Tenebroso - Tony Fuentes;C.S. Kading;Finley Hisloop

Care to make a deal?

On the darkest nights of the month, when the moon turns her back on the world, something rides.

It leaves hearts in the hands of the dead. It trades in souls. It has no mercy for the wicked - and no patience for those who get in its way.

They call it Tenebroso.

Rosa Delgado doesn't believe in monsters. She believes in evidence, in motive, in the rational cruelty of human nature. What she cannot explain is why every victim she's found has a hole in their chest and a single bite taken from what's left. She is outside her jurisdiction, out of favors, and running out of time. But she has never walked away from a case, and she is not about to start now.

Javi Castaneda made a bargain at a crossroads on the worst night of his life. He was drowning in grief and rage, and the thing that found him offered him exactly what he needed - power, purpose, and the promise of justice for the people who burned his world to ash. What it didn't tell him was what justice would cost. Or what he would have to become to collect it.

Inquisitor Yolanda Torres has been hunting them both for months. She knows what the creature is, what it does to the men it inhabits, and what happens when it's finished with them. She carries silver weapons and the weight of a faith that is starting to crack at the seams. Somewhere in this rotten city, a noble house built on blood and prayer is hiding the man who started all of this - and Tenebroso is almost done.

The moonless nights are here. All three of them are out of time.

Some debts can only be paid in blood. Some bargains change everything. And some monsters, before the end, make you wonder if the world deserved saving at all.

Deals have been struck...and a debt must be paid.
