The Hungry Dark: Silas Salt Series Book Two

Children are disappearing into the shadows. Their parents are going insane. Silas Salt's first case as Savannah's occult protector leads him to a corrupted angel of death—a psychopomp broken by millennia of grief, now 'saving' children by stealing them into a gray realm before suffering can touch them. To stop the Shepherd, Silas makes a deal with his father's ghost. Richard will teach him the darkest magic the Salt family knows. The price: one conversation. But every spell Richard teaches makes the darkness more seductive. And some children can't be saved. Not all victories are clean. Not all heroes stay pure.
