A gritty urban fantasy crime thriller with a supernatural dating app, a soul-hunting killer, and a case that leads straight to Hell.
Swipe right. End up dead.
After three bodies surface in the Hudson River in three weeks, detectives Leery Oriscoe and Dru Nogan catch the case. Nothing connects the victims until the detectives discover they all used Sinder, the online dating app catering to people with a taste for supernatural women.
There’s only one problem. Lucifer owns Sinder.
The app runs on a proprietary mix of devilry and technology, and the Dark Lord doesn’t like people poking around in his business, even if his favourite niece is asking questions. Meanwhile, something out there is swiping its suitors right into the Hudson.
When Dru and the Devil lock horns, will it fall to Leery to track down the Silkie Stalkings?
Silkie Stalkings is Book Four in the Claw & Warder series, perfect for readers who love supernatural police procedurals, paranormal courtroom drama, sharp gallows humour, and urban fantasy in the vein of Jim Butcher and Ben Aaronovitch.
