Maleficium - Paperback

by Wren Archer (Author)

Non omnis moriar.

Logan McNeil wants nothing more than to escape his hometown, a place that taunts him with childhood traumas. His work in the cemetery is his only salvation, the bodies he digs up for Doctor Baird his sole source of income. Another year, and he would have enough money to run to the Highlands where he might start fresh, become a new man without the stains of the dead on his clothes and grave soil beneath his nails.

But his plans are interrupted when, during one of his midnight shifts, he sees a strange light in a nearby mausoleum. Against his better judgement, he investigates, only to discover a handsome man in the middle of resurrecting a corpse.

Barely getting away with his life after witnessing what was not meant for his eyes, Logan finds himself haunted, or rather, hunted, by something not human. And the only person who can help him is the very man who had tried to kill him that night in the mausoleum. A man who knew his way around the dead almost as well as Logan did.
