The Vanish Requiem — A.J. Locke

Savior of the Ley LinesHero of VonuisPuppet of the High CovenKitaine Neris could do without that last title. But she's squarely under the thumb of Linton Gladstone, one of the powerful members of the High Coven. In the wake of high tensions between the witch and non-witch population, she becomes a pawn in Gladstone's agenda to use her powerful Vanish magic to show how witches and their abilities can play a positive role in society. And with Kit's strongest allies scattered to the wind, she feels helpless in her quest to ensure the High Coven faces consequences for their deadly misdeeds against their own kind. All while navigating the complexities of a broken heart and evolving feelings for a certain charming ghost.When the skull of a witch god is discovered, the brutal history of witches and their gods illuminates a long-laid plan to revive a witch class the gods themselves tried to eradicate. When Kit is recruited to ensure that doesn't happen, multiple plans with the skull at the center unfurl, and no matter which one is executed, the potential for danger is high. But Kit's allies are closer than she thinks, and as plans are set in motion, Kit and her Vanish magic might face her biggest challenge yet: a god whose grievances span millennia.
