by Gail Z. Martin
Genre: Supernatural Mystery Adventure
A haunted tapestry. A cursed dynasty. Dark magic, and a supernatural creature with an insatiable hunger.
Cassidy Kincaide and the Deadly Curiosities crew get a call from a desperate real estate investor to un-haunt a mansion that has belonged to a family of dark witches for generations. Inside, a hidden chamber reveals a legacy of supernatural power, a dangerous tapestry woven with malicious magic and defiant ghosts that refuse to accept the house's new ownership. When the dust settles, the family's witch and the djinn that has influenced the dynasty's fortunes for more than a century are missing—and bent on vengeance.
A mysterious pop-up gallery sells magical tapestries to Charleston's art collectors, but good luck quickly turns bad as the woven pieces permit the djinn to drain and kill the owners. Meanwhile, Cassidy's best friend, Teag Logan, and his fiancé, Anthony Benton, finalize plans for their wedding, dodging mama drama and supernatural setbacks.
When Cassidy and her allies go after the witch and the djinn, they find themselves targeted by magic that can bend perception and reshape reality. The psychic pain caused by the cursed tapestries fuels the power of the djinn and the dark witch, setting up a showdown with the Alliance for the soul of Charleston.
Can they stop the witch, defeat the djinn, destroy the tapestries, and still make it to the wedding on time?
