Poisoned Leaves (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781764157001)

Find the killer. Stay under the radar. All in time for tea.

Rhianne Alkenn is thrust into the heart of a murder investigation as a police consultant. But when her gargoyle employee becomes the prime suspect, the investigation becomes personal.

She's not very good with relationships or accepting help, but a growing set of quirky friends won't take no for an answer: her cheeky incubus best friend, her wise familiar Toto, a sassy half-gargoyle lawyer and a pathologist who can tell you what she is but would then have to kill you.

As the layers of the investigation unfold, Rhianne must navigate the relationships with her ambitious witch mother, elusive elf father, and a blossoming connection with tech mage Kai.

Oh, and did she mention that her powers are not supposed to exist? Her task: solve the case, keep her powers hidden, and then return to being a regular halfling. Piece of cake, right?

Note: While part of a series, Poisoned Leaves can be read as a standalone - written in Australian English and set in the magic city of Sydney.

If you enjoy books by K M Shea, Heather G. Harris and Kim Harrison, then you'll love this riveting urban fantasy story with a touch of humour and romance.
