Death Masks is the fifth novel in Jim Butcher\'s beloved Dresden Files series, following Chicago\'s only professional wizard-for-hire, Harry Dresden. Equal parts hard-boiled detective fiction and urban fantasy, the series has earned a devoted global following for its sharp wit, relentless pacing, and richly imagined supernatural world.
In this installment, Harry finds himself juggling three explosive cases at once: the theft of the Shroud of Turin, a deadly duel with a Red Court vampire, and a series of gruesome murders that may be connected to a group of fallen angels known as the Denarians. As the stakes escalate to apocalyptic levels, Harry must draw on every resource — magical and otherwise — to survive.
- Features the Knights of the Cross and the Denarian villains, fan-favourite elements of the broader series arc
- Blends supernatural thriller, noir mystery, and dark fantasy
- Part of a long-running series praised by Entertainment Weekly, Publishers Weekly, and Booklist
- Originally published in 2003; this is the first Roc hardcover printing (November 2009)
Ideal for fans of urban fantasy, paranormal mystery, and character-driven action fiction.
