It is finally here! Book two in the thrilling Providence SCU series, Possession is Nine-Tenths of the Law!
A few months into her assignment with the Providence Supernatural Crimes Unit, Officer Mary Riley is still learning the rules of a city most people never see. Her first exorcism ends with a teenage girl saved, a partner asking questions Riley can’t answer, and a notebook full of symbols no fifteen-year-old should know.
Then the Diocese of Providence arrives. The Church wants in, and it sends Special Envoy Helen Bernard, a sharp, unsettling reader of people who seems to know more than she says. Together, Riley and Helen dig through a century of sealed Church files and uncover something no one believed possible: a serial possession. Victim after victim, going back to the 1920s, linked by a single cursed object. And with every host, the entity behind it grows stronger and smarter.
While the case pulls Riley deeper into the Church’s secrets, her old life refuses to stay separate. She is rebuilding things with Maggie, the woman she loves, while lying to her every day about what she does. Nights bring vivid dreams and a tall, silent shadow watching from the edge of sight. Between a stolen spell book that may never have existed, creatures slipping through a thinning veil, and an evil that knows exactly where to hurt her, Riley is running out of time to stop the possessions before they hit closer to home.
Fast, dark, and grounded in the real streets of Providence, Possession Is Nine-Tenths of the Law is the second Providence SCU novel, blending police procedural, supernatural horror, and Lovecraftian menace. Perfect for fans of The X-Files, Supernatural, and The Dresden Files.
