Series background & context

Half-Lich is a dark urban-fantasy trilogy written by Katerina Martinez with Lee Dignam. It starts with Dark Siren, introducing Alice Werner, a supernatural investigator who deals with the kind of haunting problems most people never see.

Alice has already survived something no one should survive.

Her work brings her face to face with ghosts, dangerous spirits, mages, vampires, and the aftermath of a place beyond the ordinary world. She is tough because she has needed to be, but the past she escaped has left its mark on her. When a new case opens old doors, Alice has to decide how much she can risk to uncover the truth.

Dark Siren is followed by The Void Weaver and Night and Chaos. The trilogy works as one continuing supernatural mystery, with Alice's history and abilities becoming increasingly important as the danger around her grows. The books have a horror-tinged atmosphere, but the story stays grounded in Alice's practical need to survive and protect the people caught in the fallout.

The series is not a cozy ghost story. Its supernatural threats can be ugly, strange, and deeply personal. At the same time, Alice's voice and the relationships around her keep the books moving. Romance is present, especially in the unresolved connection with a man from her past, but it never makes the central danger feel safe.

Readers who enjoy paranormal investigators, alternate realms, cursed objects, and mysteries that expose older wounds will find a good entry point here. The setting has room for ordinary city life, but it is always one bad decision away from becoming a nightmare.

Begin with Dark Siren. It introduces Alice, the rules of her world, and the unanswered questions that carry across the trilogy.
