Description
In a small town where people go missing all the time, one might think a private detective would have no trouble finding work.
Except for Max Long. His luck really is that bad -- at least until a blonde bombshell hires him to look into the strange circumstances surrounding her sister's death.
The blonde might be good luck, or more likely, entirely the opposite. Drop-dead gorgeous women aren't exactly common in Shadow Pines, nor do they walk into his office.
Everyone in town knows there's something unusual about the place. The excuse of animal attacks claiming the unwary hiker works only so long before a rational person suspects the irrational. Blood stolen from the hospital, strange howls at night, and a girl with an overly innocent face that spells trouble all lead to one conclusion: Max is in way over his head.
Or is he?
The night after a strange meteorite streaked across the sky, the wind responds to his desires. He soon discovers he can manipulate water, fire, and earth as well.
Shadow Pines is out of balance, and Mother Nature has sent Max to fix it.
Yeah, he's pretty sure they got the wrong guy...
What Readers are saying:
"Mother Nature is a force to be reckoned with. Max is and isn't your stereotypical private eye. Little does he know that the winds of change are about to blow his world apart. On the flip side, the supernatural world is going to find out that it's not good to fool with Mother Nature. I loved the story and I can't wait to read book two. I've never read a book by the authors and not loved it." -- Amazon review
"Another great book! Love how the writing between the J.R. Rain and Matthew S. Cox blend so well together. I've read several J.R. Rain books, and this one did not disappoint at all." -- Amazon review
"The Elementalist is a new twist about paranormal entities. It's not your normal vampire/werewolf read. It's an engaging glimpse into the personality of a small town, the forces that drive the power in that town, and two totally unlikely characters who pair up to solve a series of murders. Written with wry humor, engaging characters, and a concern for the 'regular' folks, the novel makes one wish for the next installment to appear quickly." -- Amazon review
"Unique read. I loved the story. I stumbled upon J.R. Rain's books a few months ago and have not been able to stop reading. Just when I think Rain can't create anything better than the last series I've read, I find a fresh new story. I can't wait to finish this series and move onto the next find." -- Amazon review
"Living in the small town of Shadow Pines does not give a PI like Max Long an abundance of work. Honestly, he rarely gets cases but without him, his landlord would get no rent so he works with Max instead of kicking him out. When a gorgeous bombshell of a woman shows up looking to hire him it seems too good to be true. What would a Founding Family member like Crystal want to hire a guy like him for? Is she for real? Since when do people go to PIs to investigate wrongful deaths? Especially High Society mysterious wrongful deaths? Could Dana and her husband have truly been murdered and the police are covering it up? This series is suitable for adult readers who enjoy modern small town noir-esque PI stories with a paranormal twist and a dash of romance. I can't wait to read book #2, The Black Rose!" -- Amazon review
