An atmospheric gothic tale set in the ancient streets of York.

The story follows Harper as she investigates a series of gruesome murders of a supernatural nature. We are taken deep into the heart of York with vivid descriptions of the city, to an alternative world where creatures of magic live alongside humans who have developed a long standing hatred of them.

But Harper holds a secret: she too has magic powers and she will be torn between her duty to her family – a famous group of demonhunters – and her affinity with magic creatures.

There is a clever use of folklore and mythology mixed with modern technology, and while we follow Harper and friends as they unveil the mystery behind the murders, we also witness her moral conflicts. The end has left the door wide-open for the next instalment with many questions answered. Fans of contemporary fantasy should definitely check this one out!
