The open road is the only freedom she’s ever known, the only life she’s ever had. But when the road ends in a backwater town, a mysterious phone call sends her on a new journey.
Lazarus is no stranger to ghosts.
Shades and spirits are his constant companions, it’s the living that set him on edge. The decision to help a troubled mage will find him taking on more than he bargained for.
Becoming a hunter was never part of Zeke’s plan.
He finds himself stepping into all the dark places where horrors lurk and spirits roam free—until a job gone wrong shows him there’s more than one way to deal with a monster.
A missing friend.
A chance to prove himself.
A desire to keep the darkness inside at bay.
Together, the three set out on the long road east, each pulled by a secret.
But a powerful presence lurks in the shadows, eager to make a deal that will change their lives forever.
My Review:
Calling all Supernatural fans! You do not want to miss this fun, unputdownable adventure!
Eden, Lazarus, and Zeke are all such wonderfully rounded, fully developed characters; each drawing you into their differing perspectives so well you think you're right there along for the journey. Eden is a mage who has no memory of any past before 5 years ago and Lazarus and Zeke are monster-hunting cousins and the trio collide when Eden needs the cousins' help tracking down her missing friend. But when on the road with hunters, you know the journey won't be as simple as from point A to point B without a little adventure, erm.. I mean business, along the way.
I love the overall aesthetic of this book, the author captures the vibe and world-building Supernatural fans will love and appreciate while still drawing in readers who might not be as familiar with that show to her truly original story. I loved the scenes where the trio encounter the ghosts and monsters and the way they go about putting them down. You see each character grow so much along the way and I enjoyed watching all of the characters interact so much.
Overall, this book is such a fun, satisfying journey that sets up wonderfully for the upcoming books in the series. Once I started reading I quickly devoured the story, not wanting to put it down. This is one debut author that needs to be on everybody's radar!
