Series: Hangfire

Dangerous magic tangles this sweeping Jazz Age fantasy when an archaeology student faces myth and monsters to protect her family and break a blood curse.

As 1920s London swelters in the grip of Egyptomania, archaeology student Rom Godden wishes she was anywhere else. Lectures are dull, spring makes her restless, and the dog she inherited from her grandfather is acting stranger by the day. But when the dog saves her from a monstrous attack, Rom sets out to investigate-and uncovers a deadly family legacy.

Along with her dearest friend, Rom joins forces with her sceptical brother to navigate an underworld of shapeshifters and blood magic. Deception stalks them. Their precocious young stepbrother hides secrets of his own. If everyone plays for themselves, who can be trusted?

One wrong choice could threaten everyone she loves, and Rom will have to bargain for her freedom as she confronts the truth of her inheritance: every promise has its price.

L.B. Hazelthorn is an editor, artist, and author of strange fictions. Born in an Australian cane town and home-schooled by fanatical doomsdayers, they spent the first few chapters of their future memoir learning Latin and becoming way too interested in medieval guilds. After emerging into the twenty-first century they travelled for a decade, living in boats, tents, and various forms of artistic penury. They currently live in lutruwita/Tasmania with multiple offspring and a kitchen full of long-suffering ferns.
