Description
Gripping supernatural terror launching a new trilogy by the acclaimed author of Coldbrook ("distinct, unique, and absorbing"), The Silence ("truly addictive"), and the Alien-Predator "Rage War".
There's an underground black market for arcane things. Akin to the trade in rhino horns or tigers' bones, this group traffics in mummified satyrs, gryphons' claws, and more.
When Angela Gough's lover Vince goes missing, she sets out to find him—whatever the risk. She learns that he was employed by the infamous London crime lord Frederick Meloy, providing bizarre objects beyond imagining. Descending into the city's underbelly, she uncovers a deadly side to the black market. It might have claimed Vince, and Angela may be next.
Book Hero Magic summarised reviews for this book. While it's new and still learning, it may not be perfect - your feedback is welcome! HOW HAS THIS BEEN REVIEWED?
Praised for its darkly beautiful and richly imagined world, Relics has been described as a blend of Anne Rice's and Clive Barker's styles, skillfully grounding supernatural terror in modern-day London. Acclaimed author James Rollins commends its vivid storytelling and eagerly anticipates the unfolding trilogy.
