Description

Three years have passed since Quinn turned her back on Providence, Rhode Island's seedy supernatural underbelly, walking out on Mr B. and taking a bus headed anywhere. She hoped her escape would give her some peace from the endless parade of horrors. But a dead girl who quarrels with the moon can't catch a break, and, on the streets of Manhattan, Quinn finds herself caught between a rock and a hard place. Again. What do you do when you're stuck in the middle of a three-million-year-old grudge match between the ghouls and the djinn.

Reviews

Praise for the series "A pedal-to-the-metal, balls-to-the-wall female antihero who doesn't give a damn if you like her or not...which totally made me love her."-Amber Benson, author of the Calliope Reaper-Jones series "Entirely original."-Publishers Weekly "A memorably exhilarating and engaging experience. Sly, sardonically nasty and amusingly clever."-Kirkus Reviews "A heroine as fascinating and compelling as she is foul-mouthed and impatient."-Library Journal "Quinn is the sort of fly-by-the-seat-of-her-pants, ask-questions-later, non-detective detective that busts the genre wide-open."-All Things Urban Fantasy
