About This Item
New York: Spectra Books (Bantam), 2009. First edition, Hardcover, Near Fine in Near Fine dust jacket,. Steve Stone. New York: Spectra Books (Bantam):, 2009. First edition, Hardcover, Near Fine in Near Fine dust jacket, 276 pp.<br/> Cover artwork by: Steve Stone "He's lucky to be alive. That's what everyone tells him. Except Tristopolitan police lieutenant Donal Riordan doesn't feel lucky and he isn't really alive. In one horrific moment not even death can erase from memory, Donal lost the woman he loved even as her ultimate sacrifice saved his life. Now it's literally her heart that beats in his chest and her murder that Donal 'lives' to avenge. While being a zombie cop has its upsides-including inhuman reaction time and razor-sharp senses-Donal's new undead status makes him the target of Tristopolis's powerful Unity Party, whose startling rise to power is built on a platform of antizombie paranoia and persecution. The Party is no friend, to be sure-but it's the secret cabal known as the Black Circle and their stranglehold on the city's elite that consume Donal's black heart. For at the center of this ring of evil is the man responsible for his lover's murder-a man Donal has already had to kill once before."
