Description
The creator of DC Comics' award-winning Lucifer series and one of the world's most celebrated comics writers, Mike Carey now makes his fiction debut with a brilliant thriller about ghosts, ghouls, and the luckless bastard who hunts them.
Felix Castor is a freelance exorcist, and London is his stomping ground. It may seem like a good ghostbuster can charge what he likes and enjoy a hell of a lifestyle -- but there's a risk. Sooner or later he's going to take on a spirit that's too strong for him, and he'll be lucky if he only ends up dead. So Castor plans to get out of the game -- right after he pays the bills with one last case in an old museum. But instead of driving out the ghost, Castor stirs up a life-leeching demon, a were-beast, and a ruthless East End gang boss, all of whom want to stop him from getting too close to an unpleasant truth. Stop him cold...
