The Hanged Man

The reckoning begins ... In New Orleans' French Quarter, a cursed tarot Card vanishes from an occult antiquities shop, the scene of a brutal murder-The Hanged Man, an Artifact tied to a cryptic puzzle book that has treasure hunters and conspiracy theorists circling the city. Eliza and Esme Wren are sent in with a new experimental containment device and one mission: recover the Artifact before its influence spreads. But nothing about this case is contained for long. Elias and Solan are soon pulled into a separate trap when a familiar enemy arrives with a vendetta-and the knowledge to expose the Aegis Order's darkest secrets, including Solan's illicit use of Artifacts and Elias's buried past. As old betrayals resurface and THE HANGED MAN tightens its grip, the team discovers the Artifact is only the beginning. In New Orleans, secrets don't stay buried-and some are deadly enough to kill for. The greatest threat isn't the Artifact. It's the truth.
