About The BOOKS

Xander Chase and the Unicorn Code

Lilly Honey Star is a 15-year-old like no other; she is the sole survivor of a mass murder and is suspected of being the half-mad murderess. Detective Stacy has her doubts about Lilly’s guilt, and when a stranger starts asking bizarre questions, she—along with Lilly—is pulled into the core of the case, which is bigger and more dangerous than they could have ever imagined.

Xander Chase, the angel of death and judiciary of spirits, is on the case. Desperate to make his father, Death himself, proud, Xander must unravel the perilous lies and deceit that’s spread through the realms of sinister creatures, before the murderer’s eye turns on him.

Xander Chase and the Lost Wing

Tormented and expelled from the spirit realm by his own father, Xander has lost one of his glorious obsidian wings. This good-hearted angel of death has lost his self-esteem, his vigour and his purpose in life too.

Living an ordinary life in Herefordshire, Detective Stacy Andrews embarks on a mission to find Xander’s lost wing and explores her own hidden leprechaun power along the way. Despite Xander’s angelic identity, the innocent Stacy falls head over heels for handsome Xander and is startled to realise she wants this angel in her human realm forever. Unable to resist Stacy’s gorgeousness, Xander confesses to himself that he wants her too – but he can’t shrug off the feeling that he doesn’t belong to the human realm. The damaged, broken, useless one-winged angel wants his lost wing back and will pay any cost to be able to fly back to his realm!

Blaze, a dead, lost, heart-broken doublicorn spirit has some unfinished business with magic-wielding cannibal witch, Alysbeth, and Xander’s cruel father. What is her connection with Xander’s wing?

What’s the final destination of the lost wing? War or trade – what’s Xander’s choice? This magical tale of angels, spirits and witches is a page-turner with endless mystery!
