New York Times bestselling author Tosca Lee brings a
modern twist to an ancient mystery surrounding the most
notorious female serial killer of all time. A fast-paced
thriller for fans of Lee’s Books of Mortals series with Ted
Dekker, Dan Brown’s The Da Vinci Code, and BBC
America’s hit series Orphan Black.
Emily Porter is the descendant of a serial killer. Now,
she’s become the hunted.
She’s on a quest that will take her to the secret
underground of Europe and the inner circles of three ancient
orders—one determined to kill her, one devoted to keeping
her alive, and one she must ultimately save.
Filled with adrenaline, romance, and reversals, The
Progeny is the present-day saga of a 400-year-old war
between the uncanny descendants of “Blood Countess”
Elizabeth Bathory, the most prolific female serial killer of
all time, and a secret society dedicated to erasing every
one of her descendants. A story about the search for self
amidst centuries-old intrigues and Europe’s underground
scene…and one woman’s mission to survive.
