True Dead (Jane Yellowrock, 14)
Jane Yellowrock goes back to the city where it all began in the newest installment of this thrilling New York Times best-selling series.
Jane used to hunt vampires, but now she's their queen. She's holed up in the mountains with the Yellowrock Clan, enjoying a little peace, when a surprise attack on her people proves that trouble is brewing. Someone is using very old magic to launch a bid for power, and it's all tied to the place where Jane was first drawn into the world of Leo Pellissier - the city of New Orleans.
Jane is compelled to return to NOLA because someone is trying to destabilize the paranormal world order. And because she now sits near the top of the vampire world, the assault is her problem. She will do what she must to protect what's hers. Her city. Her people. Her power. Her crown.
In True Dead, the fourteenth installment of Faith Hunter's thrilling Jane Yellowrock series, the stakes are higher than ever as Jane faces her most formidable adversaries yet.
As the leader of the Yellowrock Clan, a pack of skinwalkers, Jane has sworn to protect her people and her city, New Orleans. But when a powerful vampire, Angeline De Sade, declares war on the Yellowrocks, Jane finds herself in a deadly fight for survival.
Angeline is not like any vampire Jane has ever encountered before. She is ruthless, cunning, and fueled by an insatiable bloodlust. She will stop at nothing to destroy Jane and her pack, and she has the power to back up her threats.
As Jane battles Angeline and her minions, she uncovers a sinister conspiracy that threatens not only the Yellowrocks but all of New Orleans. A secret organization, known as the Order of the Black Sun, is plotting to overthrow the city's supernatural rulers and establish their own reign of terror.
With the fate of her city hanging in the balance, Jane must call upon all of her skills and abilities to defeat her enemies and save New Orleans. But even Jane may not be enough to stop Angeline and the Order of the Black Sun, who are determined to plunge the city into darkness.
