Dead Last

An Intense Urban Fantasy Horror Novel

De: Samuel Brower

Narrado por: Virtual Voice

He’s Got Nothing to Lose… Except His Life (Again).

Frank Xavier used to take punches for a living—first as a boxer, then as a stuntman. Now? He’s just another washed-up ex-con scraping by in Detroit, a city that’s long since forgotten him. But when a routine mugging leaves him dead on an operating table for three minutes, Frank wakes up with a new problem—he can see the things that shouldn’t exist.

Demons. Ghosts. The restless dead. They’re everywhere. And they know he can see them.

Before the visions drive him insane, Frank gets an offer he can’t refuse from Raina Whatley, a foul-mouthed mortician with secrets of her own. In exchange for helping him control his newfound sight, Frank becomes her personal bodyguard. But Raina doesn’t need protection from street thugs—she needs a guardian to protect her from the supernatural crime syndicates that run Detroit from the shadows.

Raina is the last of Whatley House, a once-powerful bloodline of magic-users, and every sorcerer, witch, and dark creature in the city wants her dead. As Frank gets dragged into a world of occult power struggles, ancient magics, and an army of soulless thralls, he realizes one thing:

Detroit’s underworld is a hell of a lot worse than he thought. And if he and Raina can’t figure out who’s pulling the strings, they won’t just end up dead last—they’ll end up dead for good.

A gritty, action-packed urban fantasy perfect for fans of Richard Kadrey, Mike Carey, and classic noir with a supernatural twist, Dead Last delivers a brutal punch of magic, mystery, and mayhem in the heart of Motor City.

Detroit’s ghosts are real. The magic families are ruthless. And Frank Xavier just got his ass dragged into a war he never saw coming.

Be Patient

The story starts off slowly, but gets better. Good action once the story gets going. The virtual voice narration was not good. It sometimes pronounced the same word in various ways making the story a little confusing at times. I would still like to hear the next installment if there is one.
