Can you tell us a bit about The Last Grave in your own words?
The Last Grave is about Samantha beginning to understand that there’s a lot more going on in her world than she ever guessed, that wherever she runs magic is going to find her and she’s going to be forced to confront her past. I set the book in the San Francisco Bay Area, where I grew up. I was thrilled to be able to use some places that I went to a lot as a kid as background for some pivotal scenes.
The synopsis states that Samantha Ryan is a homicide detective by choice and a witch hunter by necessity. Why is she forced into being a witch hunter?
In the first book a dark coven in Salem began sacrificing young women. Her police captain knew that she had been raised as a witch in a dark coven before escaping that life and ultimately forced her to go in undercover since no one else could. She hadn’t used magic in years before those events, but now the floodgates are open and magic seems to be finding her regardless of what she wants.
How many books do you have planned for Witch Hunt series?
Currently I have 3 books planned for the series. Circle of Blood is going to be the title of the third one.
