Suspense

  • Hell to Pay

    Ever feel like you were born under a dark star and just can’t catch any luck? I doubt your woes would hold a candle to those of the people in this book. The Cavalon and Walsh families had the extreme misfortune to have a run in with the Quinn family two books ago (Live to…

Primarily told as a series of sessions…
