A Vow of Blood - C M Quinn

Book number in series: Book 0.5

Set 10 years before ‘A Song of Death’

Monster. Vicious. Alone.

All Aya Sinclair has ever known since the extermination of her people is that no one can know her secret, or she too, will follow them to the grave. At sixteen, she’s made a name for herself in the Dusk Quarter but at a price.

Her latest mission ought to be a simple one, but a chance discovery will alter the course of her life—
forever. Now, she must do what she has never done before—trust a stranger, forge a bond, and her carve out the home she never thought possible.

For the last necromancer, it’s time for a little carnage.
