The Dead Beat: Volume 1

Death is not an alibi.

There are laws that even the dead must obey: no hijacking the bodies of the living, no possessing corpses… and never speak of the Dark.

It’s the job of police exorcist Arphallo Sirus and his murdered partner, Sam Trent, to enforce these laws. No one ever said working the Dead Beat was easy, but now it’s become nearly impossible as the ghosts and the living alike commit theft and murder in search of answers to the mysteries of life, death and what lies beyond.
