Synopsis

A statistics professor tries to survive a series of gruesome and impossibly unlikely disasters linked to a supernaturally lucky Vegas casino, while dealing with her own erasure as a bisexual, in this chilling and quick-witted horror novel.
What's happening in Vegas isn't staying there...
Four years ago, an unthinkable disaster occurred—the Low-Probability Event. Eight million killed in a single day, each of them in improbable, bizarre ways: strangled by parade balloon ropes, torn apart by exploding manhole covers, attacked by a chimpanzee wielding a typewriter. A day that proved anything is possible, no matter the odds.
Vera, a former statistics and probability professor, lost everything that day, and she still struggles to make sense of the unbelievable catastrophe. To her, God is dead, and nothing matters anymore.
When Special Agent Layne shows up on Vera's doorstep, investigating a suspiciously—and statistically impossibly—lucky casino, he needs her help to prove the casino's role in the LPE. And offers Vera one last chance to make sense of an unlikely world.

    "There once was a lane, filled with well-tended lawns and well-fostered friendships, of well-appointed houses all neat and tidy and those that live within, of stories and mysteries that manifest for only fleeting moments for the few who pay attention. This is one such tale. A tale about pleasant people, about the lives they live, about their wants and dreams, about their loves and losses, their joys and hates, about their days and nights in the company of cherished companions in the houses they call home. In this tale of the happy little lives of blissful simple folk, there are monsters, to be sure. But this is not the story of monsters, this is not the tale of their evil deeds, this is the tale of those they make suffer. In this tale, the monsters have no names. The monsters do not deserve names." 
    A character driven slice-of-life story that follows the humble lives of the residents of a suburban neighborhood as they live and love, and about the house with the dead yard, a vacant lot, that sits among their homes, inert and immobile, yet intimidating and terrifying to any who look at it too long. The children of the lane are not the only ones who are fearful of the anomaly in their midst. Every adult upon the lane wonders why the structure still stands, with no known owner and no reason to be. The lingering question is not who owns the house, but why no one ever goes in or comes out, and why there are such ghastly noises emanating from within. Day by day, the happy people of the lane go about their tasks and trials, and day by day, the house with the dead yard seems a little more ominous, a little more intrusive, and a little less ignorable than before.

    In Paradise Falls, I'm the law. Since I became the police chief, crime here is about as common as a good hair day in a tornado, and peace between shifters and witches has never been smoother. My familiar, Tizzy the squirrel, keeps me entertained with her acorn-fueled antics, while my bear shifter hubby, Ford, makes me feel like the safest witch on the planet. 
     
     
     
    Like a vegan at a barbecue, trouble rolls into town in the form of a pack of werewolves. These furry interlopers aren't here for the scenic hikes or the artisanal honey—oh no, they want a piece of Paradise Falls, and they're not asking politely. When the Witch-Shifter Coalition votes to boot the wolves, the head howler throws down the gauntlet, declaring the sacred Rite of Arphlitian—a ritual fight to the death as ancient as the town's oldest oak tree. 
     
     
     
    With no choice, the town must choose a champion. And guess who volunteers? As the new mayor, Ford steps up to the challenge. 
     
     
     
    I'm sure someone in town is conspiring with the newcomers to take down the leadership in Paradise Falls. But who? And to what end? 
     
     
     
    Unfortunately, in Paradise Falls, the only thing more magical than the town's charms is this mystery.

    Twenty years ago, I escaped my hometown of Moonfell, a paranormal hotspot in the suburbs of New York, hidden from human eyes. 
    A place I swore I’d never return. 
    But the gruesome murder of a teen werewolf has brought me back. And I’m here to solve it.  
    As I delve deeper into the case, I realize this is no ordinary killing. Someone or something is targeting the supernatural community. 
    Struggling to control my powers, I find myself entangled in the drama of my neighbors—from a group of mysterious witches to the sexy and dangerously seductive Blake as well as a seemingly ordinary feline that turns out to be something entirely unexpected. 
    I must navigate the dangerous waters of Moonfell while keeping my own secrets hidden.  
    See, I’m not your average witch. Hell, I’m not like any witch. My magic is different. It’s wild and unpredictable. And one day, it’s going to get me killed. 
    But as the stakes get higher and the bodies pile up, I realize this is more than just a murder investigation. This is a battle for survival.
