⭐ THE INSTANT SUNDAY TIMES BESTSELLER ⭐

Life is a battlefield.

'Paranormal lovers rejoice, your new obsession has arrived!' HANNAH WHITTEN

Jocasta has carved out a normal life at Beecher University - well, as normal it can be when your name is Jocasta and you are the only child of Death.

Jo has a good job, great friends, and is trying to get over a secret fling with an unbelievably attractive (and unbelievably unavailable) grad student. But she's also lonely.

No one close to her knows the truth about who - or what - she is. Or that she must feed to survive, and she feeds on them - their disappointments, failures, and rejections. It's not a perfect system, but it works. Just.

Until a handsome stranger - and descendant of Lust - shows up on campus and announces that Death has formally named Jo as his successor. Now she's both a powerful ally and a massive threat, and everyone she loves is a target.

But Beecher is the one place that has ever felt like home, and Jo will do anything to protect it. Even if it means becoming the very thing she hates . . .
