Carrion: A Horror Novel (Malediction Saga Book #3)

The house is ash. The survivors are broken. But the curse is far from over.

The Magistra, Gizzy, didn’t ask for chaos…but chaos is what found her. Beatrix is gone, the church lies in ruins, and what’s left of the faithful are shadows clinging to ghosts. Gizzy never meant to get tangled in the mess, but when she dragged a reluctant stranger into the wreckage, she saw something else: a boy worth saving. Ichabod may be lost, but Gizzy has a plan—to wound the Devil where it hurts the most.

The Bastard wants out. Out of the cult, out of the ruins, out of the grip of yet another girl who thinks she can bend him to her will. But curiosity is a demon that always drags him back. So when Gizzy summons him, he shows up…with Ichabod in tow and a plan of his own. Because while she’s busy preaching salvation, he’s quietly sharpening his knives. And this time, he’s not leaving without drawing blood.

The Unloved has nothing left but hope, and even that is slipping. Abandoned by Beatrix. Abused by Lakyn. Ichabod doesn’t know who he is anymore or what he's fighting for. But when Gizzy offers him something Lakyn and Bea never could—purpose—he starts to see a path forward. Even if it means becoming something he once feared. Even if it means becoming the very thing he’s always run from.

With the fate of the damned hanging in the balance, Carrion is a heart-wrenching, violent, and deeply intimate finale that asks:

What’s left of love after it’s been bled dry? And who rises from the ashes when all the monsters are dead—or worse, in love? Finish the Malediction Trilogy now—and discover how even the most broken souls can still tear the world apart.
