#1 New York Times bestselling author Charlaine Harris returns with the second of the “gripping, twisty-turny” (Karin Slaughter, New York Times bestselling author) Gunnie Rose series, in which Lizbeth is hired to transport a crate into Dixie, the self-exiled southeast territory of the former United States. What the crate contains is something so powerful, that forces from across three territories want to possess it.
In this second “immersive, involving, suspenseful, and intriguing” (Lee Child, #1 internationally bestselling author of the Jack Reacher series) installment of the Gunnie Rose series, Lizbeth Rose is hired onto a new crew for a seemingly easy protection job—transporting a crate into Dixie, just about the last part of the former United States of America she wants to visit. But what seemed like a straight-forward assignment turns into a massacre as the crate is stolen. Up against a wall in Dixie, where social norms have stepped back into the last century, Lizbeth has to go undercover with an old friend to retrieve the crate as what’s inside can spark a rebellion.
#1 New York Times bestselling author Charlaine Harris (Sookie Stackhouse mysteries and Midnight, Texas trilogy) is at her “alluringly gritty” (Time) best here, crafting an alternate history of the United States, where magic is an acknowledged but despised power.
