FIRST ASSIGNMENT - An Occult Suspense Thriller
She was meant to follow orders. But when the land calls her name, obedience becomes a death sentence.

Morgan Monroe doesn’t belong—not to GUARDIAN, the covert magical agency that sidelines her, and not to the bloodline that made her both powerful and expendable. Assigned to cover dry wells and small-town city council stories, Morgan expects another dead-end case ... until a withered horse carcass, a farmer’s desiccated body, and an unnatural hum beneath the West Texas soil hint at something older, and far more dangerous, waking beneath her boots.
The leylines are splintering. Ghosts are appearing where they shouldn't. Ancient spirits are rising. And the land remembers
her.

When Morgan’s investigative magic accidentally fractures a sealed spiritual tomb, she partners with a reclusive leyline witch. Together, they uncover a conspiracy buried by Morgan’s own ancestors, one that could unravel the very fabric of magic. As the earth’s fury builds, Morgan must choose: obey the agency that ignores her ... or answer a call older than GUARDIAN, older than her bloodline, and far more terrifying.

If she fails, it won’t just cost her freedom—it will cost the
WORLD.

Fans of Licensed to Curse and The Raven Cycle will be spellbound by this slow-burn paranormal fantasy filled with witches and magic, secret rituals, mystery romance, and a heroine who refuses to break.

First Assignment is the gripping prequel to The GUARDIAN Files, the upcoming occult suspense series from Best Selling Amazon Author Elizabeth Whitmore. If you loved Echoes of the Crescent City, don’t miss what comes before Book One, Unproven—where it all begins.
