Zealot

"Lacing magic and demons, the author takes us on a freefall ride of terror and violence as Nicole and her friends take on the monsters that hide and feed on the innocent." - Dave Wickenden, Author of Homegrown

Nicole Fontane thought her demons were buried deep enough.

She was wrong.

After barely escaping the blood bath of the Harvest ritual, Nicole and her vigilante compatriots learn that there are others practicing blood magick on Tulare Island.

Hired to rid the island of the remaining blood magick users, Nicole and her allies come face to face with The Better Day Church and the mysterious Young Family, whose nefarious behavior is well known on the island. The murky organization stirs old memories of a cult buried deep in the Louisiana bayou-flickers of Nicole's traumatic past and the altar she barely escaped.

But when Nicole receives an invitation to the Young family's private residence to attend a secret meeting with The Daughters of the Vine-an elusive sect of women led by Gavina Young-she knows there is no escaping her fraught history with cults. The invite is clearly a trap, but it's also an opportunity to take down the church.

Nicole soon learns that the sickness lurking behind the walls of the Young family's manor runs far deeper than the banal allure of blood magick. The church's matriarch harbors a predatory interest in Nicole's power-barely disguising her desire to harness it.

Nicole must unravel the mysteries of her newfound abilities, or her first job may be her last.

Worst of all, she may end up on the altar again.
