The kings and queens of France are back?and they're a royal pain in the ass.

GoPol has fallen, Gaspar has returned to me, and the existence of ghosts has become public knowledge. While the rest of the world scrambles to understand the dead, I'm just trying to live in peace?but sharing a home with Sébastien, now leading GoPol's reformation, and Gaspar, who's drowning in guilt, is easier said than done. Three's a crowd, and my peace has been hard-bought.

And now, the Chevalier d'Os has come to collect. In exchange for his help in bringing down GoPol, I promised to aid his reanimation project. That's how I find myself in the crypts of St. Denis, bargaining with the long-dead kings and queens of France?who, surprise, have egos as big as their tombs and ludicrous demands that could get me killed.

It all comes to a head at the Royal Ball. While I still chase the monarchs' favour, sinister plans unfold in the shadows. It's five to midnight, and I'll have to decide how much I'm willing to sacrifice to stop a game of thrones I never signed up to play?or risk meeting the guillotine.

Urban Fantasy with a French twist. If you like cave-crawling adventures, hopeless romantics, and ghosts, you'll enjoy Ghosts of the Monarchy, the 7th book of the Parisian Ghosts series. Travel to Paris today to attend the Royal Ball.
