In a world dominated by sleek yet frightening winged Reapers and tall, imposing, horned Demons, it's all a poor Souled can do to keep up. For Chance Poe, his life constantly toes the line between normal Souled society and the complex affairs of Demons and souls, thanks to his position as a secretary at the Darkenhall Soul Affairs Office.
Even in this outlandish currency system, there are some hard rules that can't be broken. No one Souled can be in possession of more than four souls at any one time, making 'four soul account holders' valued clients of Soul Affairs Offices. Chance Poe can list every four soul holder for the Darkenhall Soul Affairs Office by name, and is rather proud of himself for being able to do so. However, when documentation for such a Souled appears out of the blue, Chance and his Demon employer, Mr. Ambrose, are left feeling stumped... and suspicious of foul play.
Neither Souled nor Demon could have imagined how the ensuing investigation would push their tentative working relationship to the extreme, with danger around every corner from the overbearing Reaper laws and devious criminals alike. When the stress and pressures of the situation become nearly too much to bear, even Mr. Ambrose's perfect composure is tested and Chance finds himself caught between safety, violence, crime, justice and the fleeting spark of potential yet seemingly impossible romance.
The Demon Of Darkenhall Lane is Oskar Leonard's sixth novel and focuses on the intricacies of the fantastical hierarchy within Marlier, where Demons are in control of the most valuable currency of all: your soul. Mystery, romance and paperwork meld together in this intriguing narrative set against the backdrop of a highly prejudicial and segregated society.
