When the Fae Queen sends her High Minister to evaluate Misty Valley, failure is not an option.
Monique von Underbeak doesn't arrive quietly. She rolls into town in a nightmare-black coach pulled by creatures straight out of a bad dream--driven by a cloaked specter only I can see. Apparently discovering I'm a witch wasn't enough. Now I'm on the radar of one of the most dangerous figures in the Fae Court. And one of the oldest.
As the mayor scrambles to impress her with plans for a Grand Prix race, a towering new troll is hired to repair the valley's bridges overnight. Pixies begin vanishing without a trace. And when hikers uncover a body buried under a rockslide--only for it to disappear before the authorities arrive--it becomes clear something is very wrong in Misty Valley.
Someone is hunting pixies.
Someone is moving bodies.
And someone is watching me far too closely.
With search parties forming, tempers rising, and my own café staff shaken when one of ours goes missing, I'm forced deeper into an investigation that's spiraling fast--especially when the elderly von Underbeak pulls me inside a time-bubble for reasons she refuses to explain.
Then the High Minister is found dead.
Her estranged grandson arrives just in time to discover the body... and his pixie fiancée vanishes the next morning. Suddenly every suspect has a motive, every secret feels lethal, and the truth behind the disappearances is darker--and older--than anyone suspects.
If I can't unravel the mystery before the valley tears itself apart, Misty Valley may lose more than pixies and politics. It might lose its future.
Tall, Dark and Troll blends high-stakes urban fantasy intrigue with a cozy paranormal mystery--featuring fae politics, missing pixies, spectral secrets, and a fledgling witch learning that some evaluations are more than bureaucratic.
