Kristi DeMeester Books in Order

Reporter Cora returns to the world of religious extremism she escaped to investigate an Appalachian snake-handling cult. As she uncovers local secrets, an ancient force begins awakening, turning her assignment and buried memories into threats to far more than herself.

Eighteen horror stories place people before threatening forces lurking beneath ordinary life. Obsession, illness and hidden places expose terrors that demand a choice between surrendering to the darkness or living with the knowledge of what might consume them.

A killer targets young women who refuse to conform, while mother and daughter Caroline and Lila face disturbing experiences fifteen years apart. Their buried fears and emerging voices draw them toward the source of a terror that will not release them.

A persecuted healer’s bargain with a dark power binds three women across centuries. A forbidden affair, a rebellious preacher’s daughter and the original curse intertwine in a story of anger, love and resistance to the expectations that would confine them.
