About Sorchia

I’m S.K. Dubois—writer, editor, and unapologetic lover of all things wonderfully weird and magically delicious. I call the Missouri Ozarks my home, where the misty woods and mysterious hills inspire my tales of urban fantasy, paranormal mysteries, and otherworldly mayhem. When I’m not conjuring up stories, I’m helping fellow authors polish their manuscripts, especially if they involve magic, murder, or things that go bump in the night.

When serial philanderer Rex Midland is murdered, the obvious suspect is Harold Pafton, the husband of one of Midland’s lovers, who was at the scene on the day of the murder. Defense attorney Mark Bellows convinces Pat Pirard, Santa Cruz Law Librarian, newly turned private investigator, to help with jury selection. She’s reluctant, partly because Bellows is a little skivvy and her new husband is not fond of him, and partly because she can’t help someone who might be guilty. So […]

Having said that, The Book of Autumn follows Marcella Gibbons as she returns to her alma mater, a magical academy in New Mexico.

Ok—I live in a house in the woods. I built it—or at least I told the builders how to build it (whether they liked it or not) and I’ve lived in it for over 20 years. I can absolutely guarantee that this house is alive. It’s tried to kill me a couple of times—all in good fun—and it’s even more frequently saved my life. We have a complicated relationship. Haunted by a curse that kills someone close to their family […]
