    About this series


    From the author of the Nightside series

    Eddie Drood has finally cornered his archenemy after searching the galaxy end-to-end. But before Eddie can strike, Dr. DOA strands Eddie and his girlfriend, Molly Metcalf, in an alternate universe where the Drood clan have been systematically murdered.

    The key to their escape lies in this dimension’s eerie and abandoned Drood Hall. Among the ruins, Eddie and Molly discover a mysterious creature who may be able to help them get home in exchange for a favor only a Drood could honor. But Eddie must move quickly if he’s to put a stop to Dr. DOA definitively—all the while reckoning with the fatal poison spreading through his body.

      New York Times bestselling author Simon R. Green continues his Secret Histories series with debonair-yet-deadly paranormal agent Eddie Drood pulled into a hunt for a treasure worth far more than mere money… As part of a family legacy representing courage, determination, and the occasional dirty trick, Eddie Drood rather enjoys making his own rules—and breaking them. When it comes to facing down the darkest entities in creation and putting real boots to ethereal ass, he’s the best in the biz. Or at least one of the best. He thinks. That’s why he’s been summoned to the deathbed of the one and only Alexander King—a living (for now) legend in the realm of otherworldly cloak-and-dagger operations. As an independent agent, King has managed to collect quite a cache of secrets, conspiracies, and evidence worth killing for and then some. And he’s putting the whole lot up for grabs in a twisted game of intelligence, skill, and survival. Pitted against a selection of prime recruits from all over the supernatural spy game, Eddie is going to have to call on all his skills and dirty tricks, to come out ahead in the great spy game where only the quick and the cool survive. Because one of King’s prized secrets is going to help Eddie uncover a hidden threat within his own family… “Bright, fast-paced…Eddie makes a likable hero, and fans will enjoy following him through this surprisingly complex mystery.”—Publishers Weekly “Eddie gets to the bottom of things with style and a particularly cynical sense of humor. Series-spinner Green’s Drood books are fun, funny, and action-packed, and Eddie is one of his most entertaining creations.”—Booklist

      Paranormal secret agent Eddie Drood has never been one to shy away from risk. But in New York Times bestselling author Simon R. Green’s seventh Secret Histories novel, the smart-aleck spy is going to gamble far more than he can afford to lose… Eddie Drood (aka: “Shaman Bond”) is on the outs with his capricious family. Nothing too disturbing, mind you. Just some old grudges, long-simmering lies, and the occasional assassination attempt, So, in the name of his own longevity, Eddie’s taking his talents freelance (a man’s got to earn a living). But earning a living can get a lot closer to dying than Eddie would like. Under the auspices of the Department of the Uncanny, Eddie and his witchy love Molly Metcalf have been assigned to attend the Casino Infernale—a gathering of the most powerful, wealthy, and sinister supernatural super criminals hosted by the ever-enigmatic Shadow Bank. Eddie and Molly are to infiltrate the affair, toss some wrenches into the works, and take down the Bank once and for all. The stakes are high, the competition lethal. And while Eddie might be able to buy his way into this game, he won’t be able to buy his way out to save his life…

      My name is Eddie Drood, and the Powers That Be have taken everything... Eddie Drood has lost everyone important to him. His parents mysteriously disappeared and no one else in his family seems to care. His beloved uncle, the last family member he could trust, has just passed away. And now his girlfriend, Molly Metcalf, is missing. On his own and without the protection of the Drood family, Eddie pieces together the truth of their disappearances: both his parents and Molly have been kidnapped by the mysterious Powers That Be. Eddie has to break a few Drood family rules and a few ancient treaties to follow them. He’ll have to risk everything to win their freedom, or lose their lives -- and their souls -- forever.
