<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>Daughter of a demon and supernatural liaison to the Pemkowet Police Department, Daisy Johanssen discovers that a high-ranking official in town is descended from sorcerers who want him back home in Jamaica or they will unleash their dire magic on the town.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br>Fathered by an incubus, raised by a mortal mother, and liaison to the Pemkowet Police Department, Daisy Johanssen pulled the community together after a summer tragedy befell the resort town she calls home. Things are back to normal--as normal as it gets for a town famous for its supernatural tourism and presided over by the reclusive Norse goddess Hel. <p/>Not only has Daisy now gained respect as Hel's enforcer; she's dating Sinclair Palmer, a nice, seemingly normal human guy. Not too shabby for the daughter of a demon. Unfortunately, Sinclair has a secret. And it's a big one. <p/>He's descended from obeah sorcerers, and they want him back. If he doesn't return to Jamaica to take up his rightful role in the family, they'll unleash spirit magic that could have dire consequences for the town. It's Daisy's job to stop it, and she's going to need a lot of help. But time is running out, the dead are growing restless, and one mistake could cost Daisy everything....<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br><b>Praise for <i>Autumn Bones </i></b><br>Carey's gift of storytelling ensure that every scene is immersive and engaging as she slowly builds to a surprising climax that will have readers starving for the next installment in this wonderfully imaginative series.--<i>RT Book Reviews</i><br>[It]'s supernatural chick lit, magical smalltown slice-of-life drama...a lighthearted cozy mystery...offers promise for future volumes.--<i>Publishers Weekly</i><b>Praise for <i>Dark Currents</i></b><br>Jacqueline Carey proves her versatility with this compelling and delightful piece of urban fantasy.--#1 <i>New York Times </i>Bestselling author Charlaine Harris<br>Since the advent of Carey's 'Kushiel Legacy' historical fantasy series in 2001, fans have come to expect the amazing from this author, and her new urban fantasy won't disappoint them. . . .
