Andreas kills demons. The one inside him makes sure of it.

Cursed with the Deathchaser-a demon bound to his soul-Andreas walks the blood-soaked line between hunter and monster. In an Empire where demons serve Rome and Christians burn on crosses, he's neither savior nor saint. He's a weapon pointed at the darkness.

Until his mentor Emidius is accused of the unthinkable: consorting with the very demons he trained Andreas to destroy.

It's a setup. Andreas knows it. But proving Emidius's innocence means facing a demon whose hatred has simmered since before Rome was an empire-and whose power could shatter what's left of Andreas's fragile faith.

With Lucia, Emidius's fiercely loyal daughter, at his side, Andreas plunges into a web of heresy, ancient evil, and betrayals that reach into the highest echelons of both Heaven and Hades.

In a world where faith is a death sentence and demons walk as conquerors, redemption comes with a body count.

Beneath the Mire-where sword and sorcery meets the brutal edge of early Christianity.

For readers who devoured The Witcher, Berserk, and Vampire Hunter D.
