Synopsis

Halfhuman Cal Leandros and his brother, Niko, aren't exactly prospering with their preternatural detective agency. Who could have guessed that business could dry up in New York City, where vampires, trolls, and other creepy crawlies are all over the place? But now there's a new arrival in the Big Apple. A malevolent evil with ancient powers is picking off humans like sheep, deadset on making history with an orgy of blood and murder. And for Cal and Niko, this is one paycheck they're going to have to earn.

Review:

"A roaring rollercoaster of a read...[it'll] take your breath away."

"Cal's a sarcastic, sardonic narrator who pulls the reader into his world, both the good and the bad."

"The plot is complex enough to please mystery fans, with supernatural elements that put this in the company of Jim Butcher and Charlaine Harris."
