About this book
A monster hunter bound by family curse and a fear-eating creature cursed to die forge an uneasy alliance in this dark, atmospheric fantasy steeped in Slavic folklore. When Dymitr strikes a desperate bargain with Ala—her help in tracking down the legendary Baba Jaga in exchange for breaking her death curse—they're forced to confront not just the monsters hunting them, but the dangerous secrets and hidden motives threatening to tear them apart. Rich with danger, redemption, and the kind of tension that crackles between two people with everything to lose, this is a hauntingly beautiful story about finding salvation in the most unexpected places. Perfect for readers who crave dark fantasy with emotional depth and a romance that burns as fiercely as it heals.

“Create a playlist called When Among Crows. Dark, atmospheric folk with gothic undertones. Haunting vocals over acoustic instruments and subtle orchestration. Tension-building indie and alternative tracks with Slavic-inspired melodies. Moody, introspective, and deeply unsettling—like walking through ancient forests at dusk.”
