Acacia Sheridan is a private detective with a special gift for communicating with the supernatural. Her clientele includes ghosts, demons, fae, and many more denizens of the otherworld…which makes for some interesting cases. I think we’ll have some fun following what happens as she and her office assistant and somewhat prickly cousin, Oliver (also gifted with the same perceptive abilities), bring their deductive talents and sense of humour to bear in dealing with Olympia Investigations’ most unusual clients.

The Shifter Plague NEW!
When a legally blind woman asks Olympia Investigations to investigate the murder of an apparent shapeshifter, Acacia pays attention, even if the local police won’t. Following the scent of the murderer, Acacia becomes deeply involved with the shifter community of Turnabout Landing–which is nothing like what she expects. The trail of accusations and networks leads to vampires, a missing lighthouse keeper, a deadly shifter virus, and the echoes of a past case.
With her assistant Oliver keeping secrets, her relationship with Detective Ellis Ames turning rocky, and Acacia finding herself a target of an unknown foe, she’s barely keeping ahead of a pack of troubles in the first full-length novel in the Olympia Investigations series.

The fourth Acacia Sheridan tale releases December 17, 2018, and it’s the biggest O.I. story yet! This new novella will be the first Olympia Investigations story available in a print edition. When a local coven of urban witches mistakenly summons a malevolent spirit, they look to Acacia to help track him down. Inconsistencies in the witches’ story make Acacia suspect they’re not telling her everything—and then the murders start.
With her assistant Oliver stressing over an unfortunate witch encounter in his past, a demon on the loose, and a handsome police detective who wants to know too much, Acacia’s up to her sixth sense in supernatural trouble.
