The Hour of Dust and Ashes

The electrifying sequel to the “captivating… fast-paced” (Publishers Weekly) urban fantasies The Better Part of Darkness and The Darkest Edge of Dawn!

Now that Detective Charlie Madigan knows the off-world drug ash makes humans the perfect vessels for possession, she’ll do anything to save her addicted sister Bryn.

Desperate for help, Charlie turns to an ancient race of beings — creatures of mist and smoke — and embarks on a journey into hellish Charbydon with her siren partner Hank and the Revenant Rex to save Bryn and make it back before the creatures exact their deadly price. But one of them isn’t coming home...
