If only her parents had taught her more about how to use her powers before they’d abandoned her. When we meet Liza Meeks, she’s a young woman who can communicate with animals by sending images to their minds… though sometimes those images kill the animals.

Reviewįrom the prologue, Bacchanal is a story of magic, horror, and the unknown. She doesn’t realize the dangers lurking within the carnival, and with a cast of strange and magical characters, there’s no telling how the evil will be unleashed. As they travel from Louisiana through Texas and Oklahoma, Liza is also on the hunt for her younger sister, whom she misses dearly. Liza must learn to control her powers, and fast. But Liza isn’t as good with animals as she claims, and her power of communicating with them often leaves the animals dead. Liza has a way with animals, and she must put together a show now that she’s part of Bacchanal. When a traveling carnival, the Bacchanal Carnival, arrives in Baton Rouge, she leaves her deadend job for a life on the road.
