The Hunt Before Christmas

By LJK Oliva

Celebrate the holidays, San Francisco-style!

Join your favorite characters from L.J.K. Oliva's Shades Below, Shadowlines, and Shadownotes series in a holiday spectacular you don't want to miss!

Go ice skating in Civic Center Plaza, attend the witchiest holiday party ever, receive a festive visitation by a most unusual ghost, take a *slay* ride to remember, and spend an evening revisiting Christmas past with the city's most infamous - and bloodthirsty - Son.

But all is not peace and goodwill in the city by the Bay. The Wild Hunt is afoot, and San Francisco is what's on the menu.

Can Lena, MacMillian, and all their friends put an end to the deadly festivities before it's too late?

LJK Oliva

L.J.K. OLIVA writes gritty urban fantasy in the Shades Below ShadowVerse. She spent much of her childhood exploring the creeks and storm drain tunnels near her house, and remains fascinated by the places no one notices. After all, that's where magic lives. When not poking the thing that lives in her closet, L.J.K. enjoys exploring the shadows of the San Francisco Bay Area and searching for faeries in every creek within driving distance. She hasn't found any yet, but thinks that's because they're better at hiding than she is at looking. She's still waiting for one to slip up.
