In the shadows of New Orleans, the dead do not rest quietly, and neither do the living.
When old magic begins to stir beneath the city, a fragile circle of wounded souls finds themselves drawn together by grief, secrets, and forces far older than any of them understand. Lucien Devereux carries elegance like armor. Evelyn has buried more of herself than she can afford to remember. Renard Blackwood knows the price of every bargain, but not how to escape his own nature. Sister Mercy has survived on faith, though faith alone may no longer be enough.
As ghosts gather, hidden histories begin to surface, and the city itself seems to lean closer, watching. What begins as a series of strange encounters deepens into something more dangerous: a web of memory, longing, prophecy, and power that threatens to unmake them all. To survive, they will have to face what haunts them, what binds them, and what waits in the dark beneath New Orleans.
Tongue of the Serpent is a lush Southern Gothic fantasy novel in 18 episodes, filled with haunted courtyards, dangerous devotion, impossible bargains, and the fragile, ferocious love of found family.
