Description

Secret Societies want her dead. The Vatican wants her skills. Death Gods want her soul. All Kana wants is a cold glass of rum...
When Kana Cold, a paranormal investigator, is approached by The Vatican with a case, she has no idea the danger and adventure that awaits her.

A possessed man has invaded the Vatican Archives with one of the fabled Black Grimoires, ancient books of black magic written by demons from another dimension. Kana's former mentor was the foremost expert on the subject, but with him dead, she is the best hope to find the other two books.

Secret societies, death gods, and ancient spirits all want Kana dead or to use her skills for their own gain. With the help of an Italian archeologist and playboy, Kana must find a way to keep the Black Grimoires from unleashing hell on Earth and emerge as the hero. Can she outwit those who seek to destroy her and save the world from ultimate destruction?

Find out in this exciting and perilous journey.

A Word From The Author To Readers

Q: What makes the Kana Cold series so special?
A: I love weird stories, it's why I have a Facebook group called The Wonderfully Weird. Urban Fantasy is full of so many great stories and characters, but I wanted to write something that went beyond wizards, zombies, and vampires or Greek and Roman mythology. There are thousands of strange myths, old and new, that haven't been explored that can be made into great stories. The Reaping of the Black Grimoires is based on the very real grimoires written by former Popes and are rumored to be locked away in the Vatican Archives. There are African and Scandinavian mythologies I want to dig into as well. And of course, since Kana is of Japanese heritage, the treasure trove of Japanese legends and Eastern philosophy will be explored in a narrative form.

Kana's heritage is also important. We've heard so much about how underrepresented Asians are in Western pop culture, even when the stories are based on popular Asian properties (Death Note, Ghost in the Shell to name a few). I decided to flip it: Kana's in a world where her contemporaries look and act like the typical heroes of the stories - buxom blondes and suave, muscular leading men - and she struggles with measuring herself against these people despite how good she is. That's a theme throughout the series.

Q: What Are The Main Influences For This Series?

A: There are quite a few:

• The globe-trotting and treasure hunting of Indiana Jones

• The attitude and spunk of Marvel's Jessica Jones

• Clive Barker's scary-yet-beautiful way of creating worlds and monsters

• Creepypastas and lesser-known urban legends that are beyond bizarre

• Asian Myths & Legends

• Young Adult Science Fiction and Fantasy
