📝 Description: To Kill a Demon (Liz Baker, book 6)

Christie Silvers presents the sixth installment in the Liz Baker series, focusing on a protagonist who has endured a year of supernatural chaos. The narrative centers on Liz’s desperate search for her missing friends, a quest complicated when her own inner demon assumes control. This entity, identified as Demon Dolly, instigates widespread disorder across Liz’s existence. The resulting actions include illicit encounters with unsuitable men and illegal activities that actively degrade the condition of Athena's Ambrosia, the bar Liz holds dear. The story examines the tension between identity and possession. While Liz’s friends attempt to support her, they struggle to distinguish the genuine person from the demonic impostor. The plot drives toward a critical question regarding Liz’s survival: she must either expel the internal monster or surrender to it and cease to exist. Silvers writes within the horror and supernatural fiction traditions, utilizing urban fantasy elements where monsters emerge from everyday settings like woodworks. This volume targets readers who enjoy fast-paced paranormal investigations featuring flawed heroes battling internal and external threats. It may not suit those preferring slow-burn atmospheric dread over action-driven plots.
