Urban fantasy author Hillary Jacques spins a mesmerizing tale of investigation and gods for the Carniepunk anthologyβa collection of darkly supernatural short stories you wonβt be able to put down!
Olivia Locke, formerly the Greek titan Mnemosyne, has built a nice little life for herself. Sheβs bound her ancient powers, has a steady job performing inspections for an insurance company, and even goes to the dentist. But when Olivia is sent to a traveling carnival, she discovers that the claims sheβs reviewing arenβt accidents at all but rather symptoms of a depraved bargain struck to keep the operation afloat. And, at the heart of the carnival is a force intent on capturing her very soul. If thereβs one thing that will make a retired goddess fight back, itβs the threat of imprisonment. Been there. Got the metaphorical T-shirt. Not going back.
