About this eBook

John Taylor is the name. I work the Nightside. Only in that dark heart of London where it’s always three A.M., where human and inhuman can feed their darkest desires, do I feel at home. Probably because I was born there.
           
What I do is find things—people, objects—and in this case, the truth about the origins of the Nightside.
           
That’s what Lady Luck has hired me to investigate. But the more I dig, the more I discover, not about the Nightside but about the great question in my life: exactly who—and what—was my long-vanished mother.
           
Paying jobs are one thing. Personal quests are another. And I’ve been warned that uncovering the facts about dear old mum could be a very bad thing, not just for the Nightside but for all of existence.
           
Still I can’t stop…I’m John Taylor. Finding things is who I am. It’s what I do. Whatever the consequences…

This installment in the story of John Taylor resolves many if the mysteries of his past and future while opening up many more questions. It is a very good addition to the story line and is solidly a part of the overarching story line that has been developing slowly (and almost invisibly) in the earlier novels. The fate of the succubus and her lover are worth it alone for reading this novel. The rest of the book easily holds up to the standards set in the earlier books. More than worth the read.

Reading this book made me want to read sharper than a serpent's tooth like a physicist wants to meet Newton or Einstein.

I liked the series but this is where it started its downward spiral.
