Eve MacKenzie's Demons Books in Order

The Eve MacKenzie’s Demons books show a different side of Helen Fields, leaning into dark fantasy while keeping the legal and psychological threads that run through her crime novels. The series begins with The Immolation of Eve, where London lawyer Eve MacKenzie discovers that the story of her adoption hides something far stranger than she imagined.

Eve starts out as a bright, driven solicitor who enjoys her work, her London flat and her circle of friends. When she learns she was adopted, what should be a straightforward search for her birth mother pulls her into a world of demons, ancient rivalries and dangerous seduction. A trip to Krakow to defend a soldier accused in a disturbing rape case brings her face to face with Perun, an incubus who has his own agenda and sees Eve as the key to gaining power in his realm.

From there the books move between real‑world locations – London courtrooms, the Dragon’s Cave beneath Krakow, the Slovakian mountains and the wild landscapes around San Francisco and Yosemite – and a layered supernatural mythology. Eve finds herself caught between Perun and a human ranch hand who tries to protect her, each man holding different pieces of the truth about her family. The more she learns, the clearer it becomes that her heritage links her to a demonic tribe locked in a vicious struggle over control, and that her choices could save or destroy people she loves.

Power, desire and consent are constant questions in these books.

In The Vengeance of Legion, the second novel, Eve is still paying the price for the sacrifices she made at the end of the first story. She has tried to rebuild a normal life, only for the tribe of incubi she thought she had escaped to return with renewed fury. Torture, revenge and political manoeuvring in the demon world blend with the more ordinary complications of love, grief and family loyalty in the human one.

What makes the series stand out is the way it treats Eve herself. She is not a chosen‑one stereotype but a woman with a demanding job, messy relationships and a very human reaction to terror and temptation. She makes mistakes, runs when she should fight and fights when retreat would be safer, yet keeps pushing to protect the people around her and define her own identity rather than letting demons, relatives or lovers do it for her.

Readers coming from Fields’s crime novels will recognise the same tight pacing and eye for setting, but here the violence and erotic tension sit inside an explicitly supernatural frame. With only two books so far, the Eve MacKenzie’s Demons series offers a compact, high‑intensity read about a lawyer who discovers that the law has very little to say about the forces battling for her soul.
