About The Serpent in Heaven

Felicia, Lizbeth Rose’s half-sister and a student at the Grigori Rasputin school in San Diego—capital of the Holy Russian Empire—is caught between her own secrets and powerful family struggles. As a granddaughter of Rasputin, she provides an essential service to the hemophiliac Tsar Alexei, providing him the blood transfusions that keep him alive. Felicia is treated like a nonentity at the bedside of the tsar, and at the school she's seen as a charity case with no magical ability.

But when Felicia is snatched outside the school, the facts of her heritage begin to surface. Felicia turns out to be far more than the Russian-Mexican Lizbeth rescued. As Felicia’s history unravels and her true abilities become known, she becomes under attack from all directions. Only her courage will keep her alive…

“I’m not touring for this book,” Harris said on her blog. “Traveling is painful for me now, though I love to meet the people who actually read my books. It charges me up, getting out there and answering questions, meeting bookstore personnel who sell my books and meeting patrons who buy them in whatever format they prefer. In 2022, a tour is not happening. I’m doing lots of podcasts and Zooms and Streamyards, phone interviews, and a few conventions instead. I hope you’ve seen/heard/read some of these.”
