Skeleton Key: An Urban Fantasy Thriller
About this ebook
Armies in the streets. Allies disintegrating at the wave of a hand. An old enemy is making a play for New York—and they’ve found a loophole in the laws of the universe. One that gives them access to a source of power none of the other gods can use… or stand against.
But one person can. Bastian Reid—the magic-wielding demigod and mastermind behind Humanity Ascendant’s plan to defeat the gods. Oh, and he happens to be Mal’s ex.
But his help carries a steep price. If he and Humanity Ascendant succeed, they’ll have the power to defeat the gods. And without the gods to keep them in check, their magic will plunge the human world into a blood-drenched struggle for power that makes the wars between the gods look tame.
Mal isn't just fighting for Hades anymore. She's fighting for the future of humanity.

About the author
Zoe Cannon may or may not be a supervillain out to conquer the world through writing. When not writing, she can be found perfecting her schemes for world domination, plotting against her archenemies, and staying up too late reading a book. Her secret lair is rumored to be located somewhere in southern New Hampshire. She also writes as her mild-mannered alter ego, Z.J. Cannon.
Cruelty, selfishness, greed… this world is full of darkness. But light still exists, caged but undimmed, an unquenchable spark at the core of the human heart. And that spark is worth fighting for.
Some people are still willing to fight. Bloodied and broken, they rise undaunted from every defeat to fight for justice and compassion in a world that has none. But before they can drive back the world’s darkness, they’ll need to confront the darkness in their own souls.
These are the heroes at the heart of Z.J. Cannon’s work, which blends page-turning suspense with high-stakes drama to create stories about flawed and often deeply damaged people fighting against overwhelming odds to do what’s right.
