Now, Gabriele Spocarelli has called her in to do a Necromance job for the Saint City Police Department, one Gabe had tried to do herself and failed. Now, Dante tries to raise the ghost of fellow Necromance, Christabel Moorcock. Christabel has been brutally murdered, the flesh partially flayed from the bones. It had been a horrible death; there were only parts of her body left, along with a note: "REMEMBER RIGGER HALL."

Rigger Hall was the academy Danny and Christabel had attended to learn to control their psionic gift. It had bad memories Danny thought she’d buried for good. But they all came screaming back when she made contact with Christabel’s ghost. All she got from that was an insane spirit screaming, "Remember Rigger Hall! REMEMBER EVERYTHING!"

As in Working for the Devil, Lilith Saintcrow spins a tale that you don’t want to put down. I feel uncomfortable reading about Dante Valentine’s world, where the Devil is real but God isn’t. I feel that if one of them is real, the other has to be as well. Other than that, it’s a grand fairy tale for anyone who loves fantasy. So, pick up Dead Man Rising and go on a wild ride!
