Description

The latest book in the New York Times bestselling Cal Leandros series, this is a clever, sarcastic and hugely entertaining contemporary fantasy I stopped and let them circle me, first because it was intriguing and, second, because, honestly, what could they do Only knives, but all armed, and that made them even more interesting. Interesting. Fun. Play-time... Taking on bloodthirsty supernatural monsters is how Caliban and Niko Leandros make a living. But years ago - before they became a force to be reckoned with - the brothers were almost victims of a very human serial killer. Almost. Unfortunately for them, that particular depraved killer was working as apprentice to a creature far more malevolent - the legendary Spring-heeled Jack. He's just hit town. He hasn't forgotten what the Leandros brothers did to his murderous protege. He hasn't forgotten what they owe him And now they are going to pay . . . and pay . . . and pay . . .
