Hell's Detective

by Michael Logan

Hell's Detective
Hell's Detective

Haunted detective navigates Hell's underbelly for redemption.

"Hell's Detective" plunges you into a fusion of mystery and dark fantasy where our protagonist, Kat Murphy, doesn't only wrestle with the familiar grit of detective work, but also the quite literal demons of her own making. It's perfect for those who thrive on brooding atmospheres and complex moral quandaries within a supernatural setting. The urgency of Kat's quest, coupled with the author's skill in intertwining the ethereal with the noir, makes for an engrossing read that could challenge your notions of justice and redemption.

Note: While we do our best to ensure the accuracy of cover images, ISBNs may at times be reused for different editions of the same title which may hence appear as a different cover.

Description

Kat Murphy is a private detective tortured by demons. Real ones. She is serving a death sentence in Lost Angeles, the dark and depraved city in Hell where a beast known as a Torment forces her to relive, night after night, the moment she killed her lover and put a bullet in her own skull. Kat longs to make amends for her sins. So when the city’s Chief Administrator hires her to retrieve a stolen box with a mysterious power, offering to call off her Torment in return, she gets the chance to do just that. But if Kat has learned one thing, it’s that every case has a wrinkle. As she trawls drug dens, casinos, and fighting pits in search of the thief, she discovers that both box and city contain secrets darker than she could ever have imagined. And with time running out, Kat must choose between her own desire for peace and the fate of the world above in Hell's Detective, the electrifying new mystery from award-winning author Michael Logan.
