Jonathan Crosby studied for years to become a ground-breaking investigative journalist, only to put his career on hold and move back home to the sleepy Willow Mills to care for his sick father. Now stuck in a monotonous cycle of tedious local journalism, Jonathan is called out to interview a tarot card reader for his latest article. But, when the mysterious old woman predicts disaster in his future, a disaster that rings true, Jonathan must uncover whether it was luck, the power of tarot, or whether the old woman is actually behind the horror. 

A fortune carved by fate... or murder by human design?

The Fool Card by BevanAtkinson
1 part Complete
The Fool Card is the first in a series of mysteries linked to the tarot deck. In this first book, Xana Bard has chosen a quiet life--drinking tea, talking to her pets, reading, and conferring with the Pacific Ocean beyond her picture window. She calls the ocean Doctor P., and it's cheaper than her therapist and may be a little more helpful. She's happy enough, until the night Thorne Ardall, shot while chasing his boss's killer, crashes into her house. Using her tarot-trained intuition rather than her better judgment, Xana patches Thorne up and they agree to track down the murderer as a team. She's sure her mother will have a cow. Her friends will have a cow. Her shrink will have a cow. They can start a dairy farm for all she cares.
