When fake psychic Samantha Brennan heads to Sedona, Arizona, as the spiritual adviser of the aging bad boy of rock, Rand Riker — she never expects to uncover the most shocking secret the government has kept for the last sixty years: the truth about the being in the spaceship that crashed in Roswell, New Mexico in 1947.

But questions abound in Sedona in the days leading up to an awesome harmonic convergence, which sends Sedona’s mysterious energy off the charts. Such as why Rand defends the most reviled man in the country, militia guru Normal Frankly, accused to trying to kill Arizona’s charismatic senator, Kenny Campbell. Or why Kenny’s real definition of family values doesn’t jibe with what he claims in the photo ops. Even Samantha’s favorite partner in crime, goddess-in-hiding Special Agent Annabelle Haggerty of the FBI wrestles with the most destructive paradox of her life.

With gods and goddesses wielding unimaginable powers, and the shape shifting rock people twisting the very surface of the earth, as Sedona heads into the darkest night the planet has ever seen, Samantha wonders which, if any of them, will survive it. But she should know by now that when Celtic gods are involved, nothing is ever as it appears.

Imagine the surprise of Samantha Brennan, scam psychic and fake ancient deity when she encounters the real thing. That's right -- an honest-to-heavens Celtic goddess, hidden beneath the steely exterior of FBI Special Agent Annabelle Haggerty. And more than goddesses abound in the everyday world, Samantha discovers; there are leprechauns posing as mischievous schoolboys, banshees patrolling parks, and gods working as lounge singers. How had Samantha missed all those super-heroes living right before her eyes on LA's mean streets? Yet their powers might not be enough when the City of the Angels falls prey to a crime spree the likes of which it's never seen. When America's sweet and sexy movie star, Molly Claire, is taken hostage, no one could imagine how she'd be made the centerpiece of a gangland siege, as worlds collide in a struggle to claim the treasures of the ages. But if Agent Annabelle Haggerty and her family of deities are no match for the Demon of Darkness that Annabelle believes is masterminding LA's own Armageddon ? what chance does a poor little fake like Samantha have? HIGH CRIMES ON THE MAGICAL PLANE takes the urban fantasy-mystery trend into brand new territory — beyond vampires and werewolves — to creatures that are both wacky and wonderful. HIGH CRIMES ON THE MAGICAL PLANE is in turns enchanting, suspenseful, funny, sexy and touching. It will appeal to readers in the mystery, fantasy and romance genres, as well as to metaphysical and New Age readers.
