A Kerilee Oberon Paranormal Cozy Mystery

**A newly diagnosed autistic sleuth.

A traumatized teen with a dangerous gift.
A kidnapper hiding behind the friendliest smile in town.**
Kerilee Oberon has always known she was different—too sensitive to noise, too overwhelmed by crowds, too quick to notice the tiny details everyone else missed. When a doctor finally calls it autism, everything clicks into place. She isn’t broken. She’s wired for truth.

Good thing she’ll need that truth now more than ever.

When Keith Asta—an autistic teen rescued from a secretive corporation—comes to live with her, Kerilee thinks her biggest challenge will be helping him heal.

Then a girl from his past vanishes.
The winter storms over Molenhaven turn unnatural.
Shadowy spies creep through the woods.
A charming newcomer seems to appear everywhere Kerilee goes.
And someone wants Keith back… at any cost.
With her metalworking Spiritsmith friend Trisha, her wary sheriff, a guilt-ridden ex-agent, and Mysty—the world’s most opinionated talking cat who insists she is the real hero—Kerilee learns to trust the instincts she once doubted.

Because in this mystery, the smallest sensory details matter…
and the truth hides where only a differently wired mind can find it.

Perfect for readers who love paranormal cozies, found family, neurodivergent heroes, and mysteries with heart.
