For fans of Ben Aaronovitch and Jim Butcher
Reapers are real.
They move unseen through the streets of every city on earth, collecting the souls of the recently departed. It is the oldest job in existence. And for over 800 years, Hovengárd has been one of the best.
But when souls start vanishing and his fellow Reapers are abducted by a monstrous entity of smoke and ash, Hovengárd is forced into the one disguise no one will suspect: a mortal human.
Propelled into the ranks of the City of London Police, he finds himself partnered with the brilliant but grieving Dr. Amara Burman and the deeply sceptical Sergeant Parker. A Southwark murder squad veteran who has no time for a Detective Inspector who appeared from nowhere.
Together they begin to uncover something far darker than missing persons. The deaths are connected. The clues lead back further than anyone imagined, to missing artefacts, an elite private security firm, and whatever is hunting London?s streets has been waiting a very long time.
Four murders. Three missing Reapers. One ancient evil loose in London.
If Hovengárd cannot solve this case, the souls of the dead will go uncollected. And the consequences for the living will be unimaginable.
Some detectives solve crimes. Hovengárd has been collecting the dead for eight centuries. This time, he needs to do both.
Grave Omission is Book One of The Detective Hovengárd Series.
