Coming Soon: A Supernatural Sleuth
Magic and Mystery in St. Augustine
Lucy Ward is a no-nonsense investigator with the Paranormal Bureau of Investigation, whose sixth sense for the supernatural often lands her in situations that most people would rather ignore. A native of St. Augustine, Lucy has been trained to handle spirits, haunted relics, and other paranormal activity—but nothing prepared her for him.
Enter Captain Robert Thatcher, an eighteenth-century privateer who was struck down in his prime. When Lucy accidentally awakens Thatcher’s ghost during a routine investigation, she’s thrust into a centuries-old mystery filled with love, betrayal, and the long-buried secrets of St. Augustine’s haunted past. Thatcher, bewildered by the modern world but tied to Lucy through his long-lost love, becomes both an invaluable partner and a reminder that some spirits are far from ready to rest.
Together with Archie, Lucy’s sassy and surprisingly helpful parrot familiar—who’s been in her family longer than she realized—this unconventional trio uncovers the supernatural mysteries lurking in the shadows of history. From solving murders both old and new to breaking the bonds of dark magic, Lucy and Thatcher’s journey takes them across time and space, blurring the line between the living and the dead.
As they unravel the secrets of Thatcher’s past, Lucy must decide whether helping him move on means losing a partner she’s grown to care for—or whether they can carve out a new future, even in the strangest of circumstances. In a world where love, ghosts, and the paranormal collide, nothing is ever what it seems.
