'One of those rare reads that stays with you long after you've put it down' (Facebook review)

When Drew Macleod’s only real friend is dragged to a ruined castle and tortured by vicious ælves he must try to save him, especially as it’s all his fault.
But he’s caught in a turf-war between Archer, the last remaining daemon and the incompetent angelii. Both seek to save humans from threats they don’t know exist, but Drew needs to find out who is hunting him personally through the dark closes and alleys of Edinburgh and why. He and Archer are helped by a feisty herbalist and a brilliant old clock-maker, but the dangers keep piling up.
