She was predisposed to suspect the church of course, but her discussion with a freelance reporter who met up with her about this case showed her how many allegations about satanists causing trouble are often overblown. In the end, Tree discovered the girl's murderer was actually an insane Christian fanatic who was posing as a local anti-Satanist activist to cover-up his crimes.

''Ms. Tree'' was the best-known comic book creation of author Max Allan Collins prior to his graphic novel, ''ComicBook/RoadToPerdition''. Terry Beatty was the series' artist. The character first appeared in ''Eclipse Magazine'' #1 (May, 1981), the debut publication of Eclipse Enterprises. Subsequent appearances in anthology comics were deemed successful enough. Resulting in the ongoing series ''Ms. Tree's Thrilling Detective Adventures'', later shortened to ''Ms. Tree''. While there were a couple of changes in publisher, said series lasted for 50 issues (February, 1983-July, 1989). The character was then revived in ''Ms. Tree Quarterly'' by Creator/DCComics, which run for 10 issues (Summer, 1990- Spring, 1993). The paperback novel ''Deadly Beloved'' followed in 2007. The character hasn't seen recent use in her original medium.
