Eve's powerful demon father. Balaam offers knowledge and access that can be difficult to obtain elsewhere in the afterlife, but his help comes with family expectations and motives Eve does not trust.

First appears in chapter 28

A living necromancer whose public career as a television medium disguises her genuine ability to communicate with ghosts. Jaime gives Eve a rare route into the mortal world, especially when the search for the Nix moves dangerously close to Savannah.
