Moriah Hanlon is a new, biracial girl in Pachuck, Oklahoma trying to come to terms with her twin sister's death while also adjusting to her mom's psychotic episodes. 

When a foreign exchange student goes missing, Moriah discovers unsettling things about Pachuck's dark past. Things like kidnappings, sacrifices, and a weird obsession with hogs. After a secret club leaves letters addressed to her, claiming to "watch her", she fears she'll meet the same fate as the missing foreign exchange student. Now, Moriah has 24 hours to figure out who's behind the kidnappings, or she might be next.

Inspired by a writing prompt from The Open Novella Contest, Like Lambs Led gives us a glimpse into an Oklahoma town that's willing to kill for their secrets...

||9x Featured|| For the Slates, Demon Slaying is the family business. And eighteen-year-old Perrin has fully embraced her chosen profession. But when her younger sister, fifteen-year-old Ace, unwittingly picks a doozy of a case as her first outing, they discover their connection to a demonic bet one thousand years in the making. Along with their exasperated father and an overeager, yet extremely cute grocery store clerk, Perrin and Ace will need to trust each other and their training in order to avoid setting off a chain of events that some might deem apocalyptic. Will Perrin lose herself trying to keep her family safe? Will Ace make a deal with the devil that ruins both their lives? Only time will tell.
