Okay, questioning the kelpie would be a good starting point. Hopefully she’d know something. This was legwork, the equivalent of knocking on doors. Except I’m going to be searching the banks for a carnivorous horse…

If I go looking for the kelpie, what kind of precautions should I take? I mean, according to folklore, kelpies drown their victims, then tear them to pieces to eat them. Is that accurate?

Grave Dance

Whoever said dead men tell no tales obviously never met Alex Craft.

After a month spent recovering from a vicious fight with a sorcerer, grave witch Alex Craft is ready to get back to solving murders by raising the dead. With her love life in turmoil thanks to the disappearance of Fae Investigation Bureau agent Falin Andrews and a shocking “L” word confession from Death himself, Alex is eager for the distractions of work. But her new case turns out to be a deadly challenge.

The police hire Alex to consult on a particularly strange investigation in the nature preserve south of Nekros City. The strange part: There are no corpses, only fragments of them. A serial killer is potentially on the loose, and Alex has no way to raise a shade without a body, so she’ll have to rely on the magic of others to find leads. But as she begins investigating, a creature born of the darkest magic comes after her. Someone very powerful wants to make sure the only thing she finds is a dead end—her own.

    Sounds fun! And informative for steering clear of Kelpies! 🙂

  9. “Whoever said dead men tell no tales obviously never met Alex Craft.” Well, I’d sure like to listen to Alex Craft’s tale for sure considering he is dead? Ha ha! Thanks for sharing 🙂
