About this listen

Thomas Usher has a terrible gift. Following a car crash in which his wife and daughter are killed, he can see the recently departed, and it's not usually a pretty sight.

When he is called to investigate the violent death of the daughter of a prominent local gangster, Usher's world is torn apart once more. For the barriers between this world and the next are not as immutable as once he believed.

Gary McMahon’s short fiction has appeared in numerous acclaimed magazines and anthologies in the UK and US and has been reprinted in yearly “Best of” collections. He is the multiple-award-nominated author of the novellas Rough Cut and All Your Gods Are Dead; the collections Dirty Prayers and How to Make Monsters and Pieces of Midnight; and the novels Rain Dogs and Hungry Hearts. He has been nominated for seven different British Fantasy Awards as both author and editor.

The best way I can describe the main character is: Harry Dresden but has no idea how powerfully he might actually be. And is so beaten down by tragic events that's he's barely a functioning human being. Stumbling his way through a sick game of death, gruesome acts and cruel other worldly creatures that want to show him so much more. He fights his way through all of this with scraps of evidence and luck. All so that he can feel like less of a failure for maybe a couples minutes before another nightmare lands on his doorstep. The story itself has a tight focus on it's characters, never giving you more then you need to know. This combined with a minimal cast of characters gives the story a breakneck pace.

If your entertained by characters being challenged with the concepts of reality, and where they lie in the events unfolding around them. This is a must buy.
