The Devil's Greenhouse — Melissa Davis

Detective Mara Lawson has seen her share of brutal crimes, but nothing could prepare her for the gruesome murder that would change everything. A lifeless body, carved with strange occult symbols, lies at the center of a mystery that defies logic and reason. As Mara digs deeper, she uncovers a trail of ancient rituals, demonic forces, and a secretive cult known as The Devil's Greenhouse-one that seeks to unleash unspeakable horrors upon the world. With the help of Hunter Eldritch, a reclusive demonologist, and a priest whose faith has been shaken to its core, Mara must confront her greatest fears. Together, they unravel a conspiracy that reaches back centuries, buried in the shadows of history. As the lines between reality and the supernatural blur, Mara races against time to stop a ritual that could bring about the end of days. But in a world where faith is tested and evil knows no bounds, the cost of failure is unimaginable. With the city-and perhaps the world-on the brink of apocalypse, Mara must decide how far she is willing to go to stop the darkness from consuming everything she holds dear. The Devil's Greenhouse is a gripping tale of suspense, where ancient horrors collide with modern-day heroism, and the fight for humanity's soul begins.
