'Dhonielle Clayton is that rare gem of an author – one who is as savvy as she is talented'
– V. E. Schwab, bestselling author of The Invisible Life of Addie LaRue
In this spellbinding romantic fantasy set in a decadent New Orleans, one woman must fight to reclaim her magical birthright while resisting the pull of a forbidden love. Conjure the Bones is the adult debut from New York Times and #1 indie bestselling author Dhonielle Clayton.
Collette Marchand never wanted to return to the Immortal Wards of New Orleans. But now, her mother, Lady Red, the living Conjure Saint and matriarch of the notorious Conjure House, has died for the final time.
Téo Baptiste is working at the same hospital where ten years ago he lost everything – his sobriety and the love of his life, Collette. Nights at the ER help him bury his feelings and ignore his destiny to take over the undead Shadow Immortal Ward. But Lady Red’s death might be his chance to make things right with Collette again.
Collette uncovers that her mother’s true source of power is a stolen card from the Deck of Life, a card she now inherits. Determined to rewrite the past, Collette will need help from the very man who shattered her heart . . .
