Genres: Horror; Supernatural suspense

Synopsis

Grimstone first appeared as the short novel Croft and Wesson in the 2017 box set Eight in the Chamber.

Go West, Prof Croft!

When my magical order assigns me to Grimstone, Colorado on a case, I’m in no hurry to pack my staff and spell books.

The outlaw county is a far cry from my academic calling in New York City. And I’m being paired with junior wizard James Wesson. A hustler, womanizer, and wannabe cowboy, he’s exactly why I prefer working alone.

But something sinister is snatching blondes on the full moon. The local werewolf gang? The six-hundred pound witch who runs the brothel? Or does the perp come from the mortal ranks of a population as strange as any supernatural I’ve encountered?

The only certainty is the lunar cycle, set to wax full in twenty-four hours—meaning we need to get cracking.

Can the wizard duo of Croft and Wesson blow open the case in time to save the next victim?

Or will our odd-couple act spell doom for Grimstone?

Croft & Wesson is a spinoff of the Prof Croft series (set after Book 4) but stands on its own. If you like buddy wizards, occult mysteries, and wild spell-slinging in one of the Wilder Wests around, you’ll love Croft & Wesson!
