Rest in Power Necromancy Series

  A New Age cult. A paranormal killing. How can a necromancer defeat an enemy that's already claimed her soul?   "A human body should burn red-yellow or orange. But these flames were bright cobalt blue. All flame. No smoke."   Necromancer Kezia Bernard sees her ability as both a blessing and curse. While it's an honor to connect the African diaspora to their deceased ancestors and channel magic from the past, her power is overshadowed by a crushing affliction. One that cost her a career as a scientist and the family she loves more than life.    When a millionaire cultist mysteriously burns to death by supernatural fire, it's up to necromancer Kezia Bernard to investigate the source of this brutal magic. Armed with the ancestral gifts of preternatural senses, Kezia vows to uncover the nemesis incinerating the cult's members.   But when the villain she's hunting brands her with the same scorching magic, she knows her time is running out. If she can't destroy the source of the fire smoldering within her, even the powerful protection of her ancestors won't save her from a twisted fate that ventures far beyond death...   "...And so I shall possess you, my sweet! Consume your very soul. And drink you down and breathe you out and then we both shall sleep."   Whip-smart and darkly mystical with page-turning twists, the Rest in Power Necromancy trilogy is a complete, spellbinding urban fantasy & paranormal mystery series for fans of K.F. Breene, N.K. Jemisin, Patricia Briggs, and Jim Butcher.

Why is there only one necromancer in a city that should have hundreds?   After freeing a cult from the evil that tormented its members, necromancer Kezia Bernard is thrilled to receive an offer to study under world-famous Evangeline Morris. Not only is Evangeline the last necromancer in Atlanta, she also has what Kezia wants most: a cure for the affliction that can kill those who remain too long in a necromancer's presence.   Or so Kezia thought.   A mysterious scourge has revived Evangeline's affliction, killing a member of her household and putting the rest in imminent danger. Fearing the darkness that robbed the city of its necromancers is closing in on its final victim, Kezia must act fast to save her mentor from an unthinkable fate. Little does she know the spider that holds Atlanta in its web is far more insidious than she could imagine.   Can Kezia root out the blight before it destroys her mentor? Or will she discover nothing can stop the necromancer's curse–not even her?

A malevolent obsession is driving the innocent to their graves.   Necromancer Kezia Bernard is one step closer to curing her affliction, a powerful curse that has kept her apart from ex-husband Marcus and their child. Determined to free herself and her community from the shackles of the past, she's ready to unleash the magic buried in her DNA. But before she can, she must mend Marcus's soul before she loses him forever.   While in Chicago to enroll a deteriorating Marcus in a specialized psychiatric program, Kezia investigates a series of child deaths in a nearby town. But when she discovers a terrible link between the victims and necromancy, a conflicted Kezia must face a monstrous realization—the dark corruptions of necromancy may be waiting inside her, too.   Can Kezia free the tortured souls from a reign of madness? Or will the revenge of the tormented cost Kezia her salvation?

What can a necromancer do when the dying won't die? Kezia Bernard is a necromancer and hoodoo worker who comforts the dying, guiding them to their ancestors on the other side. But when a witch doctor with a rare talent prevents Kezia's sick, elderly patients from dying, Kezia is the only person who can end his cruel manipulation of life, suffering, and death. The only problem? The witch doctor in question is already dead. With hoodoo and death magic at her fingertips, a living opponent would be no match for Kezia. But when life is used as a weapon, will necromancy be enough to lay the suffering to rest? This dark, sophisticated novella is a prequel to the Rest in Power Necromancy series. The series is a must-read for fans of N.K. Jemisin, Kim Harrison, Jim Butcher, Tomi Adeyemi, and Patricia Briggs.
