Mortal Remains

Erica Morgan has yet to fully realize what she's capable of, but when her abusive husband holds a knife to her throat and threatens to kill her, she knows right away she's not above hiring a hitman. Seeking one out, she discovers that-in fear of his employer-the underworld won't touch him. She'll have to bloody her own knuckles to survive, but her loss of innocence will cost her dearly. Out of death will arise a covetous evil. If she can harness its wrath, she might achieve something more valuable than freedom. If she fails, the price will be her soul.
