From debut author Mina Ikemoto Ghosh comes a stunningly illustrated, high-fantasy debut novel. Meet the Hakai Family Hellmakers: Purveyors of artisan hells and unlucky days to inflict on your enemies. They'll make it personal... for a price!
Hyo Hakai is a hellmaker: a creator of artisan hells and unlucky days to inflict upon your worst enemies.
When a demon destroys her village, she and her brother flee to Onogoro -- an island where the gods of Hyo's land live among humans. The hellmakers' hereditary curse, however, won't allow Hyo to settle in quietly.
Hyo is curse-bound to investigate the deaths that come her way and find commissioners to avenge them. As she's pulled deeper into a tangled web of fateful links and dark secrets, Hyo must navigate the intricate rules of Onogoro's gods without becoming their pawn. She'll quickly realize that murderers and gods have one thing in common -- they always think they can get away with it...
At least, that was before Hyo arrived.
In this breathtaking debut, author and illustrator Mina Ikemoto Ghosh weaves action, fantasy, and myth into an unforgettable illustrated YA murder-mystery novel.
