Something of a Calling
Weeks before her retirement, a lonely small-town detective discovers that she is not alone in believing the worst about people-someone or something is exacting terrible vengeance on humanity at a scale she would never have imagined.
Detective Andy Cooper is less than two weeks away from retiring, and she's not looking for any new cases. But while kayaking out on Lake Longdan on her day off, she comes across a grisly, decomposing body.
Her last days with the Longdan Police suddenly become more memorable than she ever wanted, and fate has an additional surprise to throw her way: a budding friendship with a mysterious woman. As Andy proceeds with what she thinks is her final homicide investigation, what she discovers could be the unraveling of the world as she knows it.
Eco-horror meets the detective novel in this suspenseful tale, perfect for fans of T. Kingfisher, Paul Tremblay, Laurel Hightower, and Kealan Patrick Burke.
