She’s got one good leg. Two bad habits. And enough attitude to burn this whole town down.

Nik Briscoe is an ex-Navy SEAL with a titanium prosthesis, a telekinetic secret she’ll kill to protect, and a gift for pissing off all the wrong people. After getting blamed for a New Orleans drug boss’s dead brother, Nik’s been on the run—living out of her pack, staying one jump ahead of the bounty hunters sent to collect her head.

Her latest stop? Possum Trot, Alabama.

She just wants a burger and five minutes of peace. What she gets is a twitchy junkie with a six-shooter, a murder rap pinned on her by an anonymous tip, and a local police department that can’t decide if she’s the killer or the best lead they’ve got.

Now Nik’s helping the town’s chief of police solve a homicide she didn’t commit. But the real killer might be working for the same cartel boss she’s trying to outrun—and Possum Trot is about to learn you don’t corner a wounded animal without risking your own damn neck.

Fat Cat Stew is the first in a gritty, Southern-fried, paranormal crime series starring one of the toughest heroines you’ll ever meet. Perfect for fans of Lee Child’s Jack Reacher, Laurell K. Hamilton’s Anita Blake, and anyone who likes their antiheroes served with sass, sweat, and a side of revenge.

"If Jack Reacher had a purple-haired sister, it would be Nik Briscoe. I loved this book!" —H.T. Night, author of My Fiance's New Best Friend
