Life has been complicated since her mom got sick, and now her dad is talking about wanting to move their family away from the town Miv has lived in her whole life—because of the murders. Young women are dying, everyone is afraid, and no one knows who the culprit might be.
But as far as Miv is concerned, leaving Yorkshire and her best friend Sharon simply isn’t an option, no matter the dangers lurking round their way; or the strangeness at home that started the day Miv’s mum stopped talking. Perhaps if she could solve the case of the disappearing women, they could stay after all?

Beyond Paydirt – Altered

They went looking for gold. Instead, they found a ripple in reality, a portal, a hint of something the old stories called a great dream.
This is a story about gold, yes, but also about love, belief, and the precise moment when one choice bends the world off its axis. It’s where small-town warmth collides with questions too large for any one town to answer, and where romance, mystery, and science fiction meet at a crossroads marked by ancient stone.
Spring comes to Kettle Springs with light on a shotgun barrel and promises in the air. But legends have a way of finding those who still listen. A hidden bookstore opens its door. The Legend of the Lost Man whispers across sacred land. And something older, colder, and not quite of this earth waits beneath it all.
