“I’m being stalked by a vengeful half-witch, my love life’s deader than I am, and now there’s a runaway vampire in my spare room. Eternity isn’t all it’s cracked up to be.” Lilith O’Reilly just wants to be left alone to run her coffee shop on a quiet Liverpool back street. But you don’t choose the undead life–the undead life chooses you. There’s something strange going on in the local cemetery, and it’s not just the sharply dressed ghost who likes to practise his stage moves amongst the gravestones. The local pharmacist is suspiciously interested in Lili’s vital signs and her cat is developing unnervingly human abilities. And now there’s a voice in her head–a voice that definitely isn’t her own. Rivers of London meets Neverwhere in this funny and fast-paced urban fantasy about friendship, family secrets, and the power of a city’s spirit. *** Praise for RED and u0026 DEAD, book one in The Netherweird “I love, love, love this book! The main character is believable and well rounded, the writing is brilliant and the world building genuinely believable […] the best urban fantasy book I have read in years” “The lazy, obvious summing up would be ‘Scouse Rivers of London’ but this book stands on its own merits. Great world-building, engaging characters and a fast, twisty plot” “A great premise and interesting cast of characters. Fans of a slow burn style of urban fantasy will love it” “…great pacing, fun and likeable characters with a great sense of humour. It’s backed up with good world building and a solid foundation of historical fact intermingled with folklore.” “…this book knocked my socks off!!” AUTHOR’S The High Gate can be read as a standalone, but you’ll get more from it if you’ve read Red and u0026 Dead first. Have fun!
