In Fairhaven, there’s no rest for the wicked, the weary, or anyone in between. This time, the Wild Hunt is on its way to town, commanded by its ruthless leader who has a score to settle with Lorelei’s friend, the Night Mallt. Meanwhile, the Castle has opened its doors as a sanctuary for an unexpected and unwelcome visitor, which puts a damper on Lorelei’s budding relationship with resident demon prince of hell, Kane Sullivan. Even worse, the houseguest brings another hunting party to town, one that Lorelei has been careful to avoid. As the threats escalate and secrets are revealed, Lorelei must come to terms with a moment of truth she never anticipated—if she can survive the hunt. Play Dead is the sixth book in the Crossroads Queen series.
