The Miss Adventure Misadventures
She’s an accident waiting to happen...
WINNER: BEST URBAN FANTASY by INDIES TODAY
HONORABLE MENTION: FANTASY/SCIENCE FICTION by THE INDIE AUTHOR PROJECT
With the power to take a ghostly form and target people using their mementos and heirlooms, Adina Venture is the invisible assassin you never see coming. She doesn’t do contracts. Just gruesome accidents, untraceable and custom-made.
When a magical secret society accuses Adina of murdering one of their own, she must find the real killer to get them off her back. Literally–because until the case is closed, she will be magically bound to Chief Inquisitor Levi Breitling, an infamously powerful investigator with the ability to melt minds–and a searing hatred for traitors.
But what begins as a simple clearing of her name leads the pair deep into an unseen side of Sin City–one that’s rife with Operators of magic. Club moguls who manufacture memories. Cutthroat businessmen who can stop time. And beneath it all lies a force that no one, not even Adina, can control. Suddenly, proving her innocence isn’t as easy as she thought it would be. And the longer it takes to find the culprit, the tighter the bond between her and Inquisitor Breitling seems to grow…
Death by Miss Adventure is a contemporary gothic fantasy series full of magical mystery and simmering, slow-burn romance perfect for fans of the Dresden Files and the Sookie Stackhouse mysteries.
Available on Amazon in paperback, e-book, and Kindle Unlimited.
Book One also available on Audible.
The Dead Mall Series

But when she and Rex become trapped in the mall overnight, they discover something much worse than the slow death of retail lurking within the walls.
