When a soul comes due and the owner refuses to give it up, Marquise Jackson retrieves it for his mistress by any means necessary. Marquise is a Nightmare, a condemned soul forged into an infernal warhorse to serve as a hitman to the Gorgon Euryale, a fallen angel.
But their arrangement has gone stale.
Marquise resigns himself to a life of servitude, until he bumps into Selma Lee Williams, Esquire. A virtuoso in an upscale Washington DC law firm, Selma is investigating the violent murders of her parents, civil rights activists. Hampered by incomplete police reports, sealed court documents, and deliberate attempts to cover up the truth, it will take a miracle to bring the perpetrators to justice.
A miracle...or a wily Nightmare.
From the elite high society of the nation's capitol to the perilous depths of Hell itself, Marquise will need all of his hellish talents to keep Selma safe as she dig up answers to a twenty-year old mystery that might shatter her world.
