This book will be free from 1/15/2022 through 1/31/2022

Once upon a time, the Grimms’ fairy tales taught lessons. Now, the Grimm Reaper does.

New detective Chelsea Sullivan is partnered with a maverick famous for closing cases and infamous for how he does it. He has a target on his back and a chip on his shoulder. Not exactly how she hoped to kick off her first homicide case.

Jim McPherson doesn’t mind showing an up-and-comer the ropes, but he does mind when she keeps putting herself in harm’s way. Especially since her innocence is exactly the trait the serial seems to be targeting. Unless they’re missing a crucial detail. And he can’t help but think his new partner knows what it is.

He has no idea she fears her father might be the murderer.

The body count is rising and the Grimm Reaper is after Chelsea. If they can’t catch him before he catches her, there will be no happily ever after.

Once Upon A Crime is the first book in Nolon King’s new Once Upon A Crime Trilogy. Start reading your favorite new series today!

She doesn’t remember being dead. She’s just confused.

And instead of her burial clothes, she’s wearing a Dallas Cowboys warmup suit.
