Life is a battlefield. Death is just a girl.
'Paranormal lovers rejoice, your new obsession has arrived!' HANNAH WHITTEN
Jocasta has built a normal life at Beecher University - well, as normal it can be when you're the only child of Death.
No one close to her knows the truth about who - or what - she is. Or that she must feed to survive, and she feeds on them - their disappointments, failures, and quiet regrets. It's not a perfect system, but it works . . . for now.
Jo has found friends and a place she finally belongs - and she's almost forgotten the one person she should never have wanted. But when a mysterious new arrival - a descendant of Lust - comes to campus, he brings a message that changes everything: Death has named her his successor.
Now she's both a powerful ally and a massive threat, and every relationship she's built is now a weakness.
But Beecher University is the one place that has ever felt like home, and Jo will do anything to protect it. Even if the closer she gets to her power, the less she recognises herself . . .
✨ Gods & descendants in the modern world
✨ A mystery that won't stay buried

No one knows who she truly is
to everyone she is a friend or
a student attending the same
university as them .
But what they don't know is that she
must feed to survive,
but she refuses to kill.
Instead she feeds on people's disappointments,
failures, and rejections.
She believes she has created the
perfect system one that allows her to
survive without taking lives while
hiding who she truly is .
But everything starts to change when
a descendant of Lust appears
and tells her that she is next in line
the chosen successor destined
to continue Death’s legacy.
It's a role she wants absolutely
no part of.
At the same time, bodies begin
turning up, and suspicion starts
to spread.
Can she uncover who is behind the
killings before it's too late,
or will she become suspect
number one?
This is a dark, spicy fantasy that kept me wanting to listen and read on
I really enjoyed listening to it on audio
and would definitely recommend giving it a try.
Whichever way you decide to
read this I'm sure you'll enjoy it 🖤🖤
