Calvin will do anything for me... except leave me alone. We were strangers, as far as I knew. He saw me once, but didn’t introduce himself like he could have. Calvin Cutler. Nice to meet you. But there’s nothing nice about Calvin Cutler. He’s ruthless and single-minded, and he zeroed in on me —a hapless target for his dark and twisted appetites. In the depths of Hell, I first looked into his sinful brown eyes, felt the greedy touch of his demanding hands for the first time. Not the last time, though. He wanted more. So much more. He wanted me, whether I wanted him or not.

Eight days to clear a dungeon that takes most parties months. The guild keeps records, and now every adventurer in Deephold knows the name Carter. A few have started asking how a Rank D ex-con and four women climb faster than anything on the books.The answer is the skill he can't explain...

Two years in a cell for a crime he didn't commit. Ninety seconds of freedom. Then two barrels of buckshot in a parking lot, and Chris Carter's first life was over. Death offers him a second one: a new world, a clean start, and five skills instead of the standard three. Carter takes the deal and takes the one skill with no description, buried in the list like a trap. Reaper's Claim. Kill something, and whatever made it dangerous becomes his. He lands with nothing in Oakhaven, a walled guild town where power is bought and sold and the cheapest soldiers are the broken ones. Three women.

That’s all incredibly tempting when living among the wild things. Where there are people though, there are complications, including the murder-y kind.
