City of the Lost
Joe Sunday’s dead.
He just hasn’t stopped moving yet.
Sunday’s a thug, an enforcer, a leg-breaker for hire. When his boss
sends him to kill a mysterious new business partner, his target strikes back in ways Sunday could never have imagined. Murdered, brought back
to a twisted half-life, Sunday finds himself stuck in the middle of a
race to find an ancient stone with the power to grant immortality. With it, he might live forever. Without it, he’s just another rotting extra in a George Romero flick.
Everyone’s got a stake, from a psycho Nazi wizard and a razor-toothed
midget, to a nympho-demon bartender, a too-powerful witch who just wants to help her homeless vampires, and the one woman who might have all
the answers — if only Sunday can figure out what her angle is.
Before the week is out he’s going to find out just what lengths people
will go to for immortality. And just how long somebody can hold a
grudge.
