Carregan Cordwainer and Corwyn Tinker are from a long line of healers and their magic gives their work an extra oomph. Sometimes dangerously so. Vampires have kidnapped Corwyn and it is up to Carregan to rescue her brother. The determined shoemaker sets off to face evil. Alone.

Or so it begins. Along the way she meets an old friend, a fruit bat shape shifter who has taken up mercenary work as she searches for her family, torn from her by vampires years ago. Together they brave the Ghost Woods, a haunted forest born in a long ago battle, and travel the Blood Paths. Confronted by memories both false and true they battle despair.

Will they make it through the Ghost Woods to the vampires' lair or will they falter on their path?

Healing Shoes in the Ghost Woods is the first in its series and it features: truly creative uses of shoes (and just wait until you hear about the laces), usefully benevolent deities, friendship tested by time, a lot of (sometimes powerful) specters, malevolent vampires, shape shifters and other not-exactly-humans, loving families, a spoon with a wicked sense of aim, and a haunted castle.
