WANTED: Beta readers for a new humorous "metaphysical mystery" fiction series. Even though I've written only the first several thousand words of the first book, I already have potential titles and covers for the series.
The main character is Sky McClellan, a former stand-up comic turned part-time private investigator. He's a good-looking guy with a witty, overactive mind and social anxiety issues. He works for the gorgeous Vanessa Warlock, who runs a New Age Private Investigation firm. Together they take on cases that involve the healing arts, energy workers, and other metaphysical disciplines.
I'm looking for readers to provide feedback on the characters, plot and writing style. I'm having a blast with the early sections, and I want to see if it has the same effect on others :)
When Jane Madarang's neighbor Natalie kills herself and leaves behind cryptic instructions, it's up to Jane and her classmates to unearth deadly secrets.
*****
Natalie Driscoll is dead.
She threw herself out a window and left her neighbor Jane to unravel their town's darkest secrets. Following Natalie's instructions leads Jane to three other high school students who all have something to hide. The four of them must carry out Natalie's final errand while solving the mysteries written in her diary. But the secrets they unearth may be far more dangerous than what they ever imagined.
