Demon hunter Jack Grenard's life changed three years ago when his wife was brutally murdered by the very demons he'd been hunting. At the urging of his partner Cam Macarro, he's starting a new life in Atlanta, hoping he'll find the man he used to be. But on a routine hunt, they come across a new type of demon--one that saves instead of kills.
Meanwhile, demons across Atlanta are preparing for the quadrennial uprising of their Underworld brethren. Worse yet, there's a rumor the so-called king of the demons, Bael, will appear for the first time in over a century. Jack and Cam must uncover the truth about the mystery woman before all hell--literally--breaks loose.
Resurgence is the first in a new Urban Fantasy trilogy from S. Usher Evans, author of the Madion War Trilogy, Razia, and Lexie Carrigan Chronicles.
Evans brings elements of a real-world police procedural to a highly detailed supernatural world, giving a surprising amount of emotional depth and complexity to the opening of her Demon Spring series. The two government agents at the story's center share a rich history and a complex, ever-developing relationship that works in good counterpoint to the damaging and abusive relationship between the demons they pursue. Though there is some bluntness to the narrative, and some lengthy (though not wholly unnecessary exposition), this is an impressive start to a promising urban fantasy series. - RT Book Reviews
Demon Spring is the perfect blend between urban fantasy and real life struggles. Not only are these characters battling actual demons, they're also struggling with their inner ones as well. Never has a paranormal felt so relatable to me! - Chelsea Coates, Books for Thought Blog
There's a good balance of setting/backstory, action, and character development in this first installment of the series. As always, the best part of [Evans'] book is the main characters; the protagonist Jack faces grief, loss, and peril while avoiding strongman hero clichés for a very refreshing supernatural suspense thriller - Elizabeth F., Goodreads Reviewer
It is very easy to get sucked into the Demon Spring world and I can't wait to crack open the second in the series. - Katrina M., Goodreads Reviewer
