Erika Walker is a young woman with a bit of an odd family. Her little brother can coax minutes to stretch or snap like rubber bands and Erika has yet to come across something she cannot break. Erika has never seen her father before and her mother… Well, her mother isn’t exactly her mother anymore. The woman looks like Leah, sounds like her, but acts differently. She isn’t quite sure how and she isn’t quite sure why, but she knows her mother got body-snatched by something. Follow Erika as she delves into a layer of Chicago that she never knew existed, one filled with strange creatures, curious allies, dangerous foes, and maybe—just maybe—some answers to the mysteries surrounding her family. Burned Cover is an urban-fantasy mystery set in a supernatural mirror of contemporary Chicago. The kind of setting where spooky conspiracies run the cities, monsters lurk in the streets, and regular folk are somehow carrying on in ignorance despite the proliferation of phones and cameras. Cover art drawn by Oxanaresh. Also available to read on my website.
