“I think it might be linked to the misfires,” I said truthfully, and he looked askance at me.

“Yeah, but you were nowhere near any of the other ones. It wasn’t you, Rache.”

Praise for KIM HARRISON’s
previous Rachel Morgan novels
DEAD WITCH WALKING and
THE GOOD, THE BAD, AND THE UNDEAD

“A fun-fair ride through a fascinating version of our world.”

Charlaine Harris, bestselling author of Dead to the World

“I was absolutely floored…. Fascinating concept, great setup, believable setting, gripping characters, and a fast-paced plot that doesn’t let up for a single page…. For those who like urban fantasy, for fans of Hamilton, Butcher, Charlaine Harris’s Sookie Stackhouse novels, and for those who like a good blend of magic and action.”

SF Site

“A wonderfully fun romp through the supernatural world, a spellbinding blend of sharp wit and vivid imagination.”

Kelley Armstrong

“Filled with magical mayhem…. A protagonist that blends the best qualities of Anita Blake and Stephanie Plum.”

Jim Butcher, author of Death Masks

“For a good scare…enter [these] pages.”
