That makes her not only unusual, but incredibly rare as well. She has an intense appetite for sadistic kink when it comes to the demise of her prey, and she definitely doesn't constrain herself to just whips and chains, if you get my meaning. I'm sure you are wondering what makes her my personal problem. Well.that's kind of a long story, so I'll just give you the high points. My name is Rowan Gant, and I'm a consultant for the Greater Saint Louis Major Case Squad. It's a sometimes rocky partnership, but in general the cops find me useful to have around since I can hear the voices of the dead. Talking to ghosts is a bizarre affliction, yes, even for a Witch like me, but I've learned to live with it-sort of. Mind you, I'm not at all happy about this curse of mine, but it's not like I have any say in the matter. I didn't choose it. It chose me. The worst part, though, is that every single time I help the police with a case, the psychic garbage that comes along with it follows me home. And, that brings me back around to the homicidal sociopath in high heels. There is more going on with her than just your average crazy, but I can't quite put my finger on what it is. Not yet, anyway. I'm pretty sure that's why I've got an extra bad feeling about this one-a very extra bad feeling. In fact, I think this mess is going to do more than simply follow me home. I think it is planning to move in.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"US \/ VERY_GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":49798683066641,"sku":"CIN0967822122VG","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"US \/ GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":50096559390993,"sku":"CIN0967822122G","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/0967822122.jpg?v=1751045184"},{"product_id":"crone-s-moon-book-m-r-sellars-9780967822143","title":"Crone's Moon","description":"My name is Rowan Gant, and it has been far too many days since I have heard the voices inside my head. No, I'm not insane-at least I hope I'm not. Actually, what I am is a Witch with a rare talent, even for Witches. I can hear the voices of the dead-murder victims, to be specific. Personally, I consider it less a talent and more a curse, especially given all the grief it brings me. But the cops think otherwise, which is why I find myself consulting for them on a regular basis. In fact, the running joke is that they should just go ahead and give me a badge. I sometimes fear they might make good on that threat. However, like I said, it has been a while since any dead people have so much as given me the time of day. I'll be honest, even though I never really wanted them to talk to me in the first place, now that they have stopped it seems almost like a piece of me is missing-a big piece. As fate would have it, at the same time I've become persona non grata with the dead, it looks as if a serial killer is at work in the St. Louis area. The murders are pretty heinous, too, and that's just the sort of thing that usually turns the rumbling chatter of the victims into a deafening roar and a blinding migraine for yours truly.but not this time, and I have no Earthly-or even unearthly-idea why. What I do know is the Major Case Squad could benefit from my help on this, but I've got nothing to give them. Nothing at all. Unfortunately, it seems that there is now someone else with my rare affliction instead of me. I never thought I'd hear myself say this, but I want my curse back.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"US \/ GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":50369225523473,"sku":"CIN0967822149G","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/0967822149.jpg?v=1751266265"},{"product_id":"law-of-three-book-m-r-sellars-9780967822181","title":"The Law of Three","description":"No good deed goes unpunished, but that hasn't stopped me yet. My name is Rowan Gant. I'm a Witch with an unfortunate gift-I can hear the voices of the dead. Not just any dead, mind you. I hear the spirits of murder victims. Personally, I think of it as a curse. The cops, on the other hand, consider my uncommon talent an invaluable investigative tool, which is why I often work for them as a consultant. Too often, unfortunately, and believe me, it is taking a serious toll. Just over one year ago I was called in to help the Major Case Squad track down Eldon Andrew Porter, a spree killer determined to resurrect the Witch hunts, trials, and executions of the 15th century. He left a string of tortured bodies and screaming souls in his wake, and then he turned his violent attentions to me. Fortunately, I survived our face-to-face encounter, though just barely. After that, Porter disappeared-vanished without a trace-and he stayed that way. Until now, that is. Eldon Porter is not the kind of fanatical sociopath who simply gives up, and to be honest, I never believed he would. I've been expecting this all along. Now he is intent on giving me a one-way ticket to Hell, with an extended preview right here on Earth. But he should make no mistake-if I'm going, I have absolutely no intention of taking the trip alone. If I have to kill him before he kills me, I will. Whatever it takes, I am going to end this.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"- \/ - \/ -","offer_id":50624655130897,"sku":"","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"US \/ GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":50624657260817,"sku":"CIN0967822181G","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/0967822181.jpg?v=1751397388"},{"product_id":"harm-none-book-m-r-sellars-9780967822105","title":"Harm None","description":"THE WITCH AND THE DEAD They say dead men tell no tales. I really wish that were true, because the dead tell me more than I ever wanted to know, and they just never shut up. My name is Rowan Gant. I'm just an average guy... Nobody really...well, except for the fact that I'm a Witch. That last part is the reason I've become the go-to guy for the local cops whenever a murder is a little beyond the pale and they need a consultant with knowledge of the Occult. I didn't actually want the job, but apparently, the job wanted me and it wasn't taking no for an answer. But that's now. This is the story of then. You see, my life used to be pretty calm, but a homicide detective friend of mine is about to ask me to decipher some symbols that were found at a crime scene. The police need answers, and I'm the unlucky bastard who is going to come up with them. Of course, fate being what it is, every answer is just going to beg more questions that drag me deeper into this mess, and there won't be any turning back. Not for me, anyway... My life is about to change forever, and from what I can see-and even feel-it's not going to be good. In fact, it's going to be downright evil...","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"- \/ - \/ -","offer_id":51330172289297,"sku":"","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"US \/ GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":51330175140113,"sku":"CIN0967822106G","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"US \/ VERY_GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":52816766402833,"sku":"CIN0967822106VG","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/0967822106.jpg?v=1751172488"},{"product_id":"in-the-bleak-midwinter-book-m-r-sellars-9780979453380","title":"In The Bleak Midwinter","description":"FOR THE PEOPLE OF HULIS, MISOURI, THE CHRISTMAS HOLIDAYS ARE HEL. On December 22nd, 1975, something unthinkable happened in the small, northern Midwest town of Hulis, Missouri-something so heinous that it turned the holidays into a waking nightmare. Now, 35 years later, it's happening all over again, and for those involved, Christmas will never be the same. In The Bleak Midwinter marks the first full-length novel spin-off from the Rowan Gant Investigations series. Featuring FBI Special Agent Constance Mandalay, a recurring character from the RGI books, In The Bleak Midwinter explores a 35 year old case that has literally come back to haunt a small town in Northern Missouri.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"- \/ - \/ -","offer_id":51698744197393,"sku":"","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"US \/ GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":51698744262929,"sku":"CIN0979453380G","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/0979453380.jpg?v=1751078072"},{"product_id":"all-acts-of-pleasure-book-m-r-sellars-9780967822136","title":"All Acts of Pleasure","description":"How about this for a dark night of the soul: I'm angry, I'm confused, I'm exhausted, I've been betrayed, and the one person who matters to me more than my very life has been taken away-all because I listen. I'm Rowan Gant, and I'm a Witch who has the misfortune of being able to hear the voices of the dead. Not just any Witch can do that, but rest assured I don't consider it a gift. Truth is, I think of it as a curse, and I'm not at all happy about it-especially right now. You see, I've been using my unwanted ability for several years to help the police track down the really bad guys. The worst of the worst. Spree killers, serial killers, you name it. I've purposely dragged myself through the depths of Hell time and time again, all for what I saw as the greater good-stopping deranged killers and saving innocent lives. Now, after all that, the cops I've helped are turning their backs on me. My best friend-former best friend now-just walked my wife out of our house in handcuffs. She is being charged with a homicide he knows damn well she did not commit. I do too, because I know my wife. Besides, I know exactly who the real killer is-Miranda. But, the cops aren't listening. In fact, they won't even talk to me. I've become persona non grata to the law enforcement community that once came to me for help. So I guess I'm going to have to find this Miranda bitch all by myself. Maybe that's a good thing, because I'm not playing on their team, then I'm not playing by their rules anymore either.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"US \/ GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":52095097405713,"sku":"CIN0967822130G","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"US \/ VERY_GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":53025563902225,"sku":"CIN0967822130VG","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/9780967822136.jpg?v=1757002629"},{"product_id":"perfect-trust-book-m-r-sellars-9780967822198","title":"Perfect Trust","description":"Apparently coming toe-to-toe with two different spree killers in less than two years can cause you to suffer from PTSD-or so they tell me. I suppose I can't really argue the point since I actually do have all of the associated symptoms. Unfortunately, I have even more trauma and stress coming my way, courtesy of a serial sexual predator that is prowling Saint Louis, and he has just added homicide to his resume. I know this because a dead college cheerleader told me all about it. I guess that last comment sort of begs an explanation, doesn't it? To make a long story short, my name is Rowan Gant. The spirits of murder victims talk to me-actually, scream at me would be a better description. The police seem to find this curse of mine useful, so they call me in to help out from time-to-time. On the paperwork it says I'm their Occult Practices and Alternative Religions Consultant. That's the fancy title for the brass and the media; not that they're fooled, mind you. Everyone knows that what I really am is the unofficial Witch of the Major Case Squad. But back to those voices... Some are louder than others. Some are more insistent that I help them move on. And others...well, others are downright demanding and won't take no for an answer. They do more than just talk. They crawl inside my skin, and then things get really weird. Like right now with this dead cheerleader, for instance. She takes demanding to a whole new level, and ever since she showed up I haven't been feeling at all like myself. To be honest, I'm not sure I even know who I really am anymore...","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"US \/ WELL_READ \/ SBYB","offer_id":53097784738065,"sku":"CIN096782219XA","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"US \/ VERY_GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":53437907829009,"sku":"CIN096782219XVG","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/9780967822198.jpg?v=1770214988"},{"product_id":"never-burn-a-witch-book-m-r-sellars-9780967822112","title":"Never Burn a Witch","description":"Take one part twisted sociopath and add a double shot of psychosis-fueled misinterpretations of Bible scripture and prophecy, then toss in a copy of a fifteenth-century Witch hunting manual known as the Malleus Maleficarum. Mix well. What do you get? An even more twisted sociopath who now believes he is on a divine mission from God to single-handedly resurrect the Inquisition of medieval Europe-and he is armed with the instructions for doing so. Set him loose on the world and he becomes a serious problem. Set him loose in Saint Louis and he becomes my serious problem. My name is Rowan Gant. The police call me their Occult Practices and Alternative Religions Consultant. That is just their media-friendly spin on what I really am-that being the unofficial Witch of the Major Case Squad. You see, there is a bit more to me than just a cranium filled with arcane knowledge of religious history and the occult. I also have this unwanted affliction-I can hear the voices of the dead. To be specific, I hear murder victims crying out to me from the dark hereafter. The more heinous their deaths, the louder they are. Not all Witches can hear them. I'm just unlucky that way, I guess. At any rate, you can rest assured, given the torture and murder spree this latest psycho is on, the din inside my head right now is damn near unbearable...","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"US \/ GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":53117527425297,"sku":"CIN0967822114G","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"US \/ VERY_GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":53621426389265,"sku":"CIN0967822114VG","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/9780967822112.jpg?v=1770814731"}],"url":"https:\/\/www.worldofbooks.com\/collections\/author-books-by-m-r-sellars.oembed","provider":"World of Books ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
