It helps that the town is presided over by Daisy Johanssen, who as Hel’s liaison is authorized by the Norse goddess of the dead to keep Pemkowet under control. Normally, that’s easier to do in the winter, when bracing temperatures keep folks indoors.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nBut a new predator is on the prowl, and this one thrives on nightmares. Daisy is on her trail and working intimately with her partner and sometime lover from the Pemkowet PD, sexy yet unavailable werewolf Cody Fairfax. But even as the creature is racking up innocent victims, a greater danger looms on Pewkowet’s horizon.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nAs a result of a recent ghost uprising, an unknown adversary—represented by a hell-spawn lawyer with fiery powers of persuasion—has instigated a lawsuit against the town. If Pemkowet loses, Hel’s sovereignty will be jeopardized, and the fate of the eldritch community will be at stake. The only one who can prevent it is Daisy—but she’s going to have to confront her own worst nightmare to do it.\u003cbr\u003e\n      Review      \u003cbr\u003e\nPraise for Jacqueline Carey and the Agent of Hel Novels \u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\n“Jacqueline Carey proves her versatility with this compelling piece of urban fantasy.” —#1\u003cbr\u003e\nNew York Times Bestselling Author Charlaine Harris\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\n“Fans have come to expect the amazing from [\u003cbr\u003e\nNew York Times bestselling author Jacqueline Carey] and her new urban fantasy series won’t disappoint them.”—\u003cbr\u003e\nLibrary Journal (Starred Review)\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\n“Insanely addictive.”—\u003cbr\u003e\nNews and Sentinel (Parkersburg, WV)\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\n“World building that recalls [George R.

Don’t get me wrong—it’s still a beautiful place, but you have to work a little harder to see the beauty. Except for the dark green pines, the trees are naked and barren. It’s overcast more often than not, a sullen gray sky reflected in the gray waters of the Kalamazoo River.\u003cbr\u003e\nStill, it makes you appreciate the subtler charms that it’s easy to overlook on a bright summer day: the tawny expanses of marsh grass waving gracefully along the shallow verges of the river, the elegant yellow-gold traceries of willow branches draping toward the water.\u003cbr\u003e\nAnd of course the dunes, the vast sand dunes, rendered more majestic without the foliage of cottonwood, oak, and birch trees that disguises their scope in the growing season. Those dunes are what make a little town in southwest Michigan such a popular tourist destination. Well, the dunes, the white-sand beaches on the shores of Lake Michigan, and the eldritch community—and, last month, the hauntings.\u003cbr\u003e\nI was glad that was over. It had been a close call, but the gateway between the dead and the living was closed. The annual Halloween parade had been a debacle, but it hadn’t turned into a cataclysmic bloodbath.
