Canebrulay

Some towns are forgotten. Some are better left that way.

Snyder Soderbergh makes his living as a spiritual exterminator, banishing ghosts and curses for a fee. But when a trail of gruesome, inexplicable deaths leads him deep into the Louisiana bayou, he's chasing a nightmare that no one is paying him to find. The electric tingle at the base of his skull screams of something ancient and hungry, something that has been waiting in a forgotten corner of the map called Canebrulay.

He is not alone in being drawn there. A trio of ruthless killers follows a vision of a glowing, otherworldly knife. An immortal warrior woman walks through centuries, answering a call to a battle she may not survive. And a man possessed by a wolf-demon fights a losing battle for his own soul.

They are all converging on a single, terrifying truth: the legends are real. The mother of all cursed creatures, the queen of shadow magic herself-Mother Soucouyant-is stirring from her long slumber. And Canebrulay, a town where time has folded in on itself and the dead do not stay buried, is about to become the stage for a confrontation between the damned and the thing they all fear.

Welcome to Canebrulay. Pray you find your way out.
