Dead to the World

Discover the enigmatic world of Lorelei Clay in "Dead to the World," the riveting inaugural installment of the Crossroads Queen series, an urban fantasy saga that upends the genre. Lorelei Clay is a paradox, a being whose unique powers traverse the shadowy realm of nightmares and whisper to the souls of the departed. Her mundane talent? Crafting the perfect slice of crispy, golden-brown bacon—a task she accomplishes without a hint of sorcery. Nestled against the haunting backdrop of a Gilded Age relic that looms beside the local cemetery, Lorelei's new home in the tranquil town of Fairhaven, Pennsylvania, is a renovator's dream—or curse. Content in her self-imposed exile amidst the whispers of the dead, her solitude is shattered when a young woman vanishes, thrusting Lorelei into the town's supernatural underbelly. In her quest, Lorelei must navigate a labyrinth of encounters with the town's most elusive inhabitants: from the pragmatic human police chief to a clandestine coven, a cursed vampire entangled in eternal damnation, an underworld assassins' guild, a tight-knit pack of werewolves, and the mystifying allure of the proprietor behind The Devil's Playground nightclub—a haven for supernaturals. Intent on rescuing the missing girl and retreating behind her castle's walls before her own secrets bubble to the surface, Lorelei discovers that even the most meticulous plans can unravel. "Dead to the World" offers readers an enthralling escape into a heroine's journey, threaded with mystery, camaraderie, and the intriguing possibility that the biggest puzzles lie within. Join Lorelei Clay as she confronts the unknown, both around her and within, in this spellbinding new series where the supernatural is commonplace and nothing is as ordinary as it seems.
