When the dead whisper, chaos follows.

Gabby thought she had faced it all: raising a baby, working through grad school, and dealing with cadaver exhibits. But when a silent cadaver unexpectedly stirs, her world doesn't just shift – it shatters.

Once quiet ghosts scream into the night.

Buried secrets claw to the surface.

And a dark and ancient force sets its sights on Gabby and those she loves.

With her family in danger and her sanity hanging by a thread, Gabby isn't just fighting for survival but for the essence of her very being. Can she uncover the truth behind the supernatural forces besieging her, or will the darkness consume everything she's fought to protect?

The Sweet Skull is the second book in Manuel Ruiz's The Sugar Skull series.
