During her latest case in the streets of Hell's Kitchen, Kana comes across a familiar face who has tracked her down to help him find his sister. This starts a chain of events leading to the Dismal Swamp—a massive wetland on the Virginia/North Carolina border rumored to be swarming with spirits of the past. It is also the supposed domain of a fearsome group of supernatural entities known as The Burning Gods. Kana's mysterious past, life-threatening present, and uncertain future all collide in this new adventure with a shocking ending that changes the series, and Kana, forever.
If you enjoy stories from Kevin Hearne, Jim Butcher, Shayne Silvers, Patricia Briggs, Faith Hunter, or Clive Barker's more imaginative series like The Great and Secret Show, you will enjoy reading the wild paranormal thriller adventures of Kana Cold.

A: I love weird stories, it's why I have a Facebook group called The Wonderfully Weird. Urban Fantasy is full of so many great stories and characters, but I wanted to write something that went beyond wizards, zombies, and vampires or Greek and Roman mythology. There are thousands of strange myths, old and new, that haven't been explored that can be made into great stories. The Reaping of the Black Grimoires is based on the very real grimoires written by former Popes and are rumored to be locked away in the Vatican Archives. There are African and Scandinavian mythologies I want to dig into as well. And of course, since Kana is of Japanese heritage, the treasure trove of Japanese legends and Eastern philosophy will be explored in a narrative form.
Kana's heritage is also important. We've heard so much about how underrepresented Asians are in Western pop culture, even when the stories are based on popular Asian properties (Death Note, Ghost in the Shell to name a few). I decided to flip it: Kana's in a world where her contemporaries look and act like the typical heroes of the stories – buxom blondes and suave, muscular leading men – and she struggles with measuring herself against these people despite how good she is. That's a theme throughout the series.
