THE AGENTS OF KARMA SERIES
by Kelly L. Marsh
Kill Karma
(Agents of Karma #1)
When Pepper turned seventeen, she expected to graduate early, be released from probation, and maybe even have a party. So, dodging assassins and fighting vampires while trekking through the pits of Hell was never part of the plan. But we’ve got to play the hand we’re dealt, right?
Pepper Li Bell has a high aptitude and talent that, in the past, she used exclusively to get into trouble. Despite the terms of her probation, she decided to use that knowledge and prowess to become an entrepreneur of sorts, beginning a karma-for-hire business. Pepper can’t stand to see karma go unserved, so when oppressors dodge justice, she’s ready to uncover their dirty little secrets—for a fee, of course. But on her latest job, Pepper uncovers a conspiracy pitting demons against Karma, the goddess of Vengeance and Justice. Demons await orders set for doomsday—All Hallows’ Eve—when they’ll be unleashed from Hell, turning the forces of darkness loose and declaring war on Earth.
After unearthing secrets from her past, Pepper realizes she just might hold the key to bringing the demonic regime to its knees and saving everyone she knows and loves. The fate of Karma, every magical being, and all of humanity rest on her young shoulders…but can she rise to the challenge in time?
Measures of Vengeance
(Agents of Karma #2)
Save your loved ones or the world—what would you choose? Escape into the undeniably explosive sequel to the award-winning Kill Karma in the Agents of Karma series.
With Armageddon on the brink, Pepper’s father still hostage, and goddess Karma severely weakened, the Syndicate, led by original vampire Vlad Dracula, has moved on to the next phase of their plans. Even so, Pepper Li Bell is determined to rescue her father from the Syndicate’s stronghold. But her plans are thwarted when a centuries-old prophecy is revealed that cautions of impending doom centered on the upcoming lunar eclipse and the last surviving Agent of Karma. Pepper and her allies must find the Agent before the Syndicate does.
As Vlad and his army of vampires and soul-sellers scour Earth and Hell for the Agent and Pepper, they force Pepper to run for her life, pushing her further from her father. With so many enemies closing in and nowhere left to hide, the weight of the world crashes on Pepper’s shoulders. When she thinks she may crumble beneath the pressure, Pepper discovers Vlad’s true intentions, including those reserved for her father and all of humanity. In the eleventh hour, Pepper must choose between rescuing those she loves and saving the world. But she might unearth something far more sinister.
Unfathomable power derives bone-chilling rewards.
