博客來In the heart of 1920s New Orleans, where jazz melodies swirl through moonlit streets and secrets linger in every shadow, Andrew and Korlue have crafted a haven. The Andr, once known as Raesh, with a turbulent past, and his lightning elemental mate have opened a cozy bookstore in the French Quarter, striving to leave behind lives marked by danger and sorrow.
Their fragile peace is shattered when they meet Nideya, a young oracle whose haunting paintings foretell a chilling prophecy. One canvas reveals a figure from Andrew’s days as a pirate-a man of unspeakable cruelty, long thought dead, who now resurfaces with a sinister purpose. Before Andrew can act, this specter from his past abducts Korlue, thrusting Andrew into a desperate race against time.
As memories of torment threaten to consume him, Raesh must confront his darkest fears to save the man he loves and protect the life they have built. But in a city teeming with shadowy forces and whispered secrets, will his courage and love be enough to overcome the specter of his past-or will everything he holds dear be lost forever?
