Myths, magic, and... Marilyn?

When shy librarian Kacey Wiltson discovers a crimson diary humming with otherworldly energy, her quiet life is turned upside down. The journal once belonged to legendary women of history, each leaving behind secrets and confessions about its strange power.

This diary is no mere relic. The Mágos, guardians of ancient magic who now live among the people, know it carries a prophecy that could tip the balance of power. And its ruthless creator, Sibyl, will stop at nothing to reclaim it. From the glittering boulevards of Los Angeles to the storm-lashed coast of Wales, Kacey must navigate a world where gods walk among mortals and every choice could cost her the people she loves.

With intriguing suspense, bewitching characters, and a unique conception of myths and magic in the modern world, The Crimson Diary is a spellbinding contemporary fantasy thriller about the cost of magic and fame and about the redemptive power of love. Fans of Deborah Harkness, Evie Woods, and Madeline Miller will love this myth-twisting modern tale.

"The Crimson Diary is a well-written fantasy where magic, mythology, and strong women from history are woven into a story that keeps readers in suspense page after page." Erin Ulerich, author

"I've never read a story like this before. Absolutely pulled me in and had me intrigued. Amazing story telling! I won't ever look at Cleopatra, Guinevere and Marilyn Monroe the same way again." Amber Brown, narrator of Cry of Crows
