There’s nothing like a ghost visiting you while you’re waiting in line at the grocery store. Unfortunately for Lizzie, that isn’t the only supernatural visit she’ll receive…When an angry ghost named Angelo threatens Lizzie and sets her house on fire, she knows the time has come for her to step fully into her role as destroyer of evil supernatural creatures. But things turn out to be much … things turn out to be much trickier than expected: the amulet doesn’t function as she thought it would and fire vampires with unknown motives have set up camp in a nearby canyon.
Not only that, but the effigy that is distracting hounds from devouring her is still on the loose, and its shade owners want it back. They hand her an ultimatum: return the effigy, or they’ll command it to destroy her.
And yes, it’s something they can do.
Will Lizzie keep the ghosts happy while performing her sanctioned duties or will the hounds catch up to her before she’s safe? Find out now by downloading this edge-of-your-seat urban fantasy by bestselling author Andrea Pearson now!

This series is a great adult fantasy series. I like how Lizzie knows her flaws and works past them. In this book, she must figure out why the amulet isn’t working 100%. All the while figuring out what, if anything, is between her and Abel or Connor. There are some great surprises and twists along the way as well!
I love that this book was a shorter novel. Of course, it is geared toward young adults, but I am glad I had it done in 3 hours. I don’t have much time to read and I hate leaving a book unfinished. This book is just as great as its predecessor. We have magic (some of which is not working right!!!), some light romantic feelings (hand-holding being the biggest PDA), and non-stop action. No swearing as all of Andrea’s books are cleanly written. I am left wondering what is wrong with the shade amulet, but I am totally satisfied with how this book ends and am awaiting the next. P.S. Adults will love this as well, at least this 33 year old did!
In The Black Masquerade, Ms Pearson once again weaves a very fast-paced urban fantasy. The effigy that is protecting Lizzie needs to be returned, the amulet doesn’t work as expected and things get crazy as we steam through this book. Lizzie is still learning how to use the amulet, the hounds are getting closer and braver and Lizzie is learning who in the magical world she can trust. I can’t wait for the next installment! *I received a free eBook copy of this book in exchange for an honest review.
I’m anxiously waiting for the next book!
If the blurb for this book isn’t enough to get you reading this book then you are totally missing out! Ms Pearson is a fantastic and talented writer. So much mystery and adventure is contained in this book. Enough issues have been resolved to make for a satisfying ending but a gentle cliffhanger is left to wet your appetite for the next book in this series. And maybe perhaps a little romance???? I will anxiously await for what Ms Pearson has in store next.
A NAIL BITING ADRENALINE RUSH!!!
Once again Andrea Pearson has done it. She has a way of bringing life to her stories that no one else can come close. This is a fantastic, amazing tale that will take you on an adventure that will keep you hanging on every word. I love this series and I cannot wait for the next installment. If you haven’t been reading Ms. Pearson’s works, you’re missing out.
This book is a great sequel to The Shade Amulet. The author builds a world that is original and pulls you in from the beginning. Once you start reading the book, you can’t put the book down until the end. The only problem is the book is part of a series and therefore leaves you on the edge of your seat wanting more at the end. I can’t wait for the next book to come out.
The book was entertaining and a page turner especially as it builds towards the exciting conclusion of the book which leaves the reader awaiting the the next installment in the series. Enter the magical world of Andrea Pearson. You won’t be sorry.
