OTHERWORLD

Book 1 of The Inspector Dalton Files

Investigating cases can be hard, especially when they involve another world.

Earth Ward Inspector Dalton Kingston’s cases have been getting harder since his arrival to this Earth six months ago. They’re taking a physical toll on him. Forming a team is not only a good idea, but it will help him address his next case.

A rash of murders and disappearances in Southern Ohio normally would not be something he investigated. However, when it’s the Tanner Pack, a vicious weregang, making the request for help, that’s another story.

Dealing with the case is one issue, but doing it with a new team is a challenge unto itself. They must navigate a powder keg of various factions and solve the case or risk losing a potential new Earth Ward ally. Dalton finds himself in a familiar role and providing what comes naturally to him—leadership.

Series Note

This is intended as an introduction to Inspector Dalton Kingston and the formation of his team and their first case. There is a focus on exploring the interaction between the human and nonhuman world. The setting is in Waverly, Ohio, and it's a powder keg of factions such as the Ogben Coven (Witch, Warlock, shifters), Tanner Pack (Weregang), Faith Militia (Humans who hunt nonhumans), and the demonic Kaz Lodat. Dalton uses a high-tech approach to deal with fantastical beings. Although not critical, there is information related to Dalton's travels with Evaran and the gang in The Time Cube, Book 11 of The Evaran Chronicles.
