She’s about to discover what it means to go to the dark side in the second Golgotham fantasy from the award-winning author of the Blade Runner series.
Metal artist Tate has made Golgotham—New York City’s supernatural neighborhood—her home, and she couldn’t be happier. Sure, there are some inconveniences living among Golgotham’s resident leprechauns, shapeshifters, and merfolk, but her new wizard boyfriend Hexe makes up for them. Sadly, there are some problems she can’t ignore . . .
Golgotham has become the destination for hipster humans. Rising tensions between the locals and tourists explode in a street brawl that brings the PTU (Paranormal Threat Unit) and NYPD into the fray. The political fallout gives rise to opposing factions that seek to sow chaos, with Hexe’s uncle leading the anti-human party—and wielding the powerful dark magic of the Left Hand path.
As their relationship becomes a lightning rod, Tate is determined to stand her ground—even as her neighbors become the targets of witch-bashing and she herself is attacked by a demon. Desperate to stop an all-out war between humans and Golgothamites, Tate and Hexe uncover long-held secrets that put the entire city at the mercy of a festering hatred turned twisted obsession.
There’s no place for hate in Golgotham. At least not in Tate’s backyard . . .
