About this series
While Macconnach races against dwindling hope to reach Isabel, Colonel Arpan and Sir Robert find themselves faced with an enemy they cannot hope to defeat back at the fort.
Isabel is caught still in a demon’s web, and must find her way out, while Macconnach makes his way to her. Along the way, they both realize how far astray they have been led from the truth of their feelings, and what it is that each of them desires above all else.
And as each party in separate battles pit themselves against time and unspeakable horrors, the gods watch, and wait for the outcome.

Major Gordon Macconnach comes to India at the behest of General Lord Hugh Abington, to be his second-in-command, as well as to put his peculiar talents at the general’s disposal. The major is from an old family in the Highlands, which has always had its ties with the Fair Folk. Every generation has borne several Macconnachs with unusual abilities. For Macconnach, it means insight to the realm of death, and the sometimes strange machinations of the supernatural world. For the British Crown, men and women such as Macconnach are a secret in plain sight. Some of these individuals are assigned to military postings, some are spies, and some are diplomats. General Abington’s daughter, Isabelle Alderton, has only recently returned to her beloved India, after attending to her mother through a terminal illness. She has come back, knowing that she is of an age when most other young ladies are already settled into domesticity. The very idea of matrimony is enough to send her into cold fury. Much of the little time she interacts with the officers under her father’s command is spent parrying their marriage proposals. And so, she is understandably put off to find Macconnach pursuing her in the dark of night, as she slips out to make an unauthorized visit to a local village. Quickly, she finds that he isn’t like the other preening fools who are his peers. He is dark, strange, and far more insightful than she is comfortable with. After a few false starts, they find themselves launched on an adventure which will upend all of Isabelle’s comfortable notions of the world. On the way, in spite of their sparring, they also find themselves drawn to one another in a way neither of them had expected. If they can survive battling with demons, walking dead, and ancient evil, that is.

Major Macconnach has tried to leave the mistakes of his past behind, to make a new life. Greatest of all, he wishes to do no harm, to preserve life. His powers allow him to spare those whose time is not yet come, to do battle with unspeakable evils, and yet he knows he cannot protect the one person who has become of utmost importance. Isabel Alderton only knows that he has withdrawn, and will not see her. With wounded heart and pride, she sets off for Mumbai to greet her uncle, who has journeyed from England. Too late, Macconnach realizes that someone else has designs on her – too late to prevent her meeting a preternaturally charming nobleman on his own Grand Tour – too late to realize that he too has his own secrets to keep.

Her love of history and sociology are the two biggest influences on her writing, followed shortly by a love of all things magical and fantastic.In fact, it was being given the first few Harry Potter books (from children she was nannying at the time), that reawakened the desire to find the magic in our own world. It may not be as easy to see, or accomplish the same feats as that which comes from the wave of a wand - but it's out there.Kate lives in New England with her Minnesotan husband, and their two wild boys.
