Murder is Ugly


When Jinx Delaney accepted an invitation from her friend, Brynn Brookefield, to spend the summer with her and her family, she expected a relaxed, fun, horse-filled getaway. However, upon her arrival at the Brookefield’s exclusive community, she begins to suspect that not everything is as perfect as the members of the wealthy, picturesque neighborhood would like her to believe.

Jinx finds herself embroiled in a web of suspense and deceit as a series of grisly crimes sweeps through the community, revealing dark secrets and tearing apart the residents’ seemingly perfect lives. As neighbor turns against neighbor, Jinx begins to realize that when it comes to high society, murder really is ugly.

Set against a backdrop of a historic, Old South community and a high class horse barn, McNaughton weaves a riveting tale of murder and suspense, filled to the brim with twists and turns that will keep you guessing until the end, while skillfully painting the ironic tale of a community whose beauty lies only skin deep.

Celestina Silvenfare: The Legend Begins
 


Celestina Silvenfare is an elemental sorceress and the prophesied savior of her world, but not until her 14th birthday does she truly understand the danger she must face in order to fulfill her destiny and save the lives of those she loves.

Accompanied by her shape-shifting faerie hound, Nyx, her adopted brother, Hru, a dwarf who can morph into a giant, and her steadfast Elfaemyn warrior protector, Prince Hazen, Celestina embarks on a journey to discover what it takes for one young girl to rise above her own dreams, desires, flaws, and personal tragedies, to restore balance to the land and save all the races of Meréllier.

When circumstances, cleverly manipulated by evil forces, push Celestina too far, will she be able to face her destiny and fulfill the prophecy, or will she unwittingly bring about the ruin of her entire world?

From the Author:

My childhood was wonderfully impacted by numerous epic fantasy books, such as C.S. Lewis’s The Chronicles of Narnia, Terry Brooks’ Shannara series, Anne McCaffrey’s Dragonriders of Pern series, and of course, J.R.R. Tolkien’s tales of Middle-earth, to name a few. Stories of hobbits, dragons, elves, and the ever-worsening villains who plagued them enchanted my imagination, delivering hours of entertainment and countless daydreams. This is the type of experience I hope to deliver to a new generation of young fantasy readers with my Silvenfare series.
