When Seattle illustrator Nadine receives the call she always feared- her uncle Barry is dead, and he’s left her everything- she tells herself she’s only going back to Louisiana to settle an estate.
She’s lying to herself.
For twenty years, Barry fed her bedtime stories about a monster house on a cursed hill. About children who vanished under new moons. About something ancient and hungry living inside the crumbling walls of Belle Ombre plantation. Nadine drew those monsters. She thought she understood them.
She had no idea.
Belle Ombre doesn’t just have a history. It has a hunger. Beneath the Spanish moss and bayou fog lies a century-old bargain sealed in blood- a voodoo curse born from the unspeakable sins of the Beauregard family, kept alive by a town too terrified to speak and too complicit to stop. The monsters Nadine sketched as a child are real. They are waiting. And they have always known her name.
Now Nadine must unravel the truth her uncle died trying to protect her from- before Belle Ombre collects what it believes it’s owed.
Belle Ombre is a pulse-pounding supernatural horror novel weaving voodoo folklore, body horror, and the haunting legacy of slavery into one unforgettable nightmare.
