Spiteful Spectres: Blue Moon Australia Book 1 Kindle Edition
Hired to solve the murder of a local mechanic, Darius soon discovers the victim is just one in a series of suspicious deaths, but is there really a ghost at the heart of the case?
The cops sure don’t think so, but whoever is behind it doesn’t like Darius poking around and if he’s not careful the so called ‘Casper Killer’ will add him to the list of victims.
Joined by an eager journalist, a loyal beagle, and a band of brothers from the pub, Darius is well and truly in the killer's crosshairs.
Can they uncover the truth before they are added to the Caper Killer's unfinished business? Or will they discover the ghost they are chasing is just the puppet?
One thing is for sure, Australia is in for a surge of paranormal nonsense, and someone is going to have to sort it out.
Get ready for urban fantasy mayhem.

About the authors
Sam is a writer of magically-charged fantasy adventures. His passion for action, magic and intrigue spawned his Arcanoverse; a delightfully deluded universe that blends magic, myth, and the modern world in a melting pot that frequently explodes.
When he isn’t hiding away in his writing cave, his favorite hobbies include cooking, indulging sugary cravings, gaming, and trying to make his children laugh. You can find more of his work at www.samuelcstokes.com.
When Steve Higgs wrote his debut novel, Paranormal Nonsense, he was a captain in the British Army. He would like to pretend that he had one of those careers that must be blacked out and generally denied by the government, and that he has to change his name and move constantly because he is still on the watch list in several countries. In truth, though, he started out as a mechanic - not like Jason Statham in the film by that name, sneaking around as a hitman, but more like one of those sleazy guys who charges a fortune and keeps your car for a week even though the only thing you went in for was a squeaky door hinge.
At school, he was largely disinterested in all subjects except creative writing, for which he won his first prize at the age of ten. However, calling it the first prize he won suggests that there were other prizes, which is not the case. Awards may yet come, but in the meantime, he enjoys writing mystery and thriller novels and claims to have more than a hundred books forming a restless queue in his mind because they are desperate to be written.
Now retired from the military, he lives in southeast England with a duo of lazy sausage dogs. Surrounded by rolling hills, brooding castles, and vineyards, he doubts he'll ever leave, the beer is just too good.

- Reviewed in the United States on December 16, 2024I have been reading Blue Moon books by Steve Higgs since he started them and have happily continued reading the spin offs. Darius Kane is Australia’s only paranormal investigator and this new series is penned by SC Stokes. Darius is a former soldier who served with Tempest and Big Ben. Tempest suggested he also start a paranormal detective agency- he told him- “ it more then pays the bills and keeps the lights on.” So he did- first case are murderous wraiths floating around the Gold Coast and murdering folks- in particular a mechanic that the widow says was not suicide. Darius like Tempest doesn’t believe in ghosts BUT he takes the case to discover who did the deed so the insurance money can go to his family. We are introduced to a sexy cop that thinks Darius might have committed the crime and soon he has more cases which might be entertained. The story flowed - I enjoyed meeting him and his friends and look forward to more stories with them. Also want to thank the author for putting this series in kindle unlimited
