"The characters are complex and indelible, the plot is fascinating, I can hardly wait for another book" - Charlaine Harris, author behind the hit TV series True Blood.
The first book in a gripping new urban fantasy series, The Downside Ghosts.
Fast-paced and enthralling, Unholy Ghosts is Stacia Kane's electric foray into the world of urban fantasy. Introducing readers to her freewheeling and gritty rival to True Blood's Sookie Stackhouse, Chess Putnam is a fully-tattooed witch and ghost hunter who has a real talent for nailing human liars and banishing the wicked dead.
Already garnering immense praise and momentum, Unholy Ghosts is the most exciting and hotly anticipated urban fantasy debut of 2010. Kane has created a mesmerising world of greasers, murderous spirits, ruthless drug dealers and black magic. Gripping, vivid and utterly unputdownable Unholy Ghosts is certain to quickly become a popular favourite.
The world is not the way it was. The dead have risen and constantly attack the living. The powerful Church of Real Truth, in charge since the government fell, has sworn to reimburse citizens being harassed by the deceased. Consequently, there are many false claims of hauntings from those hoping to profit.
Enter Chess Putnam, a freewheeling Debunker and ghost hunter ... who's also keeping a dark secret from the Church: a little drug problem that's landed her in hot and dangerous water...
Stacia Kane wears a lot of black, makes great cocktails, likes to play music loud in the car, and thinks Die Hard is one of the greatest movies ever made. Her debut novel, Personal Demons, was chosen by Barnes & Noble's Paul Goat Allen as one of the best paranormal releases of 2008. She lives outside Atlanta with her husband and their two little girls.
