ONE FOR ANOTHER

Hennessey Reed, #1

Bordello madam Hennessey Reed suspects even the combined magic of laudanum and Irish whiskey will not soothe her distress. The girl lying on the undertaker’s table will remain dead, her wounds horrifying, inexplicable, and reminiscent of Indian sacrifice.

Hennessey treasures the uneasy peace she has found in the remote town of Melancholy, in Idaho Territory. However, when three more young girls are murdered she recognizes one of the victims, and her hard-won equilibrium is compromised.

Hennessey decides U.S. Marshal Rafael Cooper requires her help to find the killer, acknowledging he may not necessarily agree. Nevertheless, with her Bowie strapped to her calf and wolfhound, Raven, at her side, Hennessey sets out to investigate—a one-woman stampede.

DYING GRASS MOON

Hennessey Reed, #2

Melancholy, Idaho Territory, 1882. Bordello madam Hennessey Reed learns a reclusive family has been shot dead, bound in pairs, and dumped on the outskirts of town. Were they chosen at random, left as a warning, or, as members of a burgeoning religion, murdered because of their beliefs?

Encouraged by past success as an amateur sleuth, Hennessey barrels headlong into the search for the killer. Unfortunately, a laudanum addiction and penchant for Irish whiskey can be most unhelpful when hunting a murderer. So, too, strained relations with the town marshal, a cagey Pinkerton agent, and an independent wolfhound who follows her nose, but rarely instruction.

Hennessey knows present-day events are often rooted in the past. When the investigation leads her across societal boundaries and county lines, she is pitched against villains ready and willing not only to pay the ultimate price to wreak havoc and exact revenge, but also to kill whomever gets in their way.
