A Matter of Justice
When the plane carrying P.O.S. Officer Schaeffer goes
down, it’s no accident. She and her partner lose the prisoner they’re escorting
to trial, and the local elves nearly lose their lives protecting the unicorns
and a grove of dryads. With the aircraft and its passengers on the ground,
Schaeffer has to secure her prisoner before the woman can create any more
mischief—and with dusk closing, the local unicorns seeking vengeance, and the
trolls beginning to stir it’s not going to be easy.
A Matter of Justice is set in a world where magic has returned,
pixie dust is the new drug of choice, and humans live side by side with
creatures of legend. With new crimes forming around new resources and new
markets, the Paranormal Operations Squad, walks the edge of two worlds, trying
to bring justice to both.

(ebook to Smashwords and DriveThruFiction only)
Every year the fish come down from the stars,
and every year Faulknor hopes they come for him. Well, this year he’s tired of
waiting; this year it’s his turn to do the seeking. This year, he’s going to
catch himself the fish of his dreams. This year, he’s coming for them… just as
soon as he’s finished with the assassin, and the elf with its human and orc
sidekicks. Yeah, after that he’s going to find himself a fish.

Luck Among Servants
I’d always considered myself one of the lucky
ones, lucky that the slavers had taken me and left my family, lucky to have
found a master as kind as the one I had, just… lucky, so, when my master asked
me to ride one of the many-legged spurline on an early morning errand, I
considered myself lucky to have the honour. I never thought what it might be
like when my luck ran out, and my master wasn’t around to intervene…
