THE DEVIL'S FOOHOLD by Marilyn Meredith

 


This is another book that started out to be a Deputy Tempe Crabtree mystery, but by the time I was finished, I knew it didn't fit. It was far too much a supernatural Christian story with touches of horror.

To be honest, i really like this book--might even read it again myself. It's one that I had to write.

When you read it you'll see the elements of my Tempe Crabtree series peeking through.

At one time I watched all the horror movies--think Exorcism and Rosemary's baby--plus many of the later ones that had overtones of the devil. I know they all had a great influence on me. 

Blurb: 

Resident Deputy Jessica McGuire’s day starts much the same as usual, but when she jogs by the old family cemetery, she discovers the grave of a baby dug up, and the skeleton is missing. Not much later, Pastor David Tanner reports the theft of a hand-carved redwood cross from his church. Next, a baby goat is reported stolen, and one of the pastor’s cows is discovered mutilated in the field. Jessica and Pastor David team up to investigate these strange occurrences. He is convinced Satan worship is going on in their town. Jessica isn’t sure until she discovers a hooded and robed group meeting in the woods. They flee upon her arrival. She needs to get to the bottom of things before it escalates into something worse. Or has it already?

  This is not an  up=to=date recipe book for camping. it is a collection of the recipes I and my girls cooked on many camping trips. The girls always had the major part of putting the mels together. As a group, we camped in Rose Valley way above Ojai, campgrounds at the beach and other mountains, we camped with many other groups in a school's playground, on the baseball field on the Seabee base, and at a state park. We camped at n unimproved campground in Santa Paula, and many times at Camp Cielo in the Santa Barbar mountains. We did one exciting back packing trip in the Las Padres National Forest.

Once Again I'll Be Offering a Freebook

  Starting June 24 and going through June 28, INTERVENTION,  one of the Deputy Tempe Crabtree mystery series will be free on Kindle. This one is set in a mountain lodge high in the mountains.  The idea came from visiting Camp Nelson in the mountains above Springville where I live. The lodge in my story is called Tapper Lodge and it only has similarities to Camp Nelson because for the story the lodge had to be much large to house all the characters. And yes, because it's Tempe Crabtree mystery, there is some Indian mysticism. Marilyn.
