Chicago wizard Harry Dresden gets a taste of the dead life in this
novel in the #1 New York Times bestselling series.
In his life, Harry's been shot, stabbed, sliced, beaten, burned,
crushed, and tortured. And after someone puts a bullet through his chest
and leaves him to die in the waters of Lake Michigan, things really
start going downhill.
Trapped between life and death, he learns that his friends are in
serious trouble. Only by finding his murderer can he save his friends
and move on--a feat which would be a lot easier if he had a body and
access to his powers. Worse still are the malevolent shadows that roam
Chicago, controlled by a dark entity that wants Harry to suffer even in
death.
Now, the late Harry Dresden will have to pull off the ultimate trick
without using any magic--or face an eternity as just another lost
soul...
