Macaria can speak to the dead, a gift that makes her an invaluable asset to the Grimsile Detective Unit. But there’s one case she can’t crack: her own. She died… so why is she still here?
By day, she's just another student trying to juggle schoolwork and friendships. But behind the scenes, she's knee-deep in grisly homicides, chilling kidnappings, and restless spirits demanding justice. As the cases pile up, so do the questions about her own twisted fate.
Torn between two worlds and running out of time, Macaria must solve more than just crimes, she must uncover the truth behind her unnatural life. Because staying alive might be the most dangerous case of all.

The Lace Forest Mail club is something I started to connect with my audience, to show more in-depth my process and most of all, to keep on improving my skills. The theme for this mail club is dark fantasy, sometimes there will be some horror but it’s mostly subtle dark fantasy.
Every month, I create an illustration based off of a prompt that you vote on. You’ll have access to the entirety of the process, give feedback and even vote on the pose and colour scheme. After the illustration is finished, the lineart is used to be turned into a colouring page.

In an 1800s world where supernatural beings are often feared, one city sees vampires, werewolves, and witches as divine gifts. The Grimsile Magic Detective Unit, a team with unique abilities, is tasked with solving a string of murders while balancing everyday life. But when a rival group interferes, their mission becomes even more chaotic.
Vee was ready to start a new chapter in her life with her upcoming wedding—until a relentless swarm of monsters came after her. Marked as the black sheep of her village for reasons even she struggles to understand, she has no choice but to flee. But no matter where she runs, the creatures are always right behind her. With her past haunting her and danger at every turn, can Vee ever reclaim a sense of normalcy, or is she destined to be hunted forever?
