Check out what Ann Aguirre has to share with us. It’s the cover for Blue Diablo which is her new urban fantasy that comes out April 7, 2009. If the novel intrigues you, make sure you check out the excerpt, but here’s the blurb to whet your appetite.
Right now, I’m a redhead. I’ve been blonde and brunette as the situation requires, though an unscheduled color change usually means relocating in the middle of the night. So far, I’m doing well here. Nobody knows what I’m running from. And I’d like to keep it that way…
Eighteen months ago, Corine Solomon crossed the border to Mexico City, fleeing her past, her lover, and her “gift”. Corine, a handler, can touch something and know its history—and sometimes, its future. Using her ability, she can find the missing—and that’s why people never stop trying to find her. People like her ex, Chance…
Chance, whose uncanny luck has led him to her doorstep, needs her help. Someone dear to them both has gone missing in Laredo, Texas, and the only hope of finding her is through Corine’s gift. But their search may prove dangerous as the trail leads them into a strange dark world of demons and sorcerers, ghosts and witchcraft, zombies—and black magic…
I’ve not read anything from Aguirre but heard great things. Grimspace is on my TBR pile and as this an urban fantasy it has to go on my wishlist. Thanks for the heads up.
This sounds absolutely amazing and I LOVE Ann Aguirre!!
Oh I love stories about people have that gift (I can’t remember what it’s called something that starts with a c, I think)! I’ll have to try to get this!
Clairvoyance?
Reading an object by touch is called psychometry. I’m glad you guys like the cover and the look of the story. :)
I had no idea about this, thanks for sharing it! :)
