Sacrifice: Snarky Urban Fantasy

Book excerpt: When Agent Andrew Bradford returns from his post-demonic corruption hiatus, Shade is ready to give him time and space to heal. A nice quiet rest, free from magic, monsters, and murder. Too bad Andy has other ideas. The now less-than-human FBI agent is ready to get back to work, and he’s not taking no for an answer. Fortunately, a case falls into Shade’s lap that is perfect for the freshly returned law man—a rogue zombie a group of kids raised to celebrate Halloween. Silly witch. Nothing in the Otherworld is easy. The necromancer Shade calls to return the zombie to her grave finds one corpse too many in the cemetery. A corpse that leads to a desecrated church. An evil altar. Someone tried to summon an elder demon. And with Halloween only two days away, Shade knows they’ll try again. It’s Andy’s worst nightmare. And when he refuses to abandon the case, it becomes Shade’s worst nightmare too.
