Spells & Ashes
Kim Richardson - 2019
But I’m not your average dark witch. I specialize in Goetia—the ancient art of conjuring demons—and exorcisms. That’s right. I hunt and banish demons and other supernatural baddies. But not with a fancy sword or a dagger. No, I banish these suckers with good old-fashioned magic. All is well until a human girl is murdered and her soul taken by a Greater demon. It gets worse. Human bodies are dropping like flies and it’s up to me to find the Greater demon and kill it. But everyone knows it’s not that simple. I might have to reveal my secret... if it came to light, I would be dead and all my friends with me. Spells & Ashes is a fast-paced urban fantasy adventure with a kick butt heroine, plenty of action, suspense and humor. Grab your copy today.
