*WINNER—2023 Indies Today Award (Urban Fantasy)**HONORABLE MENTION—2024 Indie Author Project (Sci-Fi/Fantasy)*“She’s not a killer. She’s an accident waiting to happen.”My name is Adina Venture, and I am a Deathwalker. The only Deathwalker, as far as I know. I lurk in the shadows of Las Vegas like a ghost, hunting down bad people at the behest of unknown clients. If I decide they’re “worthy,” I dispatch them via poetically bizarre accidents. It’s a messy gig, but the pay is decent, and I’m very good at it. Sure, I’m estranged from my family, and my only friends are my “crow-conspirator” Shiva and a late-night DJ I’ve never met in person. But what can I do? There are some people out there that just need killing—and like I said, I’m very good at it.Of course, being a ghost assassin has its downsides. For example, when the magical oversight organization known as the Order accuses me of taking out one of their star employees, my alibi isn’t something I can put on the official record for more reasons than one. At least they’re giving me a chance to prove my innocence, though there is a catch—I must remain magically bound to one of their Inquisitors until I’m cleared. Their Chief Inquisitor, to be more exact.Before you ask—yes, I guess he’s what you might call “good-looking.” Tall, blond, British, the whole nine. But he also seems pretty damn sure that I’m guilty, and if I can’t convince him otherwise, he’ll verify it by digging into my mind and ripping out my memories one by one. Between that and his loyalty to the Order, I doubt my feminine wiles will work on him. Assuming I had any, of course.But what begins as an effort to exonerate me (or arrest me, depending on who you ask) ends up uncovering a plot much more sinister than a simple murder. If my unlikely partner and I don’t find the true culprit soon, we could see the rise of a monster far deadlier than both of us combined. Not to mention that the longer we stay bonded, the tighter and more intimate the connection between us seems to grow…Death by Miss Adventure is the darkly humorous first book in the Death by Miss Adventure supernatural suspense series. If you like noirish mysteries with quirky characters and a smoldering enemies-to-lovers dynamic with a dash of spice, then you’ll love S.G. Tasz’s award-winning novel.
