When Sylvie Lightner, South Miami Beach's only unlicensed
supernatural detective, finds the bodies of five women in
the Everglades, she thinks it's the work of a serial killer
and passes the buck. Or attempts to. Then the bodies wake
and shift shape, attacking and killing the police
investigators, Sylvie's right back on the job. She recruits
a necromancer, to help her, and together, they learn the
truth: these shape-shifting women are the victims of a
legendary sorcerer known as the soul-devourer, a man who has
mingle alchemy, shape-shifting, and death magic into a
gruesome whole. The soul-devourer has left a trail of dead women throughout
the Gulf States, and Sylvie's determined that he'll be
stopped here. That's before she learns he is so much more
than a feared sorcerer--he's an immortal one, cursed by an
angry god. It is hard enough to kill an immortal being, but
it's even harder to take out the one who's learned to use
human magics to outrun a god...
