Frostfeld - The Mourning Son

From the writer 2000AD's Judges - The Patriots comes the first book in a new thrilling urban fantasy saga!

Blood hasn't stained the cobblestones of Château d'os for over a century, but the peace of this French town has just been shattered by a homicide that defies every law of nature. When the local police find a teenager murdered by supernatural means, they have no choice but to call in the Special Inquisitorial Branch-a hard-hitting unit of trained sorcerers who deal with everything from occult threats to extra-terrestrial incursions.

One of the arriving Inquisitors is Phillip Frostfeld, the latest scion of a legendary family whose name is etched into history through duty and sacrifice. However, Frostfeld is a man on the edge, still grieving the recent death of his wife in the line of duty. As he dives into the investigation, he discovers that this isn't just a murder; it's a flashpoint in an ancient cold war between indifferent, god-like beings who treat human lives as expendable pawns.

In the shadows of the town, the past and present are about to collide in a brutal display of violence.

As blood flows and the city becomes a battleground, one question remains: can a man fueled by loss stop an ancient war before it consumes everything?

THE FIRST BOOK IN A NEW URBAN FANTASY SERIES. RECOMMENDED FOR FANS OF LAURELL K. HAMILTON'S "ANITA BLAKE: VAMPIRE HUNTER", JIM BUTCHER'S "DRESDEN FILES", AND BEN AARONOVITCH' S "RIVERS OF LONDON".
