Publisher's Synopsis
Fleeing a grisly battlefield, Zhuulton and Morningstar end up in the backwater city of Ravensfen, where spooky things are happening. A plague of suicide has gripped the land, and the only person with a smile on his face is the undertaker. People are hanging themselves, jumping off cliffs, even roasting themselves alive inside giant novelty ovens. An eerie presence seems to be driving the deaths. Ravens cluster on rooftops, the sound of creepy piping infects people's dreams, and many are the whispers of a deathly Kingdom where sorrow and pain will be forgotten forever.
To escape all this maudlin bollocks, Zhuulton embarks on a spree of juvenile mischief with a handsome young lad. And yet, wherever she goes, the darkness seems to follow. For in the cursed land of Ravensfen, all roads lead to the Kingdom of the dead, where the Raven Prince rules... Praise for B.J.
