Description

Paranormal Hunter Dani Black wants nothing more than revenge. Until she meets Emilie.

A year ago, the rogue Necromancer Spectre murdered her partner during a hunt gone wrong. She’s been looking for a way to kill him—and keep him dead—ever since.

When rumors of a weapon capable of killing anything surfaces in Dawson, Maryland, she sets out on a mission to get her hands on it. While unraveling a web of clues about her own past, Dani runs into the alluring Emilie Lockgrove, eldest daughter of a magical family inexplicably tied to Spectre.

Emilie Lockgrove survived the catastrophic fire that killed her mother and hospitalized both her and her sister.

Ten years later, she has returned to Dawson, expecting to confront the trauma of her past. Instead, she discovers magic is real, encountering actual ghosts like the necromancer hunting her family for 200 years.

Dani intends to kill Spectre…or die trying. Emilie wants to reclaim her life. To survive, they’ll need to work together to confront their pasts, break the spell capturing Emilie’s magic, and destroy Spectre once and for all.

Paranormal Hunter Dani Black wants nothing more than revenge. Until she meets Emilie.

Stars: 5 out of 5

Is it sapphic and does it slap?
This book. This book is sapphic and curb stomps you to oblivion.

Badass women with blades and guns? Traumatized mediums? Freaking necromancers?
Your majesty, you have been blessing me by the description alone!

Then came the dedication, and I just knew this was a book I would finish in a day. I was completely entranced by the phenomenal writing style and characters. You are introduced to the characters immediately and you love these characters as you watch their characters develop and go through this journey. The romance between Emilie and Dani was just a hint but I appreciated that as it gives us more room to develop it and wasn't rushed or forced.
This is truly one of my favourites and I can tell that this book will be one of booktok's favourite books in the near future.
