Summary

Queen Serena and her allies have fled the massacre, taking Princess Linka with them.
 
For Jean, it's heartbreak; for his friends, far worse. Leaving the Arctic ice behind, Jean and the others must come to terms with their losses, as they close in on the Baltic home of the hated Duke Gorgon.
 
As the lies around him unravel, Jean marches from one infuriating revelation to another. Finally, he must do what he's never done before: place his trust in others.
 
For only at the end of all things, as the sun dies and Shangri-La falls, will Jean know what it means to step into eternity.

    The story involves a mine that uncovers a very deep chasm, too deep for any sounding lines to hit bottom. The night after the discovery of the abyss the narrator and one of the mine's workers, a Mexican called Juan Romero, venture together inside the mine, drawn against their will by a mysterious rhythmical throbbing in the ground. Romero reaches the abyss first and is swallowed by it. The narrator peers over the edge, sees something – "but God, I dare not tell you what I saw!" and loses consciousness. The next morning, the narrator and the deceased Romero are both found in their bunks. Other miners swear that neither of them left their cabin that night. The chasm has vanished as well.

    Miss Radhika Dhingra, a newly minted lawyer in nineteenth century New York, never expected that her first client would be a vampire accused of murder. 
     
     
     
    Having a resident vampire is just the thing for upper-class New Yorkers—besides being a status symbol, they make excellent butlers or housekeepers. The only thing they require in return is a drop or two of blood and a casket to shut out the dawn's early light. 
     
     
     
    Tolerated by society only if they follow a strict set of rules, vampires are seen as "less than"—and as the daughter of immigrants, Radhika knows firsthand how this feels. Accused of murder, her undead client Mr. Evelyn More, knows that the cards are stacked against him. 
     
     
     
    With the help of a journalist friend and a diminutive detective inspector, Miss Dhingra sets out to prove her client's innocence and win his freedom. Failure will mean Mr. More's death, the end of her dreams of becoming a successful attorney, and the loss of the vampire Miss Dhingra has begun to call her friend. 
     
     
     
    Offering an alternative paranormal history, delightful characters, and insightful social commentary, The Vampire of Kings Street will thrill fans of Deanna Rayburn and Rebecca Roanhorse.

    A Whitlow is missing, and the quest to find her takes Tula and her sisters to a dangerous and magical island off the coast of Savannah. She'll need to survive an unearthly hoard, a disappearing sun, spirits gone mad, alligators, and maybe the scariest of all, a group of drunken thespians. 
     
     
     
    In the search for her cousin, Tula will begin to scratch the surface of a mystery that could destroy the thing she holds most dear—her own birthright as a Whitlow. What she's learned could open up access to a power she never believed was possible. But it's a power born of darkness, and touching it comes at a cost.
