Publisher Description
A hang-onto-your-hat-and-heart thriller of triumph and tragedy that barrels along at F. Paul Wilson's trademark breakneck pace, Harbingers
It starts off so simply: Jack, still feeling down after the tragic events of Infernal, is hanging in Julio's when a regular named Timmy asks him for help. His teenage niece has been missing since this morning; the police say it's too early to worry, but Timmy knows something bad has happened. Jack says he'll put the word out on the street. This innocent request triggers a chain of seemingly coincidental events that lead Jack into the darkest days of his life.
As has become evident in the series, Jack has been singled out, unwillingly, as the champion of one of the two supernatural forces contending for control of all human life on Earth. Neither of these forces are good or evil, just dangerous and amoral. They value and notice individual humans about as much as we do mosquitos.
Jack is desperate . . . and the last thing you want to do is make Jack desperate. That's when things begin to blow up and people begin to die.
At the Publisher's request, this title is being sold without Digital Rights Management Software (DRM) applied.
PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
This 10th appearance of Wilson's outside-the-box paladin (after 2005's Infernal) provides everything that fans of this excellent and frequently horrific series have come to expect. Repairman Jack, the New York City paranormal "fix-it guy," is approached by a regular at Julio's bar to find his missing teenage niece, Caitlin. Jack tracks her down, but not before some other apparently well-intentioned agents rescue her and discover Jack in the process. Caitlin's rescuers believe that Jack is the champion of the otherworldly force opposing a supernatural menace known as the Adversary, a role that Jack admits he has played in the past. As the Adversary begins picking off Jack's new allies, Jack's girlfriend and unborn child are endangered, but by whom is unclear. In this brisk update on the series, Jack must make some difficult decisions as he learns that the enemy of his enemy is not necessarily his friend.
