Alpha Heroesrecently found out that Jacqueline Carey is working on a new urban fantasy novel, Dark Currents, and wanted to know more. Guess who got a brief description:
Dark Currents is set in a small Midwestern resort town where paranormal tourism is a booming business. Daisy Johanssen, an incubus’ daughter raised by a loving single mom, is the liaison between the eldritch community and mundane authorities. Most of the time that doesn’t entail anything more challenging than retrieving stolen goods from a puckish pickpocket or tracking down a tourist led astray by a will-o’-the-wisp, but when a young man drowns in an apparent accident that’s not what it seems, Daisy’s job turns deadly earnest.
Jeri Smith-Ready will be making her WVMP series novella, Let It Bleed, available for free starting on May 27th. The story is integral to the series, so if you’re eagerly awaiting Lust for Life, make sure you grab this as well. Slight warning, Let It Bleed will only be free for one year.
