Sam Flint may be a quasi-immortal, but he’s far from living the high life. As a private eye in Monster City, he’s king only of a crumbling apartment, a pile of unpaid rent, and a marriage to his kitsune wife, Fox, that’s the only thing keeping him sane.
When wealthy Lloyd Burgess hires Sam for a simple snatch-and-grab—retrieve his runaway daughter and deliver her back home—Sam jumps at the chance to pay the bills. But nothing in Monster City is ever that simple.
The girl turns out to be far more dangerous than expected, and Sam finds himself in a no-win situation. Caught between deadly choices, Sam will need all his grit, luck, and magic to survive—because the wrong move will cost him everything.
