Matty has lost his soul, and it’s up to Frankie to find it before his body gives up the fight for survival. But soon his isn’t the only life at risk from the soulless condition. The affliction is spreading from Thunderbolt, Georgia, into the beating heart of the French Quarter and right up to Madam Vionette Fontenot’s front door.

When Frankie returns to New Orleans in search of answers, she finds herself at the mercy of a god who covets her newfound powers as the guardian of the Alcheyvāhā. He makes it clear he’s willing to do whatever it takes to wield her for his own benefit. Even if it costs Frankie everyone she loves.

The Body Shop

In The Body Shop, Hailey Edwards pulls readers into a world where the line between life and death isn’t as clear as it seems. Set in the seemingly ordinary town of Thunderbolt, Georgia, this urban fantasy series introduces a truly unique concept—an auto repair garage that serves an entirely different purpose: helping the recently deceased resolve unfinished business. At the heart of it all is Frankie Talbot, a skilled necromancer whose work brings her face to face with the afterlife’s mysteries and the darker corners of human nature.

Frankie’s business is anything but typical. Alongside her eclectic crew, which includes a dryad and a dream walker, she navigates a labyrinth of supernatural encounters, solving problems that go beyond fixing cars. With each ghostly client, Frankie delves into their past, unearthing secrets that challenge everything she thought she knew about death—and herself. The series explores themes of redemption, personal growth, and the often complicated relationships between the living and the dead, making for a deeply emotional and engaging experience.

The world Edwards crafts is a rich tapestry where magic, mystery, and mythology intertwine seamlessly. From shadowy creatures to powerful spellcasters, each book unfolds with new layers of intrigue and surprising twists. The Body Shop stands out in the urban fantasy genre by balancing dark, atmospheric storytelling with moments of humanity that will resonate with readers long after the final page.

With characters that grow and evolve, and a plot that weaves between the supernatural and the deeply personal, this series offers much more than mere escapism. It’s a deep dive into what it means to truly move on, both in life and in death. Perfect for fans of compelling, emotionally-driven fantasy with a unique edge, The Body Shop invites you to take a ride through a world where the dead aren’t the only ones with something to resolve.
