Fever Season by Barbara Hambly

4.0

This book does slow horror and claustrophobic dread better than actual horror, and worse because it's based on real events.
I've been tensed for bad shit to go down since Lalaurie appeared in a crowd scene in the first book, and lo, it did.


However, it's also the start of a surprisingly sweet romance. And the source of the word "Borgialatin", truly an underestimated word of our times.
