Description

In this Gaslamp urban fantasy, the legendary inspector is up against a killer whose weapon of choice is a terrible disease that only black magic can cure.

Having barely escaped the clutches of the Darkwalker, Insp. Nicolas Lenoir throws himself into his work with a renewed determination. But his legendary skills are about to be put to the test. A horrific disease is ravaging the city--and evidence suggests it has been deliberately unleashed. With a mass murderer on the loose and the body count rising, the streets of Kennian are descending into mayhem.

As Lenoir and Sgt. Bran Kody lose precious time in their hunt for the killer and a cure, only one ray of hope exists: The nomadic Adali, famed for their arcane healing skills, claim to have the remedy. But dark magic comes at a price, one even the dying may be unwilling to pay. Now Lenoir will have to make a desperate gamble. And however the chips fall, the city of Kennian will never be the same . . .

"A dark fantasy detective story that takes readers on a dark, sometimes disturbing journey. E.L. Tettensor crafts a tale that makes you think even while you shudder--a delightful combination." --Fresh Fiction on Darkwalker
