Perfectly Dead is the second in the Homeland Security Services series. HSS agents Miracle Dunn and Abraham Fyn are sent to Phoenix to investigate the occult murder of Connor Moran. Moran--a failed science fiction author--hadn't an enemy in the world, and evidence at the site fits a frame firmly around a friend of his. And at the same time Moran was being murdered, the notes and manuscript for his new novel are stolen from his apartment. Fyn and Dunn rely on world-famous occultist Merlin Bloodstone to sort the mystery out, and the conspiracy they uncover reaches as far as the highest offices in the land.
