Nightside

Author: Simon R. Green

A superb mix of suspense, humor, fantasy, horror, and romance. A blend of Raymond Chandler and Jim Butcher. This one is a detective noir along the lines of a Harry Dresden novel (Jim Butcher actually provides a referral for the Nightside books) , but with an altogether different premise. John Taylor is a down-and-out detective with a â€œknackâ€ for finding things, including people. Now heâ€™s got his hardest case yet: to solve the disappearance of a missing woman. To do so, he must descend into the Nightside â€“ an otherwordly secret realm in the dark heart of London, where time and place have no meaning; a place where itâ€™s always 3 am, a place where something dark is always lurking around the corner; a place that even rats flee; a place where reality and horror merge.
