They thought they'd killed him the year before...

They're still in pain, both mental and psychological. Kate, perhaps worse than her partner Alice because she killed her only daughter, Jackie, because the girl had been corrupted by the bruja's evil. Now, it appears that Jackie's been sighted around town, scarred and dangerous. Plus, bodies are piling up. Seems they didn't kill the bruja the first time--but if they don't now, both their families and their town is at risk. Few male writers create engaging and interesting women. Hetley is one of the rare men who can actually write a woman character that's real, interesting, and convincing. His fantasy is spellbinding--well described magick that captures your imagination. And his suspense keeps you on the edge of your seat reading as fast as you can. I highly recommend Hetley's books for any fantasy lover who enjoys a solid storyline with people that will have you coming back for more.

magical urban fantasy

Stonefort, Maine is an unusual town because of the two prominent families that live there. The female Haskells are witches and The Witch is Alice who lives in the House, a living entity that has rules, changes form and influences the actions of people who live there. The Morgans are selkie shapechangers who possess the magical dragon and gives a tear to those Morgans it deem worthy. The tear is magic in its purest form and allows the Morgans to communicate with other. When Alice's lover Kate is driving through the woods, she finds a body in a stone circle with its heart cut out, Kate, who doesn't believe in magic even though she used magic to help kill, feels the stones strengthen her. Another corpse in the same condition is found on Ben Morgan's grave even though Ben is alive. He is fascinated by a Peruvian artifact that is dark magic and wants to get a hold on him. Kate is seeing the body of her dead daughter Jackie whose body was never recovered. When someone near and dear to Kate disappears and will be sacrificed Kate must suspend her disbelief, retrieve the artifact and stop the killer. This sequel to DRAGON'S EYE is a magical urban fantasy that combines loyalty, trust, love and acceptance into a plot that is filled with enhancements, dark and white magic and sorcery. The people who populate the town listen to Alice because they know Haskell witches can help them and never will tell because of the Morgan shifter. There is danger in trying magic and love and learns that on a life of their own. James A. Hetley is an extraordinary writer who writes a very original and entertaining story. Harriet Klausner
