In this dark and atmospheric urban fantasy, Jeremiah Hunt, a fugitive with the ability to see the supernatural, is drawn to a post-Katrina New Orleans by the apocalyptic visions of his companion Denise. The city is plagued by a mysterious illness that targets the magically gifted, leaving them soul-less shells. Alongside the berserker Dmitri and a local Lord Marshal, the group discovers that an ancient Welsh personification of death known as the Angeu is harvesting souls to fuel an otherworldly army. As they battle the monstrous, magic-resistant Sorrows and evade a relentless FBI agent, Jeremiah is forced to navigate the treacherous landscapes of both the living and the dead. To save Denise from eternal imprisonment in the Fortress of Glass, Hunt must strike a bargain with a demonic entity and make a heart-wrenching sacrifice. Blending elements of noir detective fiction with ancient folklore, this story explores themes of loyalty, the burden of sight, and the high price of magical intervention.
