A long Krewe of Hunters short story, or a short novella—approximately 20,000 words—Born on the 4th of July takes place as the holiday nears and comes upon us.
Angela and Jackson and their adopted son Corby have headed with Adam Harrison and the ghost of his son, Josh, to pay tribute at the graves of Adam’s family.
But while they’re there, the ghost of an old serviceman beckons to Angela.
He’s just seen his daughter, Annie, kidnapped. She had brought coffee and flowers to his grave. A murder of crows had burst into the sky; what appeared to be the giant figure of a man dressed like a crow had doused her with something on a rag—and disappeared through the graveyard and behind a group of family mausoleums.
Like Angela, his daughter is expecting a child any day.
While Jackson worries about Angela’s activity as her due date draws near, it’s precisely her condition that makes Angela certain she can’t leave this one to others—she must help in any way that she can. Jackson, of course, can do the crawling around and physical work. She’ll get into the cemeteries office and begin all that she can online.
But the sensible way of doing things doesn’t always work as planned.
Angela will find herself dead center in a conspiracy that has gone on far longer than what they’ve seen, literally deep in it!
Deep underground, a victim herself.
But she knows she has Jackson, Corby, Adam, Josh, and the Krewe behind her. Nor will she forget her own abilities as they face down a malicious evil that has already claimed several victims.
But they’ll need the help of the living and the dead to make July 4th a genuinely happy holiday!
Genre: Paranormal Romance
