"We'll take an airship to Tarenarla and set up a fortune-telling business on the beach, raise brown babies and make love until we're old."
Gareth Knight is a retirement specialist for the Mission. He specialises in shape shifters, ones who've killed.
Yeah, he kills people, but he's one of the good guys, right? He never retires an innocent shifter. His girlfriend, Starkie, is evidence of that. That's what he thought at least.
His last retirement wasn't what he thought it was. Instead of a serial-killing doctor harvesting young women for body parts, it was something different. Now, a retirement specialist from a rival agency after him. Uncertain about whether he's a good guy or bad guy, he must negotiate the strange underworld of Wildemarsh to find a truth. Not the truth, his truth, and maybe find something else he needs, like a good cup of coffee.
_____
Coarse language, supernatural themes and violence as well as a strange and delightful cast of characters.
