The town of Magellan is rich with history and folklore for
those who believe in that sort of thing. The believers
understand there is more out there than just mere humans;
Stormwalkers, Firewalkers, shape shifters, witches, demons
and gods are part of the real world. And their little town
is in the midst of a dangerous vortex that they fight to
protect and keep evil creatures from entering earth. The
unbelievers find any excuse to explain how a lightning
strike can literally blow up a building or a person is not
possessed by a god. So when a local resident and believer
hires Janet Begay, a Stormwalker, to investigate a missing
persons case, the local Chief of Police (a total
unbeliever) takes offense and would rather arrest Janet for
crimes she didn't commit than listen to her side of the
story.
Janet is a Stormwalker with the ability to draw on energy
from a storm and use its power like a weapon against demons
and other beings escaping the vortex. Not long ago, she was
unable to control her power, which led to innocent
accidents getting her in trouble with the law and
unbelievers. She now has more control, but after she uses
the storm, she gets raging headaches and violently sick
unless someone siphons off the energy. Unfortunately, the
only man who can help her is no longer in her life; she
left Mick over five years ago to go her own way. As an
Investigator, she has an uncanny way of finding the lost.
Now Janet has been asked to help locate a missing woman in
the one place that is most dangerous for her. The moment
she lands herself in trouble, Mick shows up in force.
STORMWALKER is an exciting start to a series with an
electrifying blend of paranormal and real world. Secrets
and betrayal are only the beginning. A fun read!
Half-Navajo Janet Begay comes to Magellan to investigate
the mysterious disappearance of the police chief's
daughter. But the people of Magellan sense that Janet is
not what she seems, and they're right.
Janet possesses extraordinary power which is tied to the
storms that waft across the desert. The only person who can
control her when she's caught in the storm's evocative
power is Mick, a dark-haired, blue-eyed biker Janet can't
seem to touch with her powers. He can weild fire and not
get burned, and Janet's never sure where he goes when
they're not together.
Together they investigate mysterious disappearances, which
Janet fears are tied to her mother's people, the mythical
gods from below the earth. They are helped along the way by
Coyote and Crow, but these shapeshifting gods have their
own agendas.
