"All the Dead Shall Weep" by Charlaine Harris
From Saga Press a Simon and Shuster imprint copyright 2023
Sold then at $28.99. I got this copy at the SFPL where I have
gotten all the rest of the series and if you have not read the
earlier books in the series you are missing a treat. Also there
are maps in the earlier books about arrangements of political
power.
This the 5th Book in the epic of Lizbeth Rose the gunnie in a story
happening about the 1930s in a strange political arrangement
of North America. The USA has disintegrated from the Union with
Dixie taking itself away, William Randoph Hearst invited the deposed
and exiled Tsar and his court to California and now the capital of the
Holy Russian Empire is in San Diego. Lisbeth lives in Texhoma in a
small town Segundo Mexia. She makes her living as a hired gun to
protect travelers and shipments. Bandits are all over the place and
Indians are at hand but not attacking generally. Militias are stirring
though and Lizbeth and her half-Sister Felicai have just been reunited
along with Peter, the brother of her husband Eli. Then the strange
militia attacks Segundo Mexia. It takes some time but they are looking
for wizards, Peter and Eli (both wizards called grigori) follow
them ...
Felicia, a death wizard, and Lizbet follow them. Quite a lot happens
as might be expected in a Harris book.

Not secret is the fact that like all the other books by Charlaine Harris
I enjoyed this very much.
