When a family curse threatens David's life, he will turn to the only person he's ever trusted, his ex-boyfriend, Rhys-which means he will have to open his heart to Moira, Rhys's wife. The day David Aristarkhov's occultist father died, he bought himself an Audi, drank every drop of liquor in the house, and abandoned his life as a teen psychic prodigy. Now pushing thirty, David is a Boston attorney, moonlighting as a medium for a secret society. But when the Devil comes to collect on a deal David's ancestor made, he reluctantly reaches out to his ex-boyfriend Rhys for help. However, to get to Rhys, David will have to befriend Moira, Rhys's wife. The trio gets a little too close for comfort as they combine their powers to unravel the century-old curse, and if they don't break the curse by David's thirtieth birthday, he won't live long enough for everyone to figure out their feelings for each other.
"With characters as vibrant as the story is twisted, Evocation is the start of a bold new saga—daring, pulpy, and delicious."
– K. M. Enright, author of Mistress of Lies
“A story as intimate as it is decadent, A delightful romp through occult society, grounded by all-too-human characters, the power of love is a real and vibrant force in this story and its effects are profound. Sincerity is scary and Gibson aims to thrill."
– Elizabeth Kilcoyne, Morris Award finalist for Wake the Bones
"Gibson has crafted a meditation on abuse, grief, and the shadows of past lives which delves into the liminal space between what we desire and what we deserve, and interrogates the trust between those who have hurt each other more deeply than can ever be erased—all as it offers characters who will be indelibly inked on your memory, bound together by secrets and bargains stronger than death itself."
—Laura R. Samotin, author of The Sins On Their Bones
"Dazzling and compelling from start to finish, S.T. Gibson’s Evocation crackles with magic and the strong chemistry between its three leads."
– Morgan Dante, author of A Flame in the Night
"Romantic and delectable, Evocation is an entrancing start to a new series by S. T. Gibson. If anyone can make you root for three intricately crafted characters, it is Gibson. David, Rhys and Moria have ensnared me, I will be making a deal with the devil, just to get book two in my hands."
- Ben Alderson, author of Lord of Eternal Night
"Gibson pairs the old-world elegance of a secret occult society with the glitz and glamor of modern urban magic to create a dazzling world."
