(The author of this novel is in a production agreement with the Keller Entertainment Group as a horror TV series). When mutilated bodies start popping up in a small New Mexico town, a hard-ass local sheriff and a beautiful paranormal investigator battle the legendary demon called La Llorona. She is a witch, a siren, and a shift-changing demon that has emerged from the dank centuries to appear in the little town of La Luna, New Mexico. Based on the tragic Hispanic legend of a scorned woman who drowned her own children in a fit of madness, La Llorona carries us into a bone-chilling and scary journey into the supernatural world. Armed with her shiny scythe, she is condemned to haunt the earth and waters for eternity. She will drag men, women, and children to her watery grave. Rachel Woods is ready for this reckoning. She is a paranormal investigator and she is armed with a Ph.D. and a 9mm pistol with an 18-round clip. Rachel tracks the demon to her hometown of La Luna. And so, the hunter becomes the hunted. Sheriff Matt Young and his Deputy Paul Lopez are discovering dead people in their little town but they are reluctant to believe the demon is responsible for the blood bath. There is a violent killer - La Llorona - her handsome, brave adversary, Matt - his love interest/damsel-in-distress, Rachel - and their humorous sidekick Paul. The good guys fight the bad villain but who will win the war in this true and classic formula of horror? This tale, based on the award-winning screenplay, is filled with the enduring power of friendship, the resilient strength of human endurance, and the beauty of an unshakable resolve in the universal struggle between good and evil. More importantly, Rachel becomes female empowerment from her sophisticated pantsuit demure into an extraordinary female superhero. But how do you kill something that is already dead? " La Llorona holds her own against classic horror villains like Freddie and Jason."
