Moonset on Desert Sands
“A suspenseful, emotionally satisfying tale for fans of witches and magic.”
-Kirkus Reviews
With a traumatic year of fending off a serial killer behind her, Arista has settled contentedly into her temporary home with Auntie in Sedona, Arizona. She enjoys her new job selling all things metaphysical and even has her eye on the hot security guard, Dakota, after her recent breakup with Shane.
But a series of new fainting spells has her worried, and when Auntie witnesses one, they decide the answer lies in her home of Boulder Creek. However, returning means not only dealing with her breakup and its heartache but also the possibility of drawing her bloodthirsty Uncle Fergus to her once safe haven in the redwoods. And this time he has recruited an even more dangerous alliance.
Arista’s closest bonds will be strengthened, but the mounting tension of a death in the desert, a stalker on the streets, and the relentless pursuit of Fergus puts her in dangerous territory, and escaping sorrow proves impossible.
What people are saying about Moonset on Desert Sands
“From beginning to end, I was engaged, and between the entertaining characters, the multilayered tensions and gradually building suspense, and the wonderful depictions of magick, spellwork, and rituals, it was an absolute joy to read.”
~ J Flowers
For me, book twos usually come with some trepidation. Will this be a powerful novel all on its own, or will it just be a bridge to book three? Dodd destroys this fear page after page. Each new location, character, or magical aspect serve a purpose here. The bigger picture is slowly, tantalizingly revealed with some majorly jaw-dropping twists… This novel is a beautiful balance of both charming and darkness.
~ Chelsey Tucker, Independent Book Review
“This was so fun to read! I enjoyed the crystal and spellwork and how you went about incorporating that all into the story.”
