Synopsis

"Lauren Beukes meets Neil Gaiman" in this twisted urban fantasy about a high school rebel, his bounty hunter companion, and their high-stakes adventures through Cape Town's supernatural underworld (WIRED)

Baxter Zevcenko's life is pretty sweet. He's making a name for himself as the kingpin of his smut-peddling high-school syndicate, the other gangs are staying out of his business, and he's dating the girl of his dreams, Esme.

But when Esme gets kidnapped, things start to get seriously weird, and the only man drunk enough to help is a bearded, booze-soaked, supernatural bounty hunter that goes by the name of Jackson 'Jackie' Ronin.

Plunged into the increasingly bizarre landscape of Cape Town's supernatural underworld, Baxter and Ronin team up to save Esme. On a journey that takes them through the realms of impossibility, they must face every conceivable nightmare to get her back, including the odd brush with the Apocalypse.
