Review
“Rowland’s delightful novel jumps genre lines with a little something for everyone—mystery, horror, humor, and even a smattering of romance. Not to be missed—all that’s required is a high tolerance for gray matter. For true zombiephiles, of course, that’s a no brainer.”
Review
"Rowland completely upends the Kara Gillan series in this installment. Everything we thought we knew about the inhabitants of Rowlands universe is called into question, with devastating results. Rising star Rowland kicks it into a whole new gear with this outstanding story that is heartbreaking, terrifying, and utterly thrilling!" —

"I was awestruck at the twists and turns and the, 'Oh man, why didn't I see that before!' ... This series is top-notch in the genre. Gritty and dark, this is really good reading!" —Felicia Day
"A nifty combination of police procedural and urban fantasy." —Charlaine Harris
"A killer mid-series offering. Its hard to believe that any book could create as much anticipation as the climactic end of Sins of the Demon, but Touch of the Demon opens up a whole new world, mythology, and love life for Kara, leaving me dying for book six." —All Things Urban Fantasy
"Touch of the Demon is hands down the darkest, grittiest installment yet, and it was absolutely fantastic." —Sweet Tidbits
"I dont think theres a world quite like these books, nor do I think theres a character quite like Kara.... Its a truly excellent book, and my main problem now is that its set such very high expectations for the whole year." —Fangs for the Fantasy
"Diana Rowland knows what Urban Fantasy readers want, and she delivers every time! ... Ms. Rowland gets two thumbs up for a job well done. I absolutely cannot wait for more!" —Night Owl Reviews
Review
"Powerhouse Rowland has taken Karas and the readers notions of allies and enemies and redefined them, so current and past events are subject to reexamination—with sometimes devastating results.
Rowland has firmly established herself at the top of the genre!” —

Synopsis
The homicide beat in Louisiana isn't just terrifying, it's demonic. Detective Kara Gilligan of the supernatural task force has the ability to summon demons to her aid, but she herself is pledged to serve a demonic lord. And now, people who've hurt Kara in the past are dropping dead for no apparent reason. To clear her name and save both the demon and human worlds, she's in a race against the clock and in a battle for her life that just may take her to hell and back.
Synopsis
Homicide detective Kara Gillian has a special talent: she can sense the "arcane" in our world, and there's quite a bit of it, even in Beaulac, Louisiana. She's also a summoner of demons, and works on a task force that deals with supernatural crimes. Her partners are attractive and smart FBI agents, but they're not summoners, and they're not telling Kara why they are on this special force with her.
TO make things worse, Kara has pledged herself to one of the most powerful of demons-a Demon Lord-who helped save her partner's life, but now expects things in return. Meanwhile, she's trying to solve a string of murders that are somehow tied together by money, sex, rock music and...mud. But how can she concentrate on the case when she's not even sure who-or what-her partners are?
Synopsis
Angel Crawford is finally starting to get used to life as a brain-eating zombie, but her problems are far from over.

Yeah, that’s right—the zombie mafia.
Throw in a secret lab and a lot of conspiracy, and Angel’s going to need all of her brainpower—and maybe a brain smoothie as well—in order to get through it without falling apart.
