A dark fantasy of fallen angels, desperate rituals, and a series of occult murders-set in the seedy underbelly of Waterdeep

Jinn is an angel trapped in mortal flesh, sent down from the heavens to fight, die, and be reincarnated endlessly in the war against evil. But over the years, revenge supplanted justice.

Now he lives only to wreck vengeance-whatever the cost-on the dark angel who killed his lover. A series of brutal occult murders, left like breadcrumbs for him to follow, lead Jinn straight to Asmodeus-an invitation to a final battle for the soul of Waterdeep. But will Jinn still be able to choose the path of justice when he is so close to his enemy, after lifetimes of failure?

Circle of Skulls is the sixth book in a series of standalone novels set in Waterdeep.
