The Evelyn Wight Archives #3
The Dead Witch
Book 3 in The Evelyn Wight ArchivesA cursed thief. A dying body. A city devouring itself from the inside out.
Evelyn Wight never thought she’d willingly return to the Dark City—but the strange curse eating away at her body leaves her no choice. With a freshly-stocked witch's kit, several reluctant allies (both old and new), and a grim determination to survive, she descends into the shadowed zones in search of a cure.
But something far worse has taken root in the city’s bones.
A deadly plague is spreading zone by zone—claiming lives, then reanimating them into something… wrong. The magical community is crumbling, factions are turning on each other, and the sickness is rapidly expanding. For Evelyn, the clock is no longer ticking. It’s counting down.
