Ever feel like you're being watched in the woods? You should.
Heart Breaker is an urban fantasy thriller set in the wilds of the Canadian Rockies, where cryptids stalk the tree line and Indigenous legends bleed into the real world.
Everyone used to say I drank too much, partied too hard, and chased all the wrong women. I miss those days.
That was before I met a man named Bear. Back when I was blind to the worlds around me. Before I knew about my Coyote blood, my ghost dog Hank, or that my best friend George was part moose spirit.
Now I’m a caretaker of The Scar, a rift between worlds that most folks call The Rockies.
My name is Lowell Alexandersdottir-Chance, but those who come seeking my help just call me the Medicine Man.
The new job was going alright. Until George did something really stupid: he fell in love.
If that wasn’t bad enough, an old friend we went to school with turns up dead in his shop.
Viciously beaten to death.
Tamia, my favorite waitress and part time search and rescue hero, drags me out to have a look. My Coyote sense starts howling. I get the feeling the police are investigating a murder they can’t begin to understand.
We sniff around and every trail we follow snakes right back to George’s new girlfriend.
I’m beginning to suspect there might be more to her than just killer looks. And her intentions toward my friend George are not at all honorable.
If I am right about what she is, George’s heart is the least of what she plans to break.
