„Sinister, seductive, and pulse-pounding, The Stone Circle is a fae noir mystery where murder is only the beginning.“

The Stone Circle

London investigator Ash Morgan is known for her razor-sharp instincts, unorthodox methods, and an intensity that unsettles even the most hardened criminals. But beneath her composed façade, she hides a secret—she is only half-human. Her fairy heritage is a wild, untamed force she refuses to acknowledge.

When a wealthy Irish landowner hires her to solve his wife’s ritualistic murder, Ash is thrust into a world of ancient magic, whispered superstitions, and dark desires. The victim, Maeve Kavanagh, was found dead in a stone circle, her body arranged in an eerie tableau that speaks of old fairy rites. As Ash delves deeper, she uncovers Maeve’s hidden ties to an underground BDSM network and a shadowy cabal willing to kill to protect their secrets.

The deeper Ash digs, the more the case unearths something primal within her—an intoxicating pull toward the enigmatic Declan Kavanagh, the grieving widower who may be far more dangerous than he appears. As the lines between predator and prey blur, Ash must confront not only the darkness surrounding Maeve’s death but also the one buried deep within herself.

Time is running out. A ritual is unfolding, a gateway is opening, and Ash may be the final sacrifice.

About me

My name is Brigid J. Kane. A pseudonym I thought suitable for writing fae noir mysteries.

In real life I am an editor, proofreader, translator, and producer of e-learning content. For over 30 years my focus is on texts and content about engineering and production technology as well as on renewables.

Writing crime called for a crime name. I have found that it is sometimes better to slip into a role in order to give free rein to one’s imagination.
