Vampire private eye and criminal necromancer return to unravel the mystery of a stolen painting. * When a famous painting vanishes during a gala at the Philadelphia Museum of Art, reformed necromancer turned private eye's assistant, Isla, considers it serendipitous that she happens to be at the soiree. Just don't mention to her vampire boss (and former fling), Greg, she was there on a date with the handsome curator. Hey, if the vamp wants to keep things all business and no play between them, that's his loss. She can be professional about it. Totally. Determined to prove her worth at this whole mystery solving business, Isla convinces her date to hire a certain vampire/necromancer private eye duo to recover the artwork before getting the pesky human authorities involved. Greg, if you're wondering, isn't jealous. He's making damn sure things stay all business between him and Isla moving forward. It's not like he's still craving her intoxicating blood or anything. That would be unprofessional. She can date whoever she wants... after they find this pinched painting. Of course, nailing the thief would go a lot faster if greedy suspects didn't also keep vanishing one by one.

❖ QUEENKILLER, KINGMAKER Book 1 ❖ Feudal Southeast-Asia filled with magic, daemons, and a royal conspiracy. This is Isla's quest for the truth, and her slow spiral into becoming her very own worst nightmare. When the gods ascended thousands of years ago, they left behind the divine gift of theurgy. Its powers still echo amongst men, but run fiercer yet in the blood of kings and queens. And one of them will stop at nothing before Isla is dead. A betrayal lures her out of refuge and into her journey home, where she must unmask her enemies before they unmask her. The theurgy that she has had to keep hidden for many years can be her greatest ally or her most lethal foil. Only her wits can guide her through the dangerous politics of the Surikh court. But amidst the plots and schemes bubbling around her, she uncovers something far more sinister than the identity of her enemies. Something that can change her entire life; indeed, entire kingdoms. ↝ this work contains violence, profanity, and sexual references ↜ ↝ Winner of Wattys 2016 HQ Love Award ↝ Winner of FANTASCI's first season Chosen One awards ↝ Winner of The Cryptic Awards 2018 ↝ Featured in Fantasy as of 18-01-2017 ↝ Wattpad Editor's Pick January 2021
