Music soothes the savage beast...or so they say. But in this tome of terror, music is more than just a placebo for the masses. It is the dark divination of witches, the motivation for revenge, and the power to change the mind, soul, and body of every creature unlucky enough to hear it. In it, you'll find possessed rock stars, killer radio stations, and concerts from the depths of hell.

We return to P.I. Matthew Richter, currently a zombie, in the city of Nekropolis. In this case, he's after a wand that turns things into silver, but before he can get far in his search he's forced to use a coin to turn himself into a human. He's got one shot now to back home to his significant other for their only chance at having a kid... but of course all of Nekropolis is out to get him (or so it seems).

Meet Matt Richter. Zombie. PI. From his arrival at Nekropolis, Matt has found himself embroiled in disputes with the city's vampire lords, shapeshifters, golems and other monstrosities. Nothing has prepared him for the Dark War.

What do you get when you combine a self-willed zombie with a half-human vampire? That burning question was left unanswered at the end of Nekropolis 3, Dark War, when we learned that half vampire Devona and her zombie Private Investigator husband, Matt Richter, were expecting twins. I know you're wondering how a dead man could impregnate a half-human, half-vampire woman. The short answer is magic. The long answer is none of your goddamned business....
