Agents of Light and Darkness
PI John Taylor is - grudgingly - back in the Nightside, the secret supernatural heart of London, because the Unholy Grail is missing . . .
In the Nightside, that nightmarish realm hidden deep beneath London, it is forever 3 a.m. Here, inhuman creatures walk beside mythic gods. And John Taylor, private detective with a difference, is back, working this secret supernatural heart of London to find an item of inestimable value.
The Unholy Grail is missing . . . and everyone wants its corrosive power.
This time he must use his unique gifts to locate the cup from which Judas drank at the Last Supper, before it falls into the wrong hands. Anyone who touches the cup will gain tremendous power - but they will also be corrupted.
Angels, demons, sinners, and saints are all determined to find the Unholy Grail, no matter the cost. And it isn't long before they realise exactly who can lead them to it . . .
Agents of Light and Darkness is the sequel to Something From the Nightside and the second title in Simon R. Green's New York Times bestselling Nightside series.

Simon R. Green's Agents of Light and Darkness has been praised for its unique blend of supernatural and religious elements in a dark setting reminiscent of The Twilight Zone. The book has been described as an action-packed thriller that combines elements of Lovecraft and Holmes, making it a fun and engaging read. Critics have highlighted Green's considerable skill in crafting a story filled with a bizarre kick and a lot of talent on display. Moreover, readers who enjoy melodramatic gore mixed with humour will find comparisons to Jim Butcher's renowned wizard PI, Harry Dresden.
