Urban Fantasy Mystery
Outside the Circle Collection, British Urban Fantasy Mysteries
Inspired by the Grimm Fairy Tales and Enid Blyton’s children’s books about working as a team to solve mysteries…this series will feature an indomitable heroine who teams up with a dedicated group of multi-cultural friends to solve supernatural mysteries in present-day Kent, UK.
Meet Abbie Grimshaw...a Grimm descendant.
Death Takes a Detour
An Outside the Circle Mystery, Book 1
A murder. A mystery. A legacy to uphold.
Feuding with her over-protective mother, Abigail Grimshaw rebelliously stops at St. Michael's church against her mother's order to "hurry home," and runs straight into danger.
There, Abbie encounters an unexpected supernatural complication: she sees—and talks to—the Earl of Ashford. He died in 1816, but death doesn't stop this Regency ghost from charging Abbie with the safety of two scared children. A demon has murdered their mother.
She never imagined life would give her an actual mystery to solve, innocents to protect, and evil to banish, but Abbie discovers that she's a Grimm, like her mother before her. There's a long legacy of defending the innocent at stake.
If she cannot master child-guarding and demon-slaying simultaneously, her own legend will be short-lived.
