Grayling Cross
Why is magic still a secret in Edmonton? It’s thanks to good PR.
Psychic Anna Gareau and public relations expert Collie Kostyna keep
things quiet for local magicians and for their biggest client, the Embassy—
an underground supernatural society.
In Grayling Cross, an investigator arrives in town on the trail of a missing
teenage psychic. He hires Anna and Collie to be his liaisons to the
local magic community.
They soon learn that their new client is well-known to the Embassy. He has a
knack for supressing magic, leaving magicians powerless and vulnerable.
The Embassy tells Anna and Collie to get their client out of town.
Then an Embassy employee is murdered in a house nobody should
be able to enter, with a weapon that shouldn’t have killed him. Was Anna
and Collie’s anti-magic client involved? And why do they keep hearing about
a northern Alberta ghost town called Grayling Cross?
In trying to answer those questions, Anna and Collie face unveiled
threats from their employers, a city full of dangerous suspects, and the
feeling that reality and morality are shifting around them.
Grayling Cross is a sequel to Gayleen Froese’s supernatural
mystery, Touch. It is slated for release from NeWest Press in 2011.
