Someone should really turn this into a television series because it would be excellent for that. Benton-Walker's contemporary fantasy debut, Blood Debts, with powerful magical families, intergenerational curses, and deadly drama in New Orleans. And if they don't succeed, New Orleans may see another massacre. But if they have any hope of discovering who is coming after their family, they’ll have to find a way to trust each other and their family's magic, all while solving the decades-old murder that sparked the still-rising tensions between the city’s magical and non-magical communities. Even better than the random guys he hooks up with.Ĭristina and Clement used to be each other’s most trusted confidant and friend, now they barely speak. An ancient spell is what killed their father and she was the one who cast it. Someone who will come for them next.Ĭristina, once a talented and dedicated practitioner of Generational magic, has given up magic for good. Cursed by someone on the very magic council their family used to rule. Until, by chance, they discover their mother isn’t sick-she’s cursed. On the anniversary of these brutal events, Clement and Cristina Trudeau-the sixteen-year-old twin heirs to the powerful, magical, dethroned family-are mourning their father and caring for their sick mother. In the days that followed, a throne was stolen from a queen. Thirty years ago, a young woman was murdered, a family was lynched, and New Orleans saw the greatest magical massacre in its history.
