Sinopsis

In near-future New Orleans,ádraugar,áagain-walkers, are faster and stronger than most humans, but not venomous until they are a century old. Until then, they shamble and bite. Since not everyone wants to see their relatives end up that way, Geneviÿve Crowe makes her living beheading the dead.But now, her magicâÇÖs gone sideways, and the only person strong enough to help her is the one man who could tempt her to think about picket fences: Eli Stonecroft, a faery who chose bar-owner in New Orleans over a life in Elphame.When human businessmen start turning up asádraugar, both the queen of the again-walkers and the wealthy son of one of the victims hire Geneviÿve to figure it out. She works to keep her magic in check, the dead from crawling out of their graves, and enough money for a future that might be a lot longer than sheâÇÖd like. Neither her heart nor her life are safe now that sheâÇÖs juggling a faery, murder, and magic.'I loved The Wicked and The Dead! A sassy, ass-kicking heroine, a deliciously mysterious fae hero, and a wonderful mix of action and romance. Add that to MelissaâÇÖs usual great world-building, and IâÇÖm already looking forward to book 2!' - Jeaniene Frost, NYT Bestselling Author
