Terry J. Benton-Walker's contemporary fantasy debut, Blood Debts, is "an extravaganza from start to finish" (Chloe Gong) with powerful magical families, intergenerational curses, and deadly drama in New Orleans.

'An extravaganza'
Chloe Gong

'Riveting. Unflinching. Powerful'
Ayana Gray

'Sings with hope and barely disguised rage'
TJ Klune

Gods meddle, and magic will betray you, but this time justice will reign.

Thirty years ago, a young woman was murdered, a family was lynched, and New Orleans saw the greatest magical massacre in its history.

On the anniversary of these brutal events, Clement and Cristina Trudeau - the sixteen-year-old twin heirs to the dethroned family - are mourning their father and caring for their sick mother. Until they discover their mother isn't sick - she's been cursed.

Now the twins must trust in each other and their family's magic to uncover the truth. And if they don't succeed... history may repeat itself.
