Direct Descendant - Hardcover
by Tanya Huff (Author)
This cozy horror novel set in modern-day Toronto includes phenomenal characters, fantastic writing, and a queer romance--the perfect balance of dark and delightful
This stand-alone novel from the bestselling author of the Peacekeeper novels mixes the creepy with the charming for plenty of snarky, queer fun--for fans of T. Kingfisher, Grady Hendrix, Sangu Mandanna and Erin Sterling Generations ago, the founders of the idyllic town of Lake Argen made a deal with a dark force. In exchange for their service, the town will stay prosperous and successful, and keep outsiders out. And for generations, it's worked out great. Until a visitor goes missing, and his wealthy family sends a private investigator to find him, and everything abruptly goes sideways. Now, Cassidy Prewitt, town baker and part-time servant of the dark force (it's a family business) has to contend with a rising army of darkness, a very frustrated town, and a very cute PI who she might just be falling for...and who might just be falling for her. And if they can survive their own home-grown apocalypse, they might even just find happiness together. Queer, cozy, and with a touch of eldritch horror mixed in just for fun, this is a charming love story about a small-town baker, a quick-witted PI, and, yes, an ancient evil.Tanya Huff shares an idyllic rural existence with her partner Fiona Patton, six cats, and a chihuahua. She acquired a degree in Radio and Television Arts from Ryerson Polytechnic--an education she was happy to finally use while writing her Smoke novels. Of her previous twenty-three books, those featuring Henry Fitzroy, bastard son of Henry VIII, romance writer, and vampire are among the most popular.
