Spearfinger. Carl Spaberg, Ace Reporter, #1

EXTRA! EXTRA!READ ALL ABOUT IT! People-children-in Cherokee, North Carolina, are dying. Murdered. The police say things are under control, but the death toll is climbing. Enter Carl Spaberg, ace reporter: legend in his own mind. Carl doesn't know why his bosses have sent him to Cherokee, nor does he care. Recently blackballed down to tabloid status, Carl only wants one thing: to break a story so big and juicy it'll catapult him back into the big leagues-and he's not going to let a little thing like the truth stand in his way. But when the case involves an obnoxious investigator, the world's oldest car thief, and a thousand-year-old ogress, isn't it possible the truth may actually be stranger than fiction? Beware the thunder!
