Turns out, being the dead's most desired man sucks.
Carver's burning his days doing Guide work, patrolling Riven and helping its lost souls find their way while, back on Earth, World War One ratchets up the lives waiting for Carver's help. Problem is, those lives don't like waiting around, and when a new, angrier soul starts gathering the dead and directing them at Carver, being a Guide goes from dangerous to deadly real fast.
But why Carver, and why now? With his fellow Guides, Carver has to figure out why he's been marked and how to get the souls off his back, all while keeping Riven from spilling over. Because if the dead get back to Earth, life's going to have an unpleasant end.
Solving Carver's mystery brings the Guides through danger and disaster, both in Riven and back among the living, where forces see Carver as a fatal solution to Riven's growing problem. With enemies on all sides, Carver has to pull together unlikely allies and fast friends to try and save both himself and Riven from ruin.

A.R. Knight writes sci-fi and fantasy in the frozen north of Wisconsin. With a pair of cats keeping him company, he enjoys delving into adventures that are as much about the villain as the hero.
After getting a degree in journalism and touring the country installing healthcare software, A.R. Knight thought it would be good to get back to what he loved. So now he's got a small office and early mornings to spin whatever tales come into his imagination.
When he's not writing, A.R. Knight tends to travel anywhere he can, whether that's islands off the coast of Ecuador, the rainforest, snowboarding in the Rocky Mountains, or sipping scotch in Edinburgh. That's the nice thing about the writing life, you can take it anywhere.
