When it comes to supernatural intrigue, nobody does it better than New York Times bestselling author Simon R. Green.
Eddie Drood, at your service. For generations my family has been keeping humanity safe from the wicked, the nasty, and the generally not-nice inhuman predators who feed on peopleâs fear and misery. No one kicks evil arse better
than us Droodsâespecially yours truly.
In fact, my arse-kicking skills have come to the attention of the legendary Alexander King, Independent Agent extraordinaire, who spent a lifetime doing anything and everythingâfor the right price. Now heâs on his deathbed, looking to
bestow all of his priceless secrets to a worthy successor.
To decide, King challenges six competitorsâmyself includedâto solve five mysteries all around the world, figuring that along the way weâll backstab one another until only one remains. But Iâve got to win at all costs, because King holds
the most important secret of all to the Droods: the identity of the traitor in our midst.
