Book Overview

Blending crime fiction and dark academia, The Violently Departed is a fast paced fantasy novel perfect for fans of An Academy for Liars by Alexis Henderson.

A missing nun found murdered, a school built on secrets, a haunted town. A new case for Hero Viridian: half-demon, disgraced ex-nun-turned-investigator.

With the stink of demonic involvement surrounding the murder, who better to deal with it than a woman with something to prove, eyes of literal flame and a direct connection to hell?

However, when those who sought her help turn against her, a vulnerable Hero must rely on an unlikely partner, Oleander Keen - a Demonhunter who has already tried to kill her.

"With charming wit and masterful craft, Sarah J. Daley presents your new favorite half-demon detective Hero Viridian, a uniquely complex and ferocious character I'd follow to Hell and back. Atmospheric prose, seamless worldbuilding, and clever, buddy-cop hijinks make The Violently Departed a fast-paced fun and darkly delightful read."
