About this book

“A soothsayer and a witch walk into a voodoo shop with a ghost probelm” might sound like an opening line to a great joke, but dealing with a murderous ghost is only fun in fantasy games, not real life. Kathryn and Cole find themselves having to deal with such a poltergeist just days after meeting. Little did they know, that a ghost would just be the start to their problems.

Kathryn

Go to work, save money, and keep her head down at home. She couldn’t believe she gave up exploring more of her witchy powers for a man. No, not a man, a walking red flag. For now, she’ll stay the course, make a plan to safely get out of this toxic relationship, and avoid distractions. That is until it’s time to host a little table top role play game. Easy peasy, or so she thought. She never expected her best friend to bring a new player into the mix.

Cole

Repressing the gifts given to you by the gods is never a good idea; especially when you take human medication to suppress them. The gods will have their pound of flesh one way or another. Cole finds his foresight bursting through the medically induced brain fog, and someone ends up on the wrong end of his knife. He finds himself rushing back home, to New Orleans, to live with his grandma. Now he’s dealing with trying to master his foresight while learning about vampires, demons, gods, and alligator shifters. Not to mention the pretty little witchling who likes to lie about her dice rolls.

Amazing

This was such an amazing story. It was a very quick read that pulled you in and kept you interested from the very beginning. The instant chemistry between Kat and Cole was undeniable. As someone who has limited DND knowledge, I was worried that I would be lost, but it was quickly made clear that it wasn't necessary in order to enjoy the story. There was a nice balance of playful banter and mystery involved.This is the perfect story for anyone who loves the paranormal and a good mystery with a...

I’ve already read the first three scavenger books and I was so happy that some of the characters were in this one. New creatures are introduced as well as love matches. It’s a must read. )

This book was better than I expected. I thought it would be a nerdy D&D campaign but turned out to be more supernatural with an American Gods kind of feel. This story spoke to my witchy heart. )

Super unique and captivating story that incorporates DND. I have never read anything like this before with the incorporation of having characters roll dice in the story. It really added a whole new layer to the unknown. The world this takes place in has so many different types of creature such as soothsayers, witches, demons, and more. You really never knew what you could encounter next. The plot kept me guessing and there were so many unique surprises I didn't see coming. I loved the...
