"All the good stuff-murder, mystery, romance, and witchcraft! Well written with strong characters and intriguing plot." - ★★★★★ Amazon Review

After an afternoon of mind-numbingly boring surveillance in the woods, Private Investigator Raven Cane goes for a twilight jog to clear her head, only to discover a gruesome murder in the town's most notorious cave, Hatchet Hollow. Minutes later, the impossibly handsome Lieutenant Zander Stone arrives at the scene to take over, but Raven has a hard time letting the case go. Why did the killer cut off the victim's fingers? More importantly, who would do such a thing?

After a failed attempt at tracking down the elusive Marden Balik, aka, the legendary witch of the Great Shadow Mountains, Zander dives headfirst into Devil's Den's most recent murder, only to uncover twists and turns at every step-including a secret book of curses that may, or may not, exist. As the list of suspects grows, Zander does his best to keep Raven at arm's length. But Raven is persistent, nosing her way into his case, making it increasingly difficult to keep his concentration on the task at hand, and off of her sultry body.

And when another woman is found brutally murdered, Zander worries that Raven has gotten too close to the investigation... close enough to put her directly in the killer's sights.

Hatchet Hollow is book two in the Black Rose Mystery series
