    Summary

    Two months ago, Raymond shoved what was left of one Rebecca Owens into a cramped, upright coffin. He endured her taunts and, after drawing her bare wrist into an exposed holder, shut the wooden eye slot with a reticent sigh. A contingency plan, extra resources, but he was alone in his work once more.

    This one man act is unsustainable. The mortician once again needs to hire an assistant. He craves a human presence where his mortuary fills with demons, outnumbering him. What he gets instead is a mess that threatens to unravel every delicately balanced web of secrets, topple every wall he's built up to protect himself from the inevitable, demonic tide that's coming for his soul.
