Carpe Demon

By: Julie Kenner

Narrated by: Carly Robins

From New York Times best-selling author Julie Kenner, aka J. Kenner.

Kate Connor is your average, everyday mom with two kids, a husband, and one very big secret...she used to be a Demon Hunter for a secret arm of the Vatican. Now retired, she's more interested in the domestic than the demonic. So when she catches sight of a demon in Walmart, she tells herself it's some other Hunter's problem. But when that demon attacks her in her kitchen, retirement is no longer an option.

Now Kate has to kick a little demon butt, figure out why the creatures are trying to take her out and take over her hometown, and at the same time take care of her two-year-old, deal with a hormonal 14-year-old, get the family to Catholic mass on time, and try to keep her past a secret from her daughter and her husband.

She's a little out of practice, but hey...if she can juggle two kids and an impromptu dinner party, ridding the town of demons should be a piece of cake. Like the saying goes, Carpe Demon...and Kate intends to do just that.

Critic reviews

"This book, as crammed with events as any suburban mom's calendar, shows you what would happen if Buffy got married and kept her past a secret. It's a hoot." (Charlaine Harris, New York Times best-selling author)

Good mystery

Good story line. Kept me guessing but it was worth the wait. I thought the mother was a bit over the top with body neighbor but it works.

awesome story

The narrator was perfect for the story. She did a great job bringing the characters to life.

Awesome!

I love the entire collection! I have the paperbacks and have read them at least 3 times over the years. The audibles I've listened to many more.

light and serious at the same time

I especially like that it's about a 40ish woman who's got a normal life. This was a series I listened to from the library years ago and decided to add to my permanent collection. I'm enjoying it as much or more than the first time. on to the next book...

I loved this book!!!

The story was funny heartwarming nd really entertaining. Who wouldn’t want to be a demon hunter with Kate Connor? She’s awesome.
