Dead Souls

Veronica Sykes thought her trip to Trinidad was bad—turns out, that was just the warm-up act.

Now everything in her life is spinning out of control: her magic, her temper, and her dragon mate, Lachlan, who's suddenly best friends with her cousin Sigmund.

Their plan to stage an intervention takes a back seat when Baron Samedi himself drops by with a favor to ask. Because when Death comes knocking, you don't tell him you're busy.

Soon Veronica's knee-deep in ghouls, zombies, and a missing Vodou Lwa that might be the key to stopping a warlock with a talent for controlling the dead. Add a return to her New Orleans roots, Lachlan's reluctant weregator ex joining the case, and a murder that refuses to stay buried, and she's got a recipe for disaster.

Her lack of control used to be a problem. Now it's a countdown—and unless Veronica figures it out fast, she won't make it out at all.

Perfect for fans of dark urban fantasy full of myth, mayhem, and heart.
