Before he died, Castor's fellow exorcist John Gittings made several calls asking for help and if Castor had answered them, John might still be alive. So when a smooth-talking lawyer comes out of nowhere to claim the remains, Castor owes it to John's unhappy ghost and even more unhappy widow to help out. If only life were that simple. A brutal murder in King's Cross bears all the hallmarks of an American serial killer supposedly forty years dead, and it takes more good sense than Castor possesses not to get involved. He's also fighting a legal battle over the body - if not the soul - of his possessed friend, Rafi, and can't shake the feeling that his three problems are related. With the help of the succubus Juliet, paranoid zombie data-fence Nicky Heath and a little judicious digging, Castor just might have a chance of fitting the pieces together before someone drops him down a lift shaft or rips his throat out. Or not...

Reviews for Dead Mens Boots (#3 Felix Castor)

'You'll be up all night finishing this one.' Richard Morgan;'Fast, fun and furious, worth it for the final joke alone.' THE GUARDIAN; 'Witty, deadpan and shudderingly noir ... Carey drives this thriller like Chandler at the wheel of a runaway hearse' DAILY EXPRESS; 'Entertaining, well-paced, intelligently plotted and full of memorable characters' THE TIMES; 'A stunning supernatural thriller ... here, I guarantee, is one of the best books you'll read this year!'
