Publisher Description
Finding an exorcist in the modern age is no easy feat.
Evelyn Peters is eager to discover everything waiting for her in life, until a near-death experience leaves her feeling uneasy. As the days wear on, so does her patience, leading to unexplained bouts of violence. Strange dreams bring ominous premonitions of a winged demon feasting on her soul.
What’s a girl to do about a possession when exorcisms have been discontinued in all but the most hidden of churches? Desperate for relief, Evelyn fills up the car, hits the highway, and takes a terrifying road trip with a demonic passenger.
EVOLVED PUBLISHING PRESENTS a dark, thrilling tale in the first book of the “Backseat Demons” series of horror/dark urban fantasy novels, from the author who brought you the multiple-award-winning “Lorestalker” series.

Customer Reviews
Loveable characters on a trip to find out who they really are.
I loved the LoreStalker series by this author and this new series is no different. The author successfully blends both comedy and horror in a profound way that makes you love the main characters just as much as Miriam and Macy from LoreStalkers. “Outer Demons” by is an absolute standout. A gripping and thought-provoking read that pulls you in from the very first page and refuses to let go. Barnett masterfully blends psychological depth with a compelling narrative and characters you feel for, creating a story that feels both intensely personal and universally relatable.
What truly sets this book apart is its exploration of the struggles we all face, brought to life through vivid characters and emotionally charged storytelling.
Whether you’re looking for something meaningful, suspenseful, or simply a great read, “Outer Demons” delivers on all fronts. It’s one of those books that stays with you long after you’ve finished it—and one you’ll likely find yourself recommending to others. Can’t wait to see where the story goes in the next book.
Highly recommended.
