In Lynn Wingert's second novel featuring Claire Maxwell, the writer flies down to Miami Beach to interview a survivor of a vicious shark attack for her next article. And, to be perfectly honest, to get the hell out of Iowa in the middle of March. In her typical, inimitable fashion, no sooner is Claire off the plane than she's caught up in a string of bizarre deaths. So what else is new? The only bright side to the sudden flood of bodies washing up on the white sandy beaches of Florida is Lieutenant Chris Merrett, an old buddy of her brother Jack's from the police academy. As the body count rises, Chris and Claire rush from beautiful beaches to the county morgue to one of the finest houses in the city in an attempt to stop the deaths before Miami Beach is nothing but a ghost town.
Just when the love life of Iowa private detective Mike Marcus crumbles, a golden angel enters his life. The angel, it turns out, is Annie Ireland, a nomadic cult sister of the Temple of Atonement who has a dubious and dangerous ministry. Like the stray dogs soft-hearted Mike feeds every morning, he takes Annie under his wing. But hiding her from her cult and a serial killer proves to be the detective's greatest challenge. Annie's abduction back into the temple takes Mike 400 miles to his native Indiana where he pursues a kidnapper, a killer, and a self-appointed messiah named Elijah Ben Yahweh. En route, he encounters the demons and ghosts of his past.

He has been known by countless names and terrifying deeds throughout the lands of mankind-thief, magic wielder, swordsman, assassin, adventurer. But chief among those names and perhaps the most dangerous of his personae is that of Nightfall, a man-or perhaps the legendary demon himself-gifted with unique powers which any sorcerer would kill to possess.

And when this master of the night finally falls prey to a royal trap, he finds the consequences beyond even his ability to evade. Bound by sorcery and oath to guard and guide a young prince on his quest, Nightfall will need every trick and talent at his command to keep both himself and his idealistic young charge from death at the hands of unknown betrayers.
