"Occult, paranormal detective fiction. Philip Marlowe meets the Sirius star."I am Thomas Hunter, a paranormal investigator and part-time ghost charmer. I walk a thin line where the shadows of perception reshape the definition of reality. I used to be a cop, I used to have a wife. Then I died.When I woke up, I had three entities in my head, a bad case of amnesia, and an insider's view of the occult.I named myself Hunter because it expresses what I do.Lately, two corpses have shown up in the San Francisco morgue. They have something unique about them: they don't decompose. The Vatican claimed them as holy relics, but alive these stiffs were no more Catholic than Crowley.I wasn't the first choice for the case, but I might be the best. See, I find what the cops and private dicks miss, but I have to do it my way.I am Thomas Hunter, and nothing is what it seems.

The stakes just went up and the case just got personal. Hunter finds himself pacified in the quaint and cozy village of San Ragita, living with Avril, the love of his life, and her charming daughter Jenny. But all too soon it becomes apparent that San Ragita has another purpose that is anything but cozy or quaint. His quest to discover the truth pushes him deeply into a shadow reality where occult phenomena and everyday occurrences are indistinguishable; what the ancient's called Chapel Perilous. Here, Hunter finds that his own existence is tied intimately with those who are made Incorruptible. Now, without his crew and facing his own extinction, Hunter must piece together a slippery trail of clues to discover who or what is behind an insidious black magick conspiracy that threatens to enslave the human race.

It's not only Tenebrosorum vamps that are after Hunter, or an assassin from another plane, but also San Francisco's ruling pack of werewolves.Why? Because they all think he knows the whereabout of the key. He doesn't even know what he had for lunch with all that amnesia caused by the body swapping.Add to that bouts of phantom pain, a keen taste for alcohol and a broken heart and he's going to have one hell of a time staving off the end of the world.

A new Thomas Hunter adventure.The world has changed. The Rise of the Sirius star is showering Earth in a surfeit of occult radiation, giving birth to a host of new phenomena, not the least of which is a novel strain of vampire. The Old-World Therians are in danger of extinction and a new species of bloodsucker is on the rise, and they're not interested in merely sipping blood like a fine wine.It was business-almost-as-usual with Hunter exterminating the regular occult creepy crawlies, and the occasional wayward vamp that just had to get in his way, when a certain blondie showed up on his doorstep.Morgan was sent by Hunter's old friend, Dax, and Hunter wasn't exactly thrilled because in addition to manifesting as Rat Therian, his new guest had one hell of a secret that could threaten a whole lot more than basic sanity. In fact, it just might bring the house down on all of their heads because Morgan had gotten herself in trouble with the vamps known as the Dark Ones who were not only poised to take over the local vampire scene, but the whole damn world.From there it didn't take more than a few rounds loaded into the semi-auto, and his finding of a certain alchemical trinket that might be more important than the Holy Grail, for Hunter to realize they were all in Sirius trouble.
