TRADE PAPERBACK EDITION Hold on to your hats for this paranormal adventure Vampires, shape-shifting, spiritual fog, a soul caught in Limbo a Wendigo; and hobos-the rail-riding kind. But, what if those hobos were more than mere mortals? What if a gang of them worshipped a deity that lived in monster form and survived on human hearts? Enter detective Maxx Shadow, a man who narrowly escaped his encounter with the monster. Twenty-five years after that attack, he's hired to reclaim a necklace and find justice for a lost soul. The moment he sees the picture of the necklace, the face of the man wearing it jars a memory loose from the spiritual fog that has prevented Maxx from remembering all the details around how he became scarred. The closer the hobo with the necklace and the monster come to Maxx's Chicago, the more he remembers and the more he realizes he can't take them down alone. Fortunately, he has a new employee who happens to be a vampire.
