Lucinda is as old as humanity itself, yet perpetually young and endowed with supernatural powers. Born out of a betrayal between the first woman, Eve, and Lucifer, Lucinda has worked covertly for millennia to be true to her motherβs love by subverting her fatherβs schemes. In her human guise, she manages Lucindaβs Pawnshop & Antiquary, the doors of which can open to any street anywhere in the world at any time. Mortals who have arrived at a moral or spiritual crossroads are drawn into the mysterious shop. If they acquire one of its cursed artifacts, they may find themselves drafted into Luciferβs service. When Lucinda falls in love with a mortal man, her clandestine mission to foil Luciferβs plans for Armageddon is threatened. Where do Lucindaβs true loyalties lie? Is she her motherβs child, or her fatherβs ally?
βA worthwhile jaunt for readers interested in a mix of magic, mankind, and the sinister ploys of the devil.β β Kirkus Reviews
