Silas Mercer has spent centuries making sure the dead are treated with dignity.
He just never expected one of them to sit up on his embalming table.
By day, Silas is a Pittsburgh funeral director. In secret, he is a necromancer-one of the few people alive who can speak to the dead, call them back, and, when necessary, command them.
Then a murdered man arrives at Mercer Funeral Home with no ghost attached to his body and one final warning:
Don't let them take my name.
When the corpse rises as something empty and violent, Silas realizes someone has discovered a way to sever the dead from their identities-and they are using a ritual Silas hoped had disappeared centuries ago.
Homicide detective Talia Rook doesn't believe in ghosts, necromancers, or impossible corpses. She believes in evidence. Unfortunately for Silas, the evidence keeps leading directly to him.
As more bodies lose their names and something begins hunting for Silas's own hand, keeping the supernatural hidden may become the least of his problems.
Because someone isn't merely experimenting on the dead.
They're preparing to bring someone back.
And they need Silas to finish the job.
BONE & IRON: THE NAMELESS DEAD is a dark urban fantasy mystery featuring necromancy, murder, dry humor, dangerous ghosts, hidden supernatural secrets, and a slow-burn romance between a centuries-old funeral director and the detective determined to uncover the truth.
