Blood and Moonlight

Catrin is an orphan living in the city of Collis when she watches a murder happen in the street. That moment drags her into a series of killings, and the only thing anyone can say for certain is that the murderer will kill again.

The case goes to Simon, a detective described as mysterious and brilliant, whose grasp of how a predator thinks proves frighteningly accurate. As the grisly crimes pile up, Catrin ends up standing between the killer and the man hunting him. She also carries a secret of her own: forbidden magic that comes from moonlight and is certain to make her an outcast if it is discovered.

This is a dark fantasy built around a serial killer investigation, with a young woman and a detective working toward the same end. The romance between them is a slow burn. Expect suspense, twists and a hunt that grows more dangerous as the bodies mount.

Catrin's power may be the one thing that can protect her and the people she loves from becoming the next victims. The book opens a two-book series, and the story of Catrin and Simon concludes in Silence and Shadow.
