Creed's Grave (Creed-Hart Crime Thrillers Book 1)

Detective Lila Hart's only witness just crawled out of his grave.
When Detective Lila Hart responds to a ritualistic murder in New Orleans' most feared cemetery, she expects forensic evidence—not a witness emerging from a tomb in an expensive suit.

Talon Creed lives beneath the graveyard, speaks like he's from another century, and treats police authority as a suggestion. He's witnessed identical murders spanning decades across different cities, and he has surveillance footage to prove it. But his help comes with conditions that will force Hart to betray everything she's sworn to uphold.

With 72 hours before political pressure destroys her career, Hart faces an impossible trust a man who commands attack dogs and sleeps among the dead, or let a killer perfect his ancient art while her city burns.

In New Orleans, some partnerships follow you straight to the grave. And Detective Lila Hart is about to discover that working with the dead means joining them in the shadows—where survival depends on embracing the darkness.

CREED's GRAVE is the explosive first novel in the Creed-Hart Crime Thriller Series, where every case leads deeper into the supernatural underworld of New Orleans.

If you like Louise Penny's Inspector Gamache series, Deborah Harkness's All Souls trilogy, or Neil Gaiman's urban fantasy, then Creed's Grave will keep you reading past midnight.
