"Renaissance Raines is now a psychopomp, one of the guides who lead the souls of the recently departed through the Seven Gates of the Underworld. When a young boy named Ramses St. Cyr manages to escape his foretold death, Renai finds herself at the center of a deity-thick plot unfolding in New Orleans. Someone helped Ramses slip free of his destined end-- someone willing to risk everything to steal a little slice of power for themselves. Is it one of the storm gods that's descended on the city? The death god who's locked the Gates of the Underworld? Or the manipulative sorcerer who also cheated Death? There are scarier things than death in the Crescent City... and Renaissance Raines is one of them."--Provided by publisher.
