FROM EXCITING AUTHOR OF LGBTQIA ROMANCE PELAAM

Book five in The Devil's in the Details series

Sometimes, a friend in need can be deadly in deed.

Keegan has an abusive stepfather, Frank, and is bullied at college. He dodges bullies, led by Owen, by hiding close to the river. He tells his friend about the attacks and his narrow escape. The next day in college, pondweed is found in Owen's locker, and he blames Keegan. The pondweed is sent to John Bull, and on examination is found to have a paranormal resonance, so he sends Emery, Alex and Kadin to investigate.

When Owen is found drowned in a bathtub, secured with pondweed, the team believe they're dealing with a grindylow—a river hag. They need to establish whether the creature is acting for its own ends or at someone's direction. Circumstances point to Keegan, but the team can't find the connection and feel time is running out.

The next victim is Keegan's stepfather, and with Keegan missing, Kadin decides to try to communicate with his spirit. He learns that the grindylow is protecting Keegan, but the team know that its nature means that Bo, now Keegan's lover, will be the next victim.

But first, they need to find Keegan.
