Has Melasina Cormier met her fiery match in Jasper Thibodeaux?MelasinaI've spent my entire life separating myself from the stain of my necromancer mother's dishonor. Exiled for using the dark arts, she had no choice but to break off all contact and leave the coven.

But when I wake up one morning covered in mud and smelling like death warmed-over, it doesn't take long to figure out that the apple didn't fall far from the necromancy tree. Enter Jasper Thibodeaux, the magical librarian in charge of New Orleans, who thinks all the recent grave robberies are a sign that my mother has returned.
