Dr. Andy Rose

At her twin brother's funeral, Lily touches his casket, whispering a Scottish blood oath: "If your killers were from the Diabhal, then they should know that I'll be a Deamhan and will pursue them until your soul is avenged."

A WRITER'S DIGEST CONTEST judge:

"Loved this line: 'Can the teachers write a lesson plan to overcome a killer?' That one line nails the primary strength of this mystery, which has a most unusual heroine: a middle school teacher...a quick, exciting, plot- twisty tale of revenge and international intrigue."

ForeWord CLARION REVIEW:

"A tight plot, suspenseful action, and an ethnically diverse cast."

Andy portrays teachers as heroes - long overdue!
