Synopsis: In the criminal networks of Los Angeles, the name Casey Esorom is spoken only in whispers. Haunted by the memory of his long dead wife, consumed by a hatred of existence and an obsession with death, Casey is a man of ruthless, single-minded efficiency.
In the forests of the Higher World, having journeyed for three years, purple-eyed Jezebel Jean finally draws near the mystical realm of Faerie. A stranger warns her of a darkness that intends to keep her from her destination—a darkness that reigns from outside space and time.
And what Casey Esorom’s eyes are opened to as he is possessed by this darkness will compel him north to the small town of Lamplight, setting him on a collision course with Jezebel Jean, and with mysteries that lie beyond life and death.

My Review: The first thing I have to say about this book IS THAT COVER OMG! The story is one that sounded familiar just a little to others with the fey and hearts being taken. It was a little bit of fiction and a little bit of fantasy and I have to say that it was pretty good. I liked the characters and the story and I hope we get another one from this world. I do think that it could have been a little longer but you can't get everything. If you are looking for something with pretty much a little bit of everything then check this one out.
“[Lakin] is a great young visionary writer in a time when we need this kind of fiction the most.” - Espen Aukan (screenwriter/playwright, Ibsen Award Nominee)
“As the story unfolds, you’ll be transported to another realm; another world. With each new discovery, a new appreciation for the complexity of Lakin’s style of writing is revealed. Each layer that is peeled away brings a better understanding of the core of the story.” - Authors Reading
“[Lakin is] an author capable of great imagination and inspiration…” - Nolan Kenmonth, Rogue Valley Messenger
