Death Card

August 11

Illustrated cover for Death Card by Jasmine Smith. A Black teenage girl peers out from behind the Death card, which she holds in between two fingers while the card obscures her right eye. She looks intently at the viewer even though her face is partly turned away, and there are golden butterflies or moths in the foreground along with a pair of skulls. There are what looks like swirls of black and purple magic around her, and the full moon hovers in the background.Death Card by Jasmine Smith

On an ordinary Monday morning, eighteen-year-old Mikaela Broussard receives the shock of her life. During a customer’s tarot reading at her family’s occult shop, she turns over the Death card and envisions the beautiful stranger stabbing her in the heart.

In order to determine why the girl, Joelle, wants to kill her, she’ll have to keep her close. But the more time Mikaela spends with her soon-to-be murderer, the more irresistible she finds her.

As if imminent death isn’t worrisome enough, witches are turning up with their magic stolen. And it’s clear some very dark magic is at work. Mikaela, as the next Witch Queen of her coven, is tasked with figuring out who’s behind the horrific acts—a mystery that will put her and her power to the test.

Death Card is a dark, pacy, and romantic fantasy about one witch’s journey to find the strength to fight for herself, her future, and her beloved community.
