Death Toll - Paperback

by Robert Poulin (Author)

What started out as a routine call led to so much more... My name is Veronika Kane, and I'm the Captain of the Ghost Watch in the reborn city of Shadow Philadelphia. After we disposed of the city's previous master and his minions, things were looking up, but in war things are never that easy. A routine call with Detective Frank Cooper blew the cover off of an elaborate scheme to plunge the city of brotherly love into chaos. When Necromancers, Were creatures, and the horrors of Chaos come together it can't mean anything good. With new and old enemies joining forces against us, I'm going to need all the help I can get. Lucky for me, my old friend Frank Cooper will be there to lend a hand, along with Brianna, a strong willed were-ferret, and the stormy eyed wizard Nathaniel Carter. I just hope it will be enough to save everyone. This time, our enemies aren't just attacking us in Limbo; this time, they are taking the battle to the streets of the living world and its unknowing citizens. If the Old Ones rise, I don't think there will be anything anyone can do to stop them. My name is Veronika Kane, and this war is far from over.
