what to think. Is Helen mad? Is someone else trying to harm the

tarot for a clue, and Riga is hurled into an investigation that

knows dead. More intimately than she’d like. So when a murdered
photographer walks away from her pre-wedding party, she believes

her wedding guests are under the influence of dark magic, she’s
certain. But how can she catch a killer and stop a necromancer when
even her nearest and dearest are lying to her?

romance, mystery, and the metaphysical, The Infernal Detective is a
fast-paced urban fantasy, where nothing is quite as it seems, and
magic lies just beyond the veil.
