Synopsis

What is the price of vengeance? For Vex, it was everything.

She had a shot at elite hockey stardom and a boyfriend she planned to marry. Then, in a deserted alley, a brutal attack took it all. Stabbed and left for dead, Vex was forced to watch as her boyfriend was murdered in front of her.

But death is only the beginning.

As she bleeds out, she is visited by a demon wearing her estranged father's face. He offers her a pact: eternal service in exchange for the power to destroy the men who took everything from her.

Vex doesn't think twice. Reborn with terrifying demonic power, Vex has one goal: hunt down the men who killed the boy she loved. Her quest plunges her into the city's supernatural underbelly; a hidden world of blood cults, predatory monster hunters, and forbidden magic.

Told as a raw, five-year letter to the boy she lost, Reflections Upon the Anniversary of My Descent chronicles Vex's fall into a life of blood and vengeance, where every answer comes at a brutal cost.

And where the boy she sold her soul to avenge may not have been as innocent as she believed.

Dive into the first book of the Cambion Chronicles, a complete, self-contained story set in Kell Shaw's Vestiges of Magic universe, with more to come.

  • Featuring: A young woman dealing with grief, rage, and obsession, exploring how she gives up her mortal life to serve a demon, and the ultimate cost.
  • Tropes: Revenge quest, reluctant mentor, deal with the devil, found family, shattered illusions.
  • Setting: Contemporary dark urban fantasy in a secondary world where magic vanished centuries ago. A city hiding monsters, and haunted by its own blood-soaked history.
  • POV: First person, snarky narrator with dark humor.
  • Heat Level: None (this is a post-mortem of a romance gone wrong).
  • Content Notes: Violence, supernatural horror, demons, ghosts, magic.
  • Ending: Standalone story; series threads continue in later books. (Book 2, The Demon's Peace, follows Thaena, Vex's older sister and mentor, and is set before the events of this book.)
