Father of the Esurient Child

Something demonic crawls within the walls of the Woodson Estate.
A lost orphan and a haunted house.
A child and a detective discover more than they bargained for.

Detective Franklin Monroe is rarely disturbed by criminal details. He is certainly less prone to superstition than his partner, Hugo. When they follow up on a lead from an aging DCS case after an elderly caregiver's death, they don't expect much based on the old woman's mental condition. Her final days were spent raving about demonic activity. But inside her home, every inch of the dilapidated house challenges Franklin's unshakeable faith in the empiric nature of the universe. As they discover room after room filled with bodies, the detectives are compelled to investigate and discover answers for two questions. What happened to Kayla Adams? And what kind of hell was unleashed inside the old Woodson mansion?

This novel takes place in the same universe as the Wolves of the Tesseract series and Vikrum Wiltshire Casefiles.
