A Deadly Shade of Green

by P. Willis-Pitts

Replace the atom of magnesium in a molecule of chlorophyll with an atom of iron and you get red blood--this scientific fact inspired the book A Deadly Shade of Green. Peter and Miranda move into an old California Mission. Towering over the Mission is a vast Tree of unknown species that exerts a hypnotic effect on the couple. Events gather momentum when a series of murders occurs and Miranda is the prime suspect. Both Peter and his friend Miya are almost killed and Miranda becomes pregnant, her fetus poisoned. Finally, Peter employs fire, flood, and native cunning to combat this primordial enemy...
