luck, he turns up dead the next morning, inspiring the vampire leaders to put
pressure on her to solve the case or take the rap. As if that wasn't bad
enough, her ex-lover, werewolf FBI agent, Cooper Daine, approaches her and
gives her an offer she can't refuse...a paycheck. Mixing business with lust is
never a good idea, but neither is starving, so she accepts.
But as the body
count builds, Addison finds herself embroiled in an ever deepening and
dangerous mystery. One that leads her to something frighteningly personal. Her
unknown heritage."
