Sylvie Lightner specializes in cases involving the unusual, where magic is real, hell is around the corner and death can be a relief. When Sylvie finds the bodies of five women in the Everglades, she tries to pass the buck to the police. When the bodies wake up, shift shape and start killing, she finds herself in the middle of a lethal investigation. The government [ISI] is not her friend

With the aid of a necromancer, she learns that a sorcerer is combining alchemy, shape shifting and death magic and piling up corpses along the coast. But how do you stop him when he is playing with awakening gods?

Sylvie battles for nothing less than the fate of the world with fascinating characters, magic and mythology not to mention action. Engrossing magic and creative mayhem hold the reader in place, and I can't wait to see who Sylvie grows into. Like urban fantasy? Hold a place till you can get to the bookstore. You'll love this. ~~ Pam Allan
