Calamities

In Calamities, Mourning Mayne is the reluctant heir to one of the world’s most influential families, a dynasty built on wealth, power and generations of exploitation. He has never been comfortable with what the Maynes represent, but the truth is darker than he ever admitted, because his family are fiends, half-human, half-demon, with magic tied to the buying and selling of human souls. When Mourning’s estranged father, Hadrian Mayne, summons him back into the family fold, Mourning is forced to choose between accepting the legacy waiting for him or trying to break away and shape something different. On the journey home he crosses paths with Key, a black-market dealer in souls, and Quinn, an artist who may hold the key to what the fiends really are, and what their future could become.
