What if no one believed your warning—until it was too late?

Diana McLeod didn’t want to be the spark that lit the fuse.

She wanted tenure, a bourbon, and maybe a little credit for her life’s work.

Instead, she went digging for the truth. And found a relic that would change everything.

Relic is the prequel to The Hellgate Chronicles.

Relic is the secret history of the Hellgate.

Set in 1974, it follows fearless scholar Diana McLeod as she uncovers the truth behind an ancient portal that will one day change the world—and the girl fated to stop it.

It’s smart, dangerous, and full of supernatural secrets academia tried to erase.

This time, the world-changing choice belongs to her.

Brilliant, relentless, and absolutely done being underestimated.

“A gripping blend of supernatural mystery and feminist rebellion. Diana is the kind of heroine we need more of—brilliant, relentless, and absolutely done being underestimated.”

like Indiana Jones meets The Magicians

“It’s like Indiana Jones meets The Magicians, but with a woman who knows the cost of being right in a room full of men who refuse to listen. Couldn’t put it down.”

Meet Jocelyn

Jocelyn writes urban fantasy for badass women who know life doesn’t end at forty—it just gets more interesting.

Her stories blend supernatural suspense with emotional grit, found family, and fierce heroines who’ve lived long enough to kick ass and mean it.

Relic, the haunting prequel to The Hellgate Chronicles, introduces the academic origins of the Shadow World and the fearless scholar who dared to expose it.

When Jocelyn’s not conjuring demons or resurrecting ancient secrets, she’s probably hunting down the perfect cup of chai, outside in her garden, or writing dispatches from the Hellgate.

A killer prequel to an amazing series

“Smart, sharp, and simmering with danger. Relic pulled me in with its moody 70s vibe and a protagonist who refuses to be silenced. A killer prequel to an amazing series.”
