Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

Most of Charles's customers have rats. The unlucky ones have demons.For fifteen years, Charles has worked the hidden side of pest control. He knows what claw marks mean, how to read a crawlspace, and which stains require more than bleach. Ordinary people see an exterminator in a battered van. The guild sees a reliable hunter.His twelve-year-old daughter sees a father who has spent fourteen months treating grief like another job to survive.Then demon blood gets on Charles's work jacket, and Ellie touches it.At first the changes are small: sunlight hurts, familiar food turns foul, sounds travel too clearly through walls. Soon Ellie is stronger than she should be-and frightened of what her body will do next.The guild's doctrine leaves no room for hope. Once a human begins to turn, the human is gone. Protocol is simple: find the creature and kill it.Charles packs the van and takes Ellie into the Mojave. He tells his friends they're taking a summer road trip and chasing a legend: the Great White, a demon no hunter has managed to catch. What he needs is an answer. Something that explains why his daughter is changing-and why she is still his daughter.But the hunters he's hiding her from are the people who know him best. They check in. They offer help.And Charles knows exactly what that help will look like if they discover the truth.
