Melissa F. Olson Synopsis: Dead Spots is the first Scarlett Bernard novel by Melissa F. Olson. Scarlett Bernard knows about personal space: when anything supernatural steps within ten feet of her, it is instantly nullified – vampires and werewolves turn human, and witches are unable to cast spells. Scarlett uses her status as a neutralizer to cover up crime scenes for Los Angeles’s three most powerful magical communities, helping them keep humanity, and the LAPD, in the dark. One night Scarlett gets caught at the scene of a grisly murder by the all-too-human LAPD cop Jesse Cruz, who blackmails her into a deal: he’ll keep quiet about the supernatural underworld if she helps him solve the case. Their pact doesn’t sit well with Dashiell, the city’s chief vampire, who fears his whole empire is at risk. And when the clues start to point to Scarlett herself, it’ll take more than her unique powers to catch the real killer and clear her name.
