Welcome to Litsy!

Historical horror maven Alma Katsu turns her talents to the modern world for the first time, in this terrifying tale about an all-powerful family with an ancient evil under its thumb. Imagine if the Sackler family had a demon at their beck and call. The Berisha family runs one of the largest import-export companies in the world, and they�ve always been lucky. Their rivals suffer strokes. Inconvenient buildings catch on fire. Earthquakes swallow up manufacturing plants, destroying harmful evidence. Things always seem to work out for the Berishas. They�re blessed. At least that is what Zef, the patriarch, has always told his three children. And each of them knows their place in the family�Dardan, as the only male heir, must prepare to take over as keeper of the Berisha secrets, Maris�s most powerful contribution, much to her dismay, will be to marry strategically, and Nora�s job, as the youngest, is to just stay out of the way. But when things stop going as planned, and the family blessing starts looking more like a curse, the Berishas begin to splinter, each hatching their own secret scheme. They didn�t get to be one of the richest families in the world without spilling a little blood, but this time, it might be their own.
