The House of Five Gates
In a New York City where mythic gods are worshiped and ancient traditions are honored, Maren Nykara is the chief embalmer at one of the city's premier mortuary houses - and she is having a very bad Monday. A corpse in her care has been desecrated, she’s just learned death magic is real, and her ex-girlfriend has suddenly reappeared on her front stoop. Chasing answers in the aftermath, she finds herself thrown into a world of necromantic family drama with a side of possible murder - all because someone burned a body under her mortuary house's roof.
Determined to solve the fiery mystery, she ends up risking her friendships, job, and even her own self in pursuit of ridding her mortuary house of whatever evil is lurking just below the surface. With time ticking down worryingly fast on her own mortality she finds herself dealing with tangled family webs, what lies beyond death, and the difficulty of getting back with your ex.
