Product Description

A supernatural detective mystery with a hellhound killer, cursed magic, and a case of greed and deception. It’s a dog-eat-dog world. When wealthy magister Richard Brook turns up dead in DeWitt Clinton Park, witnesses claim a demonic dog chased him through the early morning fog. Detective Leery Oriscoe, a werewolf investigator with New York’s Supernatural Inquisitors Squad, and his partner Dru Nogan, a half-succubus warder with connections in Hell, catch the case. The choice is elementary, really. As Leery digs for bones, he and Dru uncover a curse laid on the Brook family by a disgruntled warlock and the greed of Brook’s cocky magister business partner, a man with the skills to summon a Hound of Hell. With Dru working her connections in Gehenna and Leery following the trail on the ground, the detectives must eliminate the impossible and see what remains. Can they uncover enough truth to arrest a Sure ’Lock? Sure ’Lock is Book Eight in the Claw & Warder series, perfect for readers who love supernatural police procedurals, paranormal courtroom drama, sharp gallows humour, and urban fantasy in the vein of Jim Butcher and Ben Aaronovitch. ___________________________________________________________________ Praise for the Claw & Warder series: ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ A supernatural version of Law and Order ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ The perfect blend of mythology and procedural ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ The characters practically leap off the page ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Filled with snark, coffee, murder, and courtroom drama ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ I love the growing relationship between Dru and Leery ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ I couldn’t put it down

Critical Acclaim for CLAW & WARDER: ★★★★★ “[T]he 'other world' is swarming with their own problems to keep their side under control in New York. I’m no stranger to Erik Henry Vick’s universe as I’m a fan of The Bloodletter Saga. Vick’s intriguing, ghoulish, fast-paced plot and solid characterization are as entertaining as I expected. There are ample thrills, chills, and fun to satisfy readers' appetites. The dialogue and prose generate the entertaining moments and the degree of tension best suited to launch the next twist…yet more proof of Erik Henry Vick’s storytelling expertise in the supernatural world.”--Lit Amri, Readers' Favorite Reviews ★★★★★ “I enjoyed the amalgamation of so many types of supernaturals… The banter between the characters was brilliantly executed, portraying different levels of complex relationships. Sometimes I couldn't help but grin at a well-spun conversation, let alone how the creatures' unique traits or weaknesses are evoked to further the investigation. I enjoyed the third-person narrative and how the high-pressure roles were portrayed… The characters were brilliantly portrayed.“--K.J. Simmill, Readers' Favorite Reviews ★★★★★ “The idea that there are two simultaneous types of society working side-by-side was a fascinating premise… The characters are fully overdrawn, as is
