The Other Realm
4 primary works
Book 1
I can tell when you’re lying. Every. Single. Time.
I’m Jinx. As a private investigator, being a walking, talking lie detector is a useful skill – but let’s face it, it’s not normal. You’d think it would make my job way too easy, but even with my weird skills, I still haven’t been able to track down my parent’s killers.
When I’m hired to find a missing university student, I hope to find her propped up at a bar – yet my gut tells me there’s more to this case than a party girl gone wild. Firstly, she’s a bookish soul who’s as likely to go off the rails as Mother Theresa. Secondly, I’m not the only one on her trail; she’s also being tracked by the implacable and oh-so-sexy Inspector Stone.
Stone and I team up, and he shoves me into a realm where magic is real – a place where there are vampyrs and werewolves, dragons and trolls. And where my skills are more than just detecting lies…
Oh, and my dog? He’s a freaking hellhound who can manipulate the magical realms themselves.
I need to find the girl.
I need to discover who killed my parents.
And I need to find out more about the attractive but mysterious Zachary Stone…
Book 2
I’m Jinx, a run-of-the-mill private investigator … except I’m also a walking, talking lie detector. Oh, and I belong to magical realm known as the Other.
Murder isn’t usually my gig, but when I’m hired to investigate the death of a dryad called Reggie, I agree to help out because I know his grieving widow. It should be an easy case to crack, a mugging gone wrong, but the murder scene photos show it was anything but. Reggie’s death has all the hallmarks of my parents’ murders so I’ll stop at nothing to finding his killers. It’s so important I’d even be willing to tag in Stone to help – if I could find him…
Reggie was into some bad stuff involving a drug called Boost. Take it, and you play Russian roulette because either you get high or you die. As the drug claims another victim, I find myself with a new sidekick who is determined to fight its evil influence and he just happens to be the king of the dragon community.
Now I have two deaths to solve and one suave dragon king along for the ride.
I need to find Reggie’s murderer.
I need to discover who killed my parents.
And I need to keep my distance from the charismatic dragon Emory, who refuses to take no for an answer…
Book 3
I’m Jinx, a private investigator, a truth seeker and an empath. Even with all that magic at my fingertips, I don’t know if I can save my best friend.
And she’s not the only ill one. The magical creatures of the Other Realm are falling sick – even the supposedly immortal ones. The illness is striking two by two like a plague filled Noah’s Ark. The mermen asked for help first, but it turns out they’re just the tip of the iceberg.
Gato and I need to find the source of the sickness, to stop it spreading and to find the antidote. Emory’s adoptive parents are two of the ones that have fallen sick and I can’t watch him lose his pseudo parents when I’ve already lost mine. I’ll do anything to save the stricken victims - even if it means working with my parents’ own killer…
I know this much, the illness isn’t natural, and whoever is behind this has nothing but sinister intentions.
I need to find the perpetrator.
I need to find the cure.
And I need to work out how I feel about Emory. I don’t know which task will be harder…
Book 4
I’m Jinx, a private investigator, a truth seeker and a wizard. You'd think of all those skills would make it so easy for me to get to the heart of things. And honestly? I thought I knew what had happened to my parents that night - I thought I finally knew the truth about how they'd died. But I've taken a tumble down the rabbit hole and everything I thought I knew was topsy turvy.
I'm trying to get my head screwed on right, but some rude SOB keeps trying to kill me. Worse, I think it's the same guy that targeted my parents. I need to stay alive long enough to bring him to justice. The only problem with that, is that it looks like we've got a mole; someone betrays us in the worst way, and we need to find out who.
I need to find my would be assassin, and stop him before he puts the nails in my coffin.
I need to locate the leak - and plug it - permanently.
Oh and I probably need to stop the rampaging ouroboros too, with Emory's help, of course.
