Read OnlineShe’s in for the ride of her life…or death
All Deirdre Boyd wants to do is trail ride, and her modest rural community is a horsewoman’s dream. Miles upon miles of trails lace the landscape, and despite rumors that it’s haunted, Deirdre has never seen any goblins or specters, much less the legendary horseback-riding Black Witch of Fairy Glen.
But there is something sinister threatening her little piece of heaven. The local real estate mogul, who already hemmed them in with a monster suburbia to the west, wants to build fireproof mega-mansions on the ridgeline to the east, and plans to bulldoze his way through Fairy Glen to get to the top. But it’s 2007. The real estate market is tanking. So where is he getting his money? And does it have anything to do with the dead bodies showing up around the neighborhood?
Meanwhile, Deirdre’s daughter Rebecca has a mysterious new coworker who’s totally not her style. But she’s falling for him anyway…while falling deeper into his world of muscle cars and meth dealers.
As the Santa Ana winds pick up, wildfire won't be the only thing threatening their lives.
If mom and daughter would just talk occasionally, maybe they could figure out what’s going on in Fairy Glen…before the whole place goes up in flames.
A mashup of Big Little Lies, Twin Peaks, and Trixie Belden set in Southern California horse country, this rural noir with a dash of supernatural is a little bit cozy, a lot suspenseful, and brimming with action.
The first book in a new suspense series starring the crime-solving horsewomen of Fairy Glen.
