Overview

There's more to good and evil than meets the eye... When human remains are found in her pre-war fixer-upper in an east Vancouver neighbourhood, Claire Dawson's grand plans to fix the house -- and her life -- take a disturbing turn. Suspicious there might exist a relationship between the discovery and her own tragic past, Claire insinuates herself into the investigation, unknowingly placing herself in harm's way and Homicide's Detective Dylan Lewis in an impossible conflict of interest. And when Dylan's grandmother, a Native American medicine woman, wades into the mystery, challenging the demon whose earthly form is behind the murder, the three find themselves embroiled in a high-stakes battle where lines are blurred and worlds collide -- but souls are ultimately freed.

Baby Jane by M. A. Demers is a can't put down, page-turning mystery thriller that will have you up late at night, a little afraid to go to sleep and wishing it were tomorrow so you could pick it up and keep reading. - T. T. Thomas, Goodreads review, 5 STARS</p><br/> Baby Jane ... twists expectations ... A tight marriage of police procedural and supernatural thriller ... [woven] in with a compelling First Nations magic-realistic tapestry ... exploring both the best and worst of human desires. - Scott Gray, Goodreads review, 4 STARS</p><br/> A compulsive page turner ... well-paced, the main characters are well drawn and have a range of issues that make them flawed and human, and the plot has something to separate it from the crowd. I thought it was a great read and would happily recommend it! - Booked Up, 5 STARS</p><br/> Baby Jane was well written, deep, and had an interesting Native aspect ... An excellent twist on an old classic. - Kajsa, Goodreads review, 4 STARS</p><br/> Wow! That was a roller coaster of a ride. Truly, truly blew me away with the thick content of the story and the beautiful way you wrote it. I simply could not stop and devoured it over two days. I loved the ending, but in all honesty I loved everything about the book, from start to finish. - bookaddict1133, Wattpad</p>

Author Information

Michelle A. Demers is a freelance writer, editor, creative consultant and fine art photographer based near Vancouver, British Columbia. Prior to publishing her first novel, Baby Jane, Demers wrote almost exclusively for the film industry, including the ghostwriting of production notes for over 30 major motion pictures. She is a screenwriter with, to date, six spec and four commissioned scripts, one optioned documentary project, and was the unaccredited story editor on the award-winning MOW A Cooler Climate, starring Sally Field and Judy Davis. Demers has many published editorials and articles in print or online, and is a featured essayist in Writing About Literature: A Guide for the Student Critic. She also blogs regularly on a variety of cultural issues at www.mademers.com/bad_egg. On the photography side, Demers began her career in the late 1980s in Edmonton where she exhibited in several solo and group shows including at the Fringe Festival, The Works art festival, and with Celebration of Women in the Arts; she also took on small commercial assignments and acted as a creative consultant on other artists' projects. In 1992 she moved to London, England, where out of necessity she abandoned her photography career though she remained attached to the industry. In 1995 she returned to Canada and in 2007 turned her attention again to fine art photography but without forsaking her writing. You can see her fine art at www.mademers.com/fine_art_photography.html.
