Here’s the blurb: 


A gangster’s mansion in San Francisco. Unguarded safes with untold riches.


Pearl Tham is paralyzed by grief. She recently lost her mother, and now her landlord is evicting her from the apartment she and her mother shared. 

She finally gives in to her boyfriend’s request to rob Donnie Chan, head of one of the most notorious gangs in San Francisco’s Chinatown. Pearl and David have the perfect opportunity. While the gangster languishes in jail, his mansion—located in an exclusive neighborhood high above the Pacific Ocean—will be left with minimal guards on the day his men meet to elect new leadership.  

This will be Pearl’s first major job. If successful, it could fund her budding career as an international art thief and tomb raider. Unfortunately for her, Chan’s residence is protected by something unnatural that never sleeps. 

She will need all her ingenuity and superhuman powers to make it out alive. 

Conjuring the Rage Deity is the prequel to the Pearl Dragon Adventures. This fast-paced urban fantasy novella series is for you if you like strong female antiheroes, Asian magic and mysticism, and terrifying monsters from myth and legend.  

Check out the first book in the series, Offerings for the Dead, available on Amazon and Kindle Unlimited.
