A missing girl. A murder spree. A deadly game.
Four years ago, Eve Williams held a coveted position with the Druid Brotherhood. A skilled necromancer, she made a name for herself within the elite law enforcement community... until a crucial mistake virtually erased her good work and destroyed her reputation. Now, having been cast aside from the magic community, she spends her days catering to the whims of human clients and answering questions their departed loved ones left behind. When she's hired to locate a missing woman, she believes she can resolve it in short order, but soon, disturbing clues reveal haunting details that will bring her life full circle. A series of ritualistic murders of her fellow necromancers are only the beginning of what will prove to be the most difficult task she's ever faced. Old friends, broken alliances, sword-wielding druids, psychotic trolls, and bitter betrayals come together to push Eve to her limits. Bramble and Blood is the first book in the Eve Williams urban fantasy series. Readers who enjoy Patricia Briggs, Faith Hunter, Seanan McGuire, Jim Butcher, Ilona Andrews, and Anne Bishop will likely enjoy this series.
