About A Vigil in the
Mourning:
The devil you know is
never the one you should trust.
Special Agent Patrick Collins is dispatched to Chicago,
chasing a lead on the Morrígan’s staff for the joint task force. Needing a
cover for his presence in the Windy City, Patrick is ordered to investigate a
politician running for mayor. In the lead up to election day, not everything is
what it seems in a city where playing to win means appeasing the gods first and
the electorate second.
But Chicago brings its own set of problems outside the case:
a stand-offish local god pack, a missing immortal, and Patrick’s twin sister.
Fighting Hannah and the Dominion Sect provides Patrick with a sinister reminder
that some blood ties can never be cut.
Left behind in New York City, Jonothon de Vere finds himself
targeted by hunters who will go through anyone to kill him—including the packs
under his protection. With a bounty on his head, Jono is forced to make a
choice that Patrick would never approve of. Doing so risks breaking the trust
he’s built with the man he loves, but not acting will give the rival New York
City god pack leverage Jono can’t afford to give up.
When Patrick and Jono reunite in Chicago, Patrick must
confront the fraying of a relationship he’s come to rely on for his own sanity.
But fixing their personal problems will have to wait—because Niflheim is
clawing at the shores of Lake Michigan and the dead are hungry.
A Vigil in the
Mourning is a 102k word m/m urban fantasy with a gay romantic subplot and a HFN
ending. It is a direct sequel to A Crown of Iron & Silver. Reading the
first book in the series would be helpful in enjoying this one.
Praise for A Vigil in
the Mourning (Soulbound #4):
Patrick
and Jono fight for their lives, tangling with Norse gods and monsters, while
their relationship is strained by secrets and separation, in another exciting,
deliciously angsty ride from Turner's Soulbound series. — Layla Reyne, author
of the Fog City Trilogy
VIGIL IN
MOURNING takes the Soulbound series a step further into stellar story crafting.
A change in scenery for Patrick and a separation from his soulmate raises the
stakes, and cliches are deftly avoided and expectations shattered as the
central love story becomes fraught with tension. Each plot twist leaves the
reader gasping and clinging to the pages, and I was not expecting that ending.
Jono and Patrick lead an ensemble cast of characters that includes a snack
obsessed dragon, a seer with a sarcasm problem, and gods that can't help but
meddle. Patrick's snarktastic attitude leaves me laughing and terrified at the
trouble he calls down. — SJ Himes,
bestselling author
A Vigil In the Mourning Teaser Excerpt:
Jono shoved the mobile into his
back pocket before opening the front door. He ducked his head against the cold
wind and jogged to where everyone was gathered on the sidewalk. Slowing to a
stop, he turned around and stared at the building.
“Is this really necessary?” Jono
asked after a moment.
“Yes,” Sage replied flatly.
“Did you talk to our landlord?”
“Gargoyles are allowed to choose
what building they want to live on and the owners have to let them.
Most people
consider their presence an asset to the property value,” Tiarnán said.
Jono eyed the trio of gargoyles
sniffing about the front of the building, their stone bodies moving with a
surprising smoothness as they searched for the best perches. “They eat pigeons
and leave feathers everywhere.”
“They also eat vermin.”
“Does that include trespassing
werecreatures?” Marek wanted to know.
