As part of a family legacy representing courage, determination, and the occasional dirty trick, Eddie Drood rather enjoys making his own rules—and breaking them.
When it comes to facing down the darkest entities in creation and putting real boots to ethereal ass, he's the best in the biz. Or at least one of the best. He thinks.
That's why he's been summoned to the deathbed of the one and only Alexander King—a living (for now) legend in the realm of otherworldly cloak-and-dagger operations. As an independent agent, King has managed to collect quite a cache of secrets, conspiracies, and evidence worth killing for and then some. And he's putting the whole lot up for grabs in a twisted game of intelligence, skill, and survival.
Pitted against a selection of prime recruits from all over the supernatural spy game, Eddie is going to have to call on all his skills and dirty tricks, to come out ahead in the great spy game where only the quick and the cool survive. Because one of King's prized secrets is going to help Eddie uncover a hidden threat within his own family ...
"Bright, fast-paced ... Eddie makes a likable hero, and fans will enjoy following him through this surprisingly complex mystery."—Publishers Weekly

Green’s bright, fast-paced third Eddie “Shaman Bond” Drood adventure (after 2008’s Daemons Are Forever
) opens with rumors of a traitor undermining the Drood family’s efforts to guard humanity against paranormal and mystical threats. Complicating matters, legendary agent Arthur King is dying without an heir. Eddie joins a group of other agents in tackling King’s challenge: solve five of mankind’s greatest mysteries and learn King’s secrets, including the traitor’s name. Engaging, well-crafted quests take the team from Loch Ness to Roswell, where Eddie is forced to choose between saving humanity and recovering the information his family desperately needs. Though some supporting characters are clearly meant to be disposable, Eddie makes a likable hero, and fans will enjoy following him through this surprisingly complex mystery.
