Every thirty years, the House of Lazuliè selects a new Crowned Heart… and seals her fate in blood.
Behind wrought-iron gates in modern-day New Orleans, the House of Lazuliè stands as both legend and allure. A Creole mansion steeped in perfume, prayer, and history, it opens its doors each Mardi Gras season to crown a new queen. A young woman celebrated for her grace. Her devotion. And for reasons no one outside the House can quite explain, her transformation. The city calls it tradition. The House remembers a debt.
Alexis Rochon believes she is entering a sanctuary for women, a refuge built on sisterhood and grace. Instead, she finds a mansion bound by ritual, ruled by three elegant Madames, and watched by a presence that listens far too closely when prayers are spoken.
As the seven days to the crowning unwind, strange offerings surface across New Orleans. Dreams turn to visions. Voices gather behind the glass. And with the final night approaching, Alexis must decide what she is willing to surrender… because in Lazuliè’s world, every crown carries a price, and not all who enter the House leave it the same.
A lush descent into Southern Gothic horror and supernatural suspense, The House of Lazuliè blends the beauty of New Orleans with the terror of its buried devotions… where legacy is a cage, devotion is a blade, and survival means learning the rules before the House finishes teaching them.
Enter the House. Join the Krewe. Pray you survive the crowning.
