A torrid, atmospheric fantasy that satisfies on all fronts. -Kirkus Reviews (starred review)
When monsters stalk the darkness of Prohibition era Chicago, it takes a special kind of hero to kill them.
Private detective Mark Van Ryn's supernatural power over shadow has made him an outcast his whole life. When a mutated creature starts eating Chicago's gangsters from the inside out, Mark is the only man in the city who can hunt it down and destroy it. But a dangerous lady has a job for Mark too, one that might cost him more than his life.
Gifted perfumer Eliza Karlova needs a man. The most evil man in Chicago. And she needs Mark to find him for her. Because Eliza has a deadly power of her own and a family curse she's doomed to keep. But when forbidden passion flames up between Eliza and the angelically handsome detective, she has to decide between her destiny, and the man she loves.
War brews in the city as the Century of Progress World's Fair draws near, and Mark and Eliza must find a way to trust each other if their love, and Chicago, are to survive.
Gritty and gripping, powerful and sexy, Shadow and Poison will have your heart racing with each kill and every searing kiss. -Max Watson, author of Chains of Nurture
This is one of those stories that literally pulled me into it and I couldn't put it down until the end. -Corrina Lawson, author of Rise of the Firestarter
