Sweet Molly Sue: A Feary Tales Novella (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781732089884)

Sweet Molly Sue: Inheritance

In Junebug, Oklahoma, the dead don't stay silent.

Molly Sue Araña is a Death Investigator-someone who listens when bodies can no longer speak. She restores names, answers, and truth to those erased by violence.

Then the pattern begins: two men found dead without a cause, as if they had just lain down and died. A third body appears in an alley, beaten, stabbed, and bleeding.

All three men are marked with twisted arabesque Celtic tattoos and an unfamiliar sigil inked in an ornate script that contradicts the dead bodies.

Two more deaths follow-quiet, clean deaths-each victim's dying sight fixed on a note with words meant to linger, aimed less at law enforcement and more at the one person trained to read what the dead can't say.

The flourish of ink on the paper mirrors the ink of the tattoos on the three dead men.

Five deaths. One design. A ritual hiding in plain sight.

Ink becomes evidence. Evil becomes a weapon. And the nearer Molly Sue gets to the truth, the clearer it becomes the marks aren't meant for the sheriff-they're meant for her.

The killer isn't leaving clues. He's leaving an invitation.

He knows what she inherited, and he wants to see what she'll do with it.

The killer wants to be found-by the right person.

As the bodies multiply, Molly Sue hastens to identify how the victims died, decode the ritual, and stop the next death-and she must decide what she's willing to trade for the truth-before the line between death investigator and hunted disappears.

A tale of ordinary madness, unnatural horrors, and the blurred boundaries between reality and ritual, Sweet Molly Sue: Inheritance is a chilling journey into the heart of small-town secrets and the price of chasing ghosts.

Normal is an illusion. What is normal for the spider is chaos for the fly.--Morticia Addams

FROM THE PUBLISHER

This modern gothic-noir crime horror novella is rooted in the unnatural-not the supernatural. It contains violence, ritualized murder, and psychologically intense themes.

The publisher tells you this frankly, so if you wish to avoid the agitated excitement, the tension, and the psychological triggers of this factionalized tale, you are urged, calmly and sincerely, to close this book and find something a bit happier and sunnier for you to read.

Reader discretion is advised.
