No One Wields Guilt like a Jewish Mother… Unless it’s a Jewish Aunt…
Bram Gold became a Courser-a supernatural hunter-for-hire-after his parents were killed twelve years ago by a golem run amuck. Now the person responsible wants to hire Bram.
It’s happening again. This time a golem has been sighted at the synagogue where Bram’s Aunt Esther serves as rabbi-and which has been targeted by thieves and vandals. And just like a dozen years ago, the powerful golem is out of control.
Can Bram corner the creature and put a stop to its spree before someone else’s family is torn asunder?

The next book in a new series of urban fantasy thrillers taking place in the Boogie-Down Bronx from best-selling, award-winning author Keith R.A. De Candido.
เกี่ยวกับผู้แต่ง
Keith R.A. De Candido was born in what is now the Wakefield campus of Montefiore Hospital in the Bronx. He attended Cardinal Spellman High School and Fordham University, both also in the Bronx, and has lived in the Boogie Down for all but one decade of his life. In 2009 and 2010, he worked for the U.S. Census Bureau, involved in dozens of different operations throughout the Bronx. So writing an urban fantasy series taking place in the northernmost of the five boroughs is a particular thrill.He introduced Bram Gold in the short story ‘Under the King’s Bridge’ in the 2011 anthology Liar Liar, and the next book in Bram’s series, Feat of Clay, will also be released by e Spec Books. He’s told tales of other Coursers in the Systema Paradoxa novella All-the-Way House and in short stories in Bad Ass Moms and Devilish and Divine.His other work includes a long-running series of fantasy police procedurals published by e Spec Books, the latest of which is Phoenix Precinct; a cycle of urban fantasy stories set in Key West, Florida, collected in Ragnarok and Roll and Ragnarok and a Hard Place, both published by Plus One Press; and the new Supernatural Crimes Unit urban fantasy series, forthcoming from Weird Tales Presents. He’s also got an extensive résumé of media tie-in fiction, having written novels, short fiction, and comic books in more than thirty licensed universes, from Alien to Zorro, the latest of which includes the Resident Evil comic book Infinite Darkness: The Beginning and short stories in Star Trek Explorer. In 2009, he was given a Lifetime Achievement Award from the International Association of Media Tie-in Writers, which means he never needs to achieve anything ever again.When he’s not writing, Keith is an editor (for clients both personal and corporate), a martial artist (he achieved his fourth-degree black belt in karate in 2021, and he regularly teaches karate to kids), an avid New York Yankees fan, and probably some other stuff he can’t remember due to the lack of sleep.
