Lasher, a spirit conjured in seventeenth-century Scotland by the first ‘witch’, has returned. Once a curse to his creator and her descendants, Lasher is back and ready to bring chaos to the Mayfair family.

Meanwhile, Rowan has disappeared. As the new queen of the coven, Rowan must stay on the

Anne Rice was born and raised in New Orleans, Louisiana, which provided the backdrop for many of her famous novels. She was the author of more than 30 books, including her first novel, Interview with the Vampire, which was published in 1976. It has since gone on to become one of the best-selling novels of all time, and was adapted into a major motion picture starring Brad Pitt, Tom Cruise, Kirsten Dunst, and Antonio Banderas. In addition to The Vampire Chronicles, Anne was the author of several other best-selling supernatural series including Mayfair Witches, Queen of the Damned, the Wolf Gift, and Ramses the Damned. She passed away in 2021.
