In a city that lost its magic, an angel falls in a downtown street. His wings are feathered, whole - undeniably magical - the man clearly flew, for all that he plummeted to his downfall moments after. The mystery will set Fetch - in his quest to bring magic back to his beloved city - on a journey involving necromancers, genies and shadowy secret societies. Fetch will search Sunder's wildest forests and dingiest dive bars for the answer, and when he finds it, nothing will ever be the same again.

Fetch Phillips fought on the wrong side of a war between humans and magical creatures, and his actions helped to drain the world of enchantment. Now he works on the streets of Sunder City, taking what odd jobs he can while trying to help those whose lives he ruined. His first case is to find a missing teacher. Professor Rye is a 400-year-old vampire with a heart of gold in a husk of a body. In a world without magic, most vamps have already crumbled into dust, but Fetch is happy to go looking for some dirt with pointed teeth if it gets him his drinking money.

Rumour has it that Fetch is only one who can bring magic back into the world. So when a man is murdered in a way that can only be explained as magical, Fetch is brought in on the case. A case which just might unearth things best left buried....

Once a detective, all he wants now is to run his café in peace. Sunder City is still recovering from the sudden and violent end of magic, and if one man can't solve all its problems, he can at least stop some people going hungry. But when a kid on the run shelters in Fetch's café, and a chain of gruesome murders begins among Sunder's high and mighty, trouble is brought to Fetch's door. There's a word whispered on the wind, and that word is revolution...

Fetch Phillips tiene mucho que expiar. Más de lo que la mayoría de la gente cree, o ya estaría muerto. Está en el fondo del pozo, y como último recurso acepta un trabajo para investigar la desaparición de un profesor vampiro en una escuela de barrio. Es esto o muere. La tentación de tirarse por la puerta de Ángel de su oficina se está volviendo demasiado difícil de resistir. Mientras, Sunder City esconde todo tipo de cosas en sus sombras y Fetch está a punto de encontrar un problema que podría ser demasiado grande para que él lo pueda manejar…
