Requiem for the Dead: Cover Reveal, Copy, and a Release Date!

For all the Dreg City fans who've been waiting patiently since last January for the next Evy Stone novel, it's almost here!  I am beyond thrilled with the cover created for me by Robin Ludwig Design, Inc.  It's fabulous and perfect and it fits with the rest of the series.

I'm so proud to show it off!




She's died twice while protecting her city…and she'd do it again to save the people she loves.

After a deadly, artificial infection forces the vampire Families into a self-imposed isolation, the city's protective Watchtower forces are depleted by one third, leaving humans and shifters to shoulder the burden.  Human enforcer Evangeline Stone is determined to find a way to help her vampire allies, but she already has her hands full—investigating an escalating series of goblin attacks, dealing with her half-werewolf lover, locating three missing werewolf teenagers, and learning to trust her non-human coworkers.

When a potential cure for the vampires' infection is given to her by an unlikely source, it's just as quickly stolen—collateral damage in a power play within the were-cat Clan that leaves one human ally dead and another horribly injured.  With Wyatt Truman still adjusting to his new life as a half-werewolf, Phineas missing in action, and her shifter allies crippled by internal anarchy, Evy has to rely on her own strength and instincts to steal back the cure, stop a murderer, and to save the Watchtower before it's destroyed from the inside out.

 
 Marcus!  *grin* I love that grumpy puss.

Since I don't know exactly how all of the uploading to Amazon and B&N works, this is a tentative release date, but I hope to have this puppy ready for sale by September 16th.

What do you think? Excited for some shapeshifter drama?

OMGosh! I had no idea that you were continuing the series on your own. I'm so happy! I can't wait to read more with Evy, Wyatt, and crew.

Now if only Kelly Gay could find a way to give us more Charlie Madigan my reading life would be complete.
