In Fontenot, Louisiana, where the cypress keep their own counsel and the graves remember, Solene Boudreaux comes home. Soft-spoken but razor-bright, the eighteen-year-old can hear and answer the dead, a gift that cost her father his life and drove her mother north to Chicago in the vain hope of quiet. Now Solene returns to begin college, to help in her family's funeral home, and to learn the boundaries of a power that refuses to be sedated. The dead greet her like kin. One of them, an ancestral spirit with unfinished business, fastens to her shadow. Beauragard "Beau" Andrews is Fontenot's golden myth: twenty, blue-eyed, the town's favored son with a smile that opens doors and a legacy that opens vaults. He is also the Chosen, host and reincarnation of a forgotten European god whose seven hungers are beauty, fertility, magic, wealth, prosperity, war, and madness. The god wears Beau like a well-cut suit, whispering strategies, sharpening his charm, and marking Solene as the vessel required to continue its line. As campus lights dim and the bayou fog rises, Solene's days knot into a private war: the ancestor tugging her toward reckoning, the town's courtesies masking old cruelties, and Beau's courtship, tender one breath, terrifying the next, conducted under the god's gaze. Desire becomes a trapdoor. Visions thicken in the air. Family histories surface like bones in rain-soft earth. To survive, Solene must master the dead who claim her, confront the living who would use her, and choose whether to break a dynasty older than Fontenot itself or be bound to it, body and soul.

This story begins when an ancient evil returns, the world stands on the edge of chaos. Malacoda-a fearsome conqueror resurrected by the dark emperor Erebus-issues a terrifying ultimatum: surrender or be destroyed. With only two weeks before the Earth falls under Malacoda's rule, fear spreads like wildfire, governments panic, and hope begins to fade. But five heroes, each from different corners of the globe, rise in response. Strangers at first, they are united by a common purpose: stop Malacoda before it's too late. One is driven by redemption, another by justice, and all are armed with unique powers-strength, strategy, mysticism, and courage. As Malacoda's forces unleash havoc and his presence shakes cities to their foundations, the five prepare. They train, they clash with their fears, and they bond-not just as warriors, but as something more. Then, the showdown begins. Across land, sea, and sky, the heroes battle Malacoda in a war that pushes them beyond their limits. He is ruthless, powered by immortality and the promise of domination. But what he doesn't expect is their unity. With heart, grit, and sacrifice, the five manage the impossible-defeating a godlike enemy and shattering Erebus's plan for Earth. Malacoda falls. Erebus watches from afar, furious and frustrated. And the five? They don't just save the world. They become its legends.
