My 2018 novel Foreign Thoughts is back out in the world with a gnarly face-lift thanks to the amazing @druhuf!

Grab your copy of my paranormal horror novel, soaked in grief and small town secrets. Links are in my bio.

⚓️ Annabelle’s whole life had been leading up to becoming just another family legacy in the small town of Lodestar, Maryland. Her father, a long time federal marshal with an ability to see memories from others, had prepped her for this moment. What Annabelle wasn’t ready for was her father’s untimely death.

⚓️Gripped with fear and uncertainty, Annabelle makes the change to follow in her father’s footsteps and protect the small town with all the paranormal secrets inside. In her journey to becoming a fed and learning to hone her abilities, she is stuck in a loop of losing herself and finding her way. As many times as she tries to drown her demons, they seem to have learned how to swim by @the_ginger_nerd

The little horror anthology that could is now available in paperback and eBook through all major booksellers! Or better yet head to @brackish_books_ki and support a local business who does an amazing job highlighting local authors. 📚

*Book not actually for kids 🤣 by @the_ginger_nerd
