'Immersive, involving, suspenseful, and intriguing, with a main
character you'll love' LEE CHILD No.1 New York Times and USA TODAY
bestselling author Charlaine Harris returns to her alternate
history of the United States where magic is an acknowledged but
despised power in this fourth installment of the Gunnie Rose
series. Felicia, Lizbeth Rose's younger half-sister and student at
the Grigori school within the capital of the New Holy Russian
Empire in San Diego, is caught between secrets and powerful family
struggles. As a distant relative to the Tsar, she provides an
essential service to him by providing blood transfusions for his
hemophilia, and she is thus given rare access and dismissed as if
cattle. At the Grigori school she is seen as a charity case, a poor
orphan with no prospects and no sign of magical prowess-the latter
which Felicia keeps purposefully hidden. And yet, when a kidnapping
attempt is made upon Felicia her past and her future crash together
in violent ways. Continuing immediately after The Russian Cage,
this fantastical fourth book takes a side step, exploring the Holy
Russian Empire while also showcasing the dynamic depths of magic
within Harris's alternate North America in curious mysteries.
Felicia, it turns out, is far more than the Russian-Mexican waif
Lizbeth rescued, and the journey of discovery she is on is filled
with magical assassins and desperation, but above it all is her
courage to never give in to the limitations imposed upon her. Love
The Walking Dead, Westworld or True Blood? You will ADORE this
gritty and wildly entertaining tale, set in a parallel reality of
the United States where magic is an outlawed power. __________
