Dark Pawn: A Paranormal Academy Urban Fantasy (Leah Ackerman Book 1) (Hardcover) (ISBN-13: 9781958924211)

When fifteen-year-old Leah Ackerman witnesses her father murder her mother, she discovers a terrifying truth: he's been possessed by a demon.

Now orphaned and grappling with newfound magical abilities, Leah is thrown into a hidden world of supernatural warfare.

Taken to a remote outpost by her estranged uncle, Leah must learn to control her dangerous powers while training with other young mystics. But as she uncovers her mother's secret past as an elite demon hunter, Leah realizes she's being watched-and the demon that destroyed her family isn't finished with her yet.

With her father still possessed and a mysterious society of Mystics who carries its own agenda, Leah must decide who to trust. Her growing powers could help her avenge her mother's death-or lead her down the same dark path that claimed her father.

DARK PAWN is a gritty YA urban fantasy where family loyalty collides with supernatural forces, and vengeance comes at a devastating price.
