CUSTOMER REVIEWS:
Things are never as they seem. I’m starting to pick up your style now. When you’re halfway through the book, what you are guessing as the end, is way off! When you think its done, there is more. Really hard to guess whats next even. Kept me reading until 5am!

DESCRIPTION:
Dante’s Fool { novel } London, the near future, a courier who’s just descended from orbit is intercepted by armed-robbers on a busy motorway. The robbers get away with the package but it’s not what they expected and leads to an enigmatic deep-space mining corporation hunting them down, with brutal consequences. Also tracking them down is a hard-nosed Detective Sergeant from the Metropolitan Serious Crimes Division. The case lands in his lap when the police computer system concludes there is a link between the robbery and an on-going case he’s investigating: the ritualistic mutilation and murder of men and woman by perpetrators who appear to be fulfilling some kind of occult ceremony.
What happens next is a journey through a personal Hell, as the Detective discovers there are forces out there that will do anything to see him fail, and entities that exist beyond the ordinary planes of mundane reality. He doesn’t just have to fight to succeed and survive; he has to risk his very soul. Shocking revelations follow betrayal and bloodshed. Nothing will ever be the same again.
Within this hunt, one woman becomes the focus: the daughter of a wealthy movie industry icon who has long turned to designer drugs and crime. She becomes the key to unlocking the biggest secret of all. The identity and motives behind a seemingly god-like computer hacker: Dante.
David J Rodger’s trademark unforgiving rendering of harsh reality, and relentless narrative pace, are here in palm-sweating abundance, delivered in a novel that focuses an uncomfortable light on the demonic entities that cling to our indulgent existence – and their bonds with the nameless Outer Gods of the Cthulhu Mythos.
