Killing Dead Things: A Dead Things Novel

by Ryan M. Williams

It doesn't get easier waking dead things.

Four years ago, Ravyn hoped the nightmare had ended. She tried putting her life together after college. But the Inquisition returns to test her again.

They trained her, a witch, instead of the usual burning—chemical and surgical methods designed to strip a person of their abilities. The lucky ones could function after the process. A witch working in the Inquisition was unheard of, and it didn't last. Political forces expelled her from the ranks of inquisitors.

Lockwood hasn't given up on Ravyn and returns. He wants her help with a secret treaty with witches and a possible new future for her. The answers—and secrets—lie in the isolated Oregon coast town of Bramson Bay.

There's a war within the Inquisition and Ravyn is right at its heart.
