Spear of Destiny: A Pulp Adventure (The Myth Hunter)
Elisa Hill isn't just an ex-professor with a knack for dead languages. She's a myth hunter - a woman who chases down the legends the rest of the world dismisses as folklore, because she knows better than anyone that the monsters are real. When the Freemasons come calling with a job tied to her own bloodline, she can't turn it down. Her grandfather once vanished into the Himalayas and came back with a story no one believed: that the Nazis' occult inner circle, the Thule Society, had gotten their hands on the Spear of Destiny - the very weapon said to have pierced Christ's side on the cross, and the key to unstoppable power for whoever wields it.
The spear disappeared in 1946. Now, stolen journals have surfaced, and a shadowy order of fanatics is closing in on the truth Elisa's grandfather spent his life burying. With her kitsune partner, Asami - equal parts loyal friend and lethal shapeshifter - and a Freemason handler who knows more than he's telling, Elisa is dragged into a war that never really ended. From the frozen tunnels where her grandfather once bled to an infamous European castle, she'll have to outrun assassins, occultists, and something far older and hungrier than either - all while confronting the possibility that the artifact her family died to hide might already be corrupting everyone who gets close to it, herself included.
Some legends are better left buried. And with the Spear of Destiny back in play, Elisa Hill may be the only thing standing between mankind and a power that has never once been used for good.
Spear of Destiny is a fast-paced pulp adventure of Nazi occultism, ancient relics, and one woman's fight to keep history's deadliest secret buried - for good.
