Overview

Witch hunts are on the rise and supernatural turf wars are reaching a boiling point. Then, just when it seems life couldn’t get any worse for Pete, Jack reappears—but he’s no longer the man she’s always known. Hell has changed him forever. And he’s brought back with him a whole world of trouble…

A cabal of necromancers are using ancient, unspeakable magic to turn the tide of war in their favor. Then, as the city is about to sink into chaos, Pete receives a chilling directive: To end the war, you must kill the crow-mage. Beset from all sides, Pete finds herself turning to an unholy source for help…even if doing so could destroy Black London—and life as she knew it—once and for all.

Library Journal

Faced with a bizarrely mutilated body found in the British Museum, London investigator Ollie Heath calls in a former colleague, Pete (Petunia) Caldecott, an expert on occult crimes. However, Pete's source for magical knowledge, punk rocker Jack Winter, is trapped in Hell, payment for a bargain with the dark powers in return for bringing him back from the dead 13 years earlier. When Jack's help against a coven of necromancers finally arrives, Pete discovers that she may be too late to save London from falling into the clutches of darkness. The third novel in Kittredge's "Black London" urban fantasy series (Street Magic; Demon Bound) focuses on Pete's struggle to protect the unknowing populace of her city without the love and support she once enjoyed. VERDICT Strong characters make this attractive to fans of the series as well as Jim Butcher's "Dresden Files."
