Painted Girl, the Spirit Key Book 1

A Native American Woman's journey as she discovers the will of her ancestors with supernatural influences. A world of spirits, a growing love, and nefarious forces collide in this must-read paranormal fiction.


The Old One. The Bad is coming.

And someone will have to pay the price at some point, even if it is with a life. The sacred land must be kept from trespassers, or we'll take the land ourselves and unlock the door to the death realm.

Grandfather. The Old One called me.

Took me off my Kansas horse farm and into the future. My beautiful land had been taken away, bulldozed and turned into a suburb. The land must stay in the family or our heritage will be lost and coated over with asphalt.

Only the Spirit Key can save our way of life.

Young Sara looks like the best candidate, but she's yet to see any ghost since she was a babe and her father's spirit cuddled her as she screamed in fright. She must embrace her Native American roots to keep the land from intruders and that means letting in the ghosts and with it the fears of that night so long ago. Her life is at a crossroads. She's floundering, unable to find a job or her calling. Struggling along without a purpose is the worst thing a person can do.

Death is always near.

My time wanes. The spirits need a new leader, someone to help them cross-over, or they will take matters into their own hands and make war on the living so that the land will be free to hunt without human interference.

But a niggling tells me the Old One has something else in mind. Something I won't like.

The Spirit Key needs a helper.

Someone who respects our heritage and can speak to the dead. I pushed Sara and young RedHorse together, and the relationship could work, but the spirits don't want him. They've seen his future and soon, he will step on the ledge towards death.

I made a bad choice.

A new world full of old spirits, love, suspense, and culture.
