Taking out hellish creatures—not a problem. Armed with blessed silver hollow-points and the ability to manipulate magick, he's ready for anything—except betrayal he never saw coming...

Deacon Chalk knows the biggest danger in fighting monsters is becoming one. Just another day at the office for your friendly neighborhood occult bounty hunter. If keeping three helpless were-dog children safe means battling a malevolent trio of witches by any means necessary, so be it. If that means partnering with a ruthless government agent to stay one step ahead of the allies and friends he must now suspect, he's not going to cry about it. The only way Deacon can save humans and shape-shifters alike is to embrace a power beyond his imagining, putting his team at stake—and his soul on the line...

      Deacon Chalk is a supernatural bounty hunter who rarely manages to collect any bounties, instead slaying evil out of the goodness of his heart. He’s taken on murderous were-lions and vampires (in 2012’s Blood and Bullets and Blood and Silver) and now faces immortal evil witches powered by a Kandarian demon called the Keeper and involved with a book called the Necronomicon. If this sounds familiar, it should: the villains are a direct homage to the Evil Dead movies. The entire book is fueled by over-the-top audacity: were-dogs and were-lions are joined by were-possums, and the action often returns to Polecats, a bikini bar staffed entirely by strippers that Deacon has rescued from supernatural attackers. (“Monsters love strippers,” one of the women explains.) At one point, the Catholic church even awards Chalk with the historic magical sword Durendal. But Chalk takes his gory demon-slaying business dead seriously, allowing readers to have both fun and high-powered action. This exciting and charmingly ridiculous installment will appeal to fans of B-movies and urban fantasy.
