What is Blood Roots about?
Mound Bayou infamous Sheriff Grant wasn’t too keen on asking three untrained supernatural 16-year-olds to help save their town. Despite their unique abilities, the young heroes didn’t answer his request with a “Yes Sheriff, it’s our duty!”, like one would think. And how could they? The three were busy untangling the tight lipped secrets and lies they had been told all their lives; combined with the pressures of school, dating, friends and covert rivals, kept them pretty busy.
Shouldn’t the Sheriff’s 20+ years of experience fighting supernatural beings make him more than qualified in keeping the town safe? Most would agree with that statement, but this new enemy was different. This new opponent wasn’t just faster or stronger, Sheriff Grant has been tangling with the best of the best since he was a rookie on the police force.
So, while our young heroes and the sheriff were busy battling it out with the Towns Torturer and his crew. Unbeknownst to them a new foe had been hiding in the shadows, studying the sheriff, the townsfolk, and any potential threats that could hinder a hostile takeover. Developing a meticulous and methodical plan to seize the town’s best kept secret,The Bayou.

From The Author,
J. R. Howell
Hey, beautiful people! My name is J. R. Howell and if you made it to my site you must be a real B-Root Lover. I call Blood Roots my first born because I literally have hundreds of stories in my head, but it somehow managed to grow from a thought to the next future New York Times Best Seller. My God said, “Speak things into existence!“. Right now, I’m having fun taking my time writing Blood Roots and hope to have all 25 chapters completed on or before Oct. 2026. Although I want to rush and get chapters out as fast as possible, I find that the less stress I am about writing turns into the best I am at writing. So to all my day ones, stick by ya girl and you won’t be disappointed. By the time we’re done with book one of this trilogy series, you guys are going to believe that there are vampires, witches and other supernatural creatures living in Mound Bayou, Mississippi. So, buckle up and come on this insane journey with me. As we ease our way to the end, you guys are going laugh, cry, question life, and curse me out, lol. But it’s gonna be Epic!
Thanks for stopping by, Love ya! – J. R. Howell
