Description
You can't keep a good wizard down — even when he wants to stay that way.
For years, Harry Dresden has been Chicago's only professional wizard, but a bargain made in desperation with the Queen of Air and Darkness has forced him into a new job: professional killer.
Mab, the mother of wicked faeries, has restored the mostly-dead wizard to health and dispatches him upon his first mission — to bring death to an immortal. Even as he grapples with the impossible task, Dresden learns of a looming danger to Demonreach, the living island hidden upon Lake Michigan, a place whose true purpose and dark power could destroy billions and land Dresden in the deepest trouble he has ever known — even deeper than being dead. How messed up is that?
Beset by his new enemies and hounded by the old, Dresden has only twenty-four hours to reconnect with his old allies, prevent a cataclysm, and do the impossible — all while the power he bargained to get but never meant to keep lays siege to his very soul.
Magic. It can get a guy killed.
