Death Witch Rising

A dark, witchy romantic fantasy, perfect for fans of the gas-lamp atmosphere of Penny Dreadful and the eeriness of T. Kingfisher. When a witch with the ability to see the dead and an ex-witch hunter collide, sparks fly as they try to save the world from the Devil himself. Analise is a death witch, able to see and hear the dead. Death witches have been hunted to near extinction, so Analise keeps her head down, focused on her job in a morgue—until a ghost from one of the victims on her slab throws her life sideways. Meanwhile, Ezra, once the city’s most celebrated witch hunter, now gets by as a prizefighter for a notorious gangster. When he’s asked to track down a death witch for the Church, he uncovers a secret society, the beginning of the end of days . . . and Analise. In a city drowning in smog and secrets, death is never the end—it’s the beginning of a war for your soul. Analise and Ezra are thrown together to save the world’s souls, and there’s an undeniable heat between them. As the Devil begins calling in his debts, they’ll have to face the wounds of the past and find a way forward, together. With the magic and mystery of V. E. Schwab’s A Darker Shade of Magic and the eerie Victorian vibes of Vivian Shaw’s Dr. Greta Helsing series, this spicy gaslamp enemies-to-lovers romantasy is poised to become your next obsession.
