A Plunder of Souls

With Boston in the throes of a sweltering summer, and an outbreak of small pox plunging the city into panic, Ethan Kaille, thieftaker and conjurer, seeks to scratch out a living and keep safe those he loves. But British soldiers patrol the lanes, and Sephira Pryce, his beautiful, dangerous rival in thieftaking, dogs his every move.

Now the city is beset by a series of grave desecrations; someone has disturbed the souls of Boston's dead for ill purpose. More, these are not simple robberies, but are the work of a powerful conjurer, a vengeful, twisted enemy from Ethan's past, who is mutilating corpses, gathering an army of wraiths, and directing his spells and scheming at Ethan himself.

More in need of his conjuring talents than ever before, Ethan finds himself unable to cast, or fight, or defend himself. With every new death in a city at the mercy of a mortal disease, Ethan's foe grows more powerful and adds to his legion of ghosts.

And if Ethan cannot find a way to defeat him, every man and woman in Boston will be at the villain's mercy.

"Brilliant characters in a brilliant book."

-The Huffington Post

"Jackson is an increasingly reliable tour guide to America's colonial past."

-Publisher's Weekly on A Plunder of Souls

"The author hits it out of the park with the brilliant A Plunder of Souls, for both its premise and its execution. This terrific series should appeal to readers of urban fantasy, traditional fantasy, and those historical fiction fans who do not mind a bit of the speculative thrown in. 5 stars out of 5."
