Summary
Artemis Himmelreich only ever wanted to be a normal girl, she didn’t ask for any freaky superpowers or special abilities; but as she seems to be Fate’s favorite whipping girl, she lucked out in that department.

As the 59th Watchman it’s up to Artemis and her Familiar Elliot to go on a world hopping adventure fighting monsters, evil Witches and of course stopping the forces of evil in its tracks before everything we know and love about our world becomes but a faded memory!! So join Artemis and Elliot as they go toe to toe with whatever goes bump in the night.

Summary
When a local millionaire in a small Olympic Peninsula town dies under mysterious circumstances, an eccentric genius detective and her unflappable half-werewolf partner are called in to investigate. Was the victim really done in by an irate forest spirit with a grudge against his family, or is the true threat something a bit more corporeal? My tribute to/blatant ripoff of "The Hound of the Baskervilles." Not as silly as the title makes it sound, but there should be some levity here and there.
