She inherited a house. A necklace. A nightmare centuries in the making.

When Elle Beauregard returns to New Orleans, she expects to sort through her grandmother's estate—not to discover she's the last guardian standing between the living and something ancient, hungry, and wearing her grandmother's voice.

Detective Mateo Cruz has seen enough to know when someone's in danger. What he hasn't seen is magic that burns through technology, illusions that taste like memory, and a woman whose very existence threatens to unravel reality.

He’ll face them all to keep Elle safe—even if it costs him everything.

As cursed objects multiply and the city's magical defenses crumble, Elle uncovers a truth that changes everything: her bloodline doesn't just carry magic. It carries a debt. And payment is coming due.

Will Elle claim her birthright in time to save those she loves? Or will New Orleans' darkest secret finally break free?

Grab your copy and discover why some inheritances come with a curse.
