In the first book of this supernatural drama series, Clay Donovan is forced to confront a haunting choice that requires a chilling sacrifice.

Clay Donovan thought dying to save his wife would be the end of his story. Instead, it's just the beginning.

When the small-town cop sacrifices himself for Brynn, he expects peace?maybe even a hero's farewell. But fate has other plans. His partner, Jones?a reaper hiding in plain sight?reveals a grim truth: it was Brynn's time to die, not his. Instead of moving on, Clay is granted a fleeting chance to set things right. But if he fails? Pandore awaits?a purgatory where lost souls are broken down and remade into something else entirely.

Now existing in the space between life and death, Clay is guided by Darcey, a sly fiend who delights in his predicament. As he struggles to protect his loved ones from forces beyond the veil, Clay must uncover buried truths, confront the consequences of his choices, and fight to escape the fate that's closing in.

Will he find redemption, or will Pandore's shadows claim him forever?
