AN EVIL FORCE IS FEASTING ON DESIRE …
Evelyn Kendricks is having a day. An overworked manager, she’s been dumped by her toxic boyfriend while struggling to cope with the recent ghost invasion that’s shocked the world. Devastated, she is mysteriously summoned to an eerie townhouse where she meets Linda Villaneuva, a private investigator who runs a secret mystical detective agency. She’s able to sense the emotions of others, especially those suffering from heartache.
Linda would like nothing more than to help her latest client, but she soon makes a gruesome discovery: People are losing their memories and wandering DC streets in a zombie-like daze. Their eyes, demon red. Their skin, blistered, burning … and no one understands why.
Panic has begun to consume the city as more folks succumb, putting Evelyn and other residents at risk. In the biggest case of her life, Linda follows a trail of clues to unearth an evil force far deadlier than anything she could’ve imagined. And all the while, she must reckon with the tragedies of her past and the price she’s paid for her supernatural gifts.
A layered urban fantasy that serves up steamy romance, titillating mystery, and otherworldly horror, The Broken Hearts Agency is the latest page-turner from the acclaimed author of The Ghosts of Gwendolyn Montgomery.

"The Broken Hearts Agency is bold, seductive, and unafraid to look directly at the wounds that shape us. Clarence fuses gripping urban fantasy with spiritual reckoning, crafting a story where desire is dangerous, memory is salvation, and even the most fearsome spirit carries the imprint of history. Lush, provocative, and deeply human, Haynes proves once again that he is building one of the most compelling mystical worlds in contemporary fiction."Cebo Campbell, author of Sky Full of Elephants

"A fast-paced and thrilling read, The Broken Hearts Agency is perfect for fans who like a little humor mixed with their horror. In the midst of a nightmarish scenario that has people fleeing Washington, DC, an empathic PI works to uncover what's behind a devilishly frightening affliction that has the power to kill. Clarence A. Haynes's latest novel gives us shadowy entities, orisha spirituality, remarkably diverse characters, and a spine-chilling story that's equal parts seductive and scary."Del Sandeen, author of This Cursed House

"The first thing that strikes you about Clarence’s writing is the authenticity. He makes the mysticism he weaves through The Broken Hearts Agency feel immediately real, allowing you to get swept up in his rich characters, including the city of Washington, DC. He has crafted a sumptuous journey into what it means to boldly be who you truly are."Markus Redmond, author of Blood Slaves
