Haint - Paperback

by Brya Arcement (Author), Brya Gatsbry Arcement (Author)

Gillian Batiste St. Julian had the perfect life until she discovered her husband's betrayal with her childhood best friend.

When Xavier's infidelity shatters her world, Gillian flees to Sweethome Manor, ancestral home of the most powerful conjure women in the Deep South. Here, among the ancient live oaks and whispered secrets, her grandmother Jaq prepares to crown her the next Mistress; inheritor of centuries of supernatural knowledge written in the margins of a blood-stained family Bible.

But before Gillian can claim her birthright, she has debts to settle. Miles away, Xavier writhes as grotesque visions plague his waking hours and haints whisper his failures in the dark. His mistress Bliss revels in her stolen happiness, pregnant and planning a future that erases Gillian, until she discovers the true cost of her betrayal.

In the sultry heat of Louisiana, where Spanish moss hangs like funeral shrouds and the veil between worlds is thin, Gillian weaves a supernatural trap that will forever reshape three lives. Some betrayals demand more than forgiveness. Some require a reckoning that reaches beyond the grave.

The folks of Sweethome are about to witness revenge unfold like an old hymn: slow, deliberate, and soulshaking.
