Goodreads Synopsis:

Ava can start fires with her mind . . . but is it a blessing or a curse?

Ava is a firebug—she can start fires with her mind. Which would all be well and good if she weren't caught in a deadly contract with the Coterie, a magical mafia. She's one of their main hit men . . . and she doesn't like it one bit. Not least because her mother's death was ordered by Venus—who is now her boss.

When Venus asks Ava to kill a family friend, Ava rebels. She knows very well that you can't say no to the Coterie and expect to get away with it, though, so she and her friends hit the road, trying desperately to think of a way out of the mess they find themselves in. Preferably keeping the murder to a minimum.

Why?:

I have read and loved McBride’s Necromancer series. Her unique bunch of characters and creatures and her humor is awesome. I love everything about it, and have been super excited for this to finally come out, and I hadn’t even realized the release date was so close. I will pretty much read anything she releases. I can’t wait to get my hands on this book, and am sure that I am going to just devour it.

What are you looking forward to reading?
