Nyx has never understood why she hated zombies, she just
knew she did. However, during her job as a Night Tracker,
half-Drow Nyx realized she saw her brother, a brother she
didn't remember until the memories surfaced, taken by
zombies. Just recovered from a massive vampire attack, Nyx
is not ecstatic about dealing with zombies, but she would
rather do her job than be shuffled out of the action like
her boss attempts to do. While feeling out new allies,
talking to high-mucky-muck seers, and trying to take a
crash-course on zombie production, Nyx is also dealing with
attempting to keep her all-too-human boyfriend while
negotiating human social niceties with his family.
As always, this Night Tracker novel does an excellent job
with characterization, humor, and action.
Nyx hates Zombies. Seriously. Hates. Zombies. Ever since she
was a youngling, she’s been haunted by them. And even though
she’s a big girl now—a half-human, half-Drow private eye, to
be precise—Nyx bristles at the mere thought of the walking
dead.
Meanwhile, the corpses of humans and paranorms alike are
turning up all over New York City. Now it’s up to Nyx to
find out who—or what—is behind this series of horrific
attacks. But it’s only a matter of time before Nyx is drawn
deeper into her darkest fears…and her worst nightmare about
meeting a real, flesh-and-blood-hungry, body-snatching
Zombie comes blindingly to life. Or death…
