Storm of Locusts: Volume 2

Kai and Caleb Goodacre have been kidnapped just as rumors of a cult sweeping across the reservation leads Maggie and Hastiin to investigate an outpost, and what they find there will challenge everything theyve come to know in this badass (The New York Times) action-packed sequel to Trail of Lightning. Its been four weeks since the bloody showdown at Black Mesa, and Maggie Hoskie, Din monster hunter, is trying to make the best of things. Only her latest bounty hunt has gone sideways, shes lost her only friend, Kai Arviso, and shes somehow found herself responsible for a girl with a strange clan power. Then the Goodacre twins show up at Maggies door with the news that Kai and the youngest Goodacre, Caleb, have fallen in with a mysterious cult, led by a figure out of Navajo legend called the White Locust. The Goodacres are convinced that Kais a true believer, but Maggie suspects theres more to Kais new faith than meets the eye. She vows to track down the White Locust, then rescue Kai and make things right between them. Her search leads her beyond the Walls of Dintah and straight into the horrors of the Big Water world outside. With the aid of a motley collection of allies, Maggie must battle body harvesters, newborn casino gods and, ultimately, the White Locust himself. But the cult leader is nothing like she suspected, and Kai might not need rescuing after all. When the full scope of the White Locusts plans are revealed, Maggies burgeoning trust in her friends, and herself, will be pushed to the breaking point, and not everyone will survive.
