HTML:Wizard Harry Dresden must investigate his own flesh and blood when a series of killings strike Chicago’s magic practitioners in this novel in the #1 New York Times bestselling series.
Someone is targeting the members of the city’s supernatural underclass—those who don’t possess enough power to become full-fledged wizards. Some have vanished. Others appear to be victims of suicide. But now the culprit has left a calling card at one of the crime scenes—a message for Harry Dresden.
Harry sets out to find the apparent serial killer, but his investigation turns up evidence pointing to the one suspect he cannot possibly believe guilty: his half-brother, Thomas. To clear his brother’s name, Harry rushes into a supernatural power struggle that renders him outnumbered, outclassed, and dangerously susceptible to temptation.
And Harry knows that if he screws this one up, people will die—and one of them will be his brother...… (más)
Alguien tiene en el punto de mira a los practicantes de magia de Chicago, los miembros de la subclase sobrenatural que carecen del suficiente poder para convertirse en magos plenos. Varios han desaparecido. Otros parecen haberse suicidado. En el último caso, el culpable ha dejado una tarjeta de visita en el escenario del crimen, un mensaje para el mago detective Harry Dresden. Este se lanza a buscar al asesino, pero la investigación lo lleva hasta un culpable que no cree posible: Thomas, su propio hermano. Para limpiar su nombre, Dresden se implica en una disputa de poderes sobrenaturales que lo supera, se halla en una situación de inferioridad y peligrosamente susceptible a la tentación.
. . . age is always advancing and I'm fairly sure it's up to no good.
Bigots see something they expect and then they stop thinking about what is in front of them . . . It's probably how they got to be bigots in the first place.
Everyone is down on pain, because they forget something important about it: Pain is for the living. Only the dead don't feel it.
Life's easier when you can write off others as monsters, as demons, as horrible threats that must be hated and feared. The thing is, you can't do that without becoming them, just a little.
