Lili is a Mesopotamian siren, and life as an immortal being is hard enough as it is. She’s asexual (which is incredibly difficult to reconcile if your entire point as a mythical being is to seduce people to death). She’s also struggling with depression from being alive for so long.
Lili is an absolutely shoddy improv-detective trying to track down a serial killer so ruthless that it makes even her murderous soul uneasy. However, there’s something larger at work than just one serial killer. A small town is hiding an even deadlier, global-scale secret. Forget Area 51 conspiracies. This one beats them all. With magic.
So, what better way to spice up her eternal life than being hired as a vigilante detective to stop a serial killer? Anything, literally anything. She’d trade her left lung to get out of this. Or, perhaps, somebody else’s.

Thank you so much Sophie Whit for providing me with an eARC for review!

Listen – an asexual siren?? WHY HASN’T ANYONE DONE THAT BEFORE??? Or maybe they have and I just don’t pay attention. EITHER WAY. I love the concept so much. Also just books with sirens, because I don’t get enough of that. I love having main characters that are mythical beings!! There were a lot of elements of this book that I liked, but ultimately it fell a bit short. However, I do think there are lots of people who will love this!
