Asa is an unwilling sensitive with a fear of mirrors and anything reflective. Amy is an unwitting empath. Together they are responsible for murder. THE SHIPPY SIBLINGS are rarely alone, despite living as secluded orphans on the remains of their family's generational farm. Tucked between the scrub-spattered brown hills of Salinas Valley, the decayed farmhouse is home to more than just the Shippy's family secrets. Ghosts vie for a foothold in this world, focusing most of their attention on poor Asa, whose lifelong Shadowman attachment has made it impossible for him to live normally. Amy, on the other hand, doesn't seem as heartily affected. Her constant struggle to erase the memory of their abusive, dead mother preoccupies most of her personality. But when a serial killer appears to be targeting them specifically, the siblings are forced to confront a haunting so personal, so vengeful, that it can only be family.

THE YEAR is 1877. When Talia Rose steps into a fairy ring as a child, her mother, Tate Rose, an outcast witch, signs a deal with a dark fae to delay Talia's inevitable surrender until her eighteenth birthday. A deal that will allow Talia to be taken into a 100-year sleep spell and imprisonment in the fairy realm. But as the eighteenth year draws closer, more and more settlements and wagon trains begin mysteriously disappearing, leaving Tate to wonder if her daughter's impending abduction is only one in dozens that could be linked to the wild Desert Folk. But why? Set against the bloody and brutal background of the American West, this gritty, pulp western retelling of the multi-cultural fairytale best known as "Sleeping Beauty" or "Briar Rose," is as twisted and dark as the origins deserve.
