    The Book of Demons, the much-anticipated sequel to The Book of Souls, finds Jack Kelly in the fight of his life. This time, he's not battling ghosts. His nemesis is the shapeshifting necromancer, Mr. Philips, who inhabits both the world of the living and the world of the dead. 
    Ghost-touched teen Jack Kelly returns in this polished urban fantasy/horror sequel to Moore’s The Book of Souls. At times an intriguing mystery, at others a chilling thriller, The Book of Demons offers a sensational stroll through the hustle and bustle of an inventively paranormal version of 80s New York City. Jack’s development throughout is an adventurous, if spooky, coming of age story that will thrill and at times scare readers of classic urban fantasy and YA series... — Booklife Reviews 
    When Mr. Philips discovers a powerful, cursed painting whose magic he can use for personal gain, he will stop at nothing to acquire it…including murder. 
    Before he can get his hands on it, the painting goes missing and its artist is found dead. Enraged, Mr. Philips vows to hunt it down. But someone else finds it first: Jack, a teenage mystic who understands the painting’s tremendous power and would do anything to keep Mr. Philips from harnessing it. 
    Along with two unexpected allies—a non-verbal autistic child and the spirit of a dead nun—Jack battles to keep the painting away from Mr. Philips. But as the stakes rise along with the body count, their epic battle for possession of the painting may cost Jack everything and everyone he loves.

    They arrive alive. They always leave dead. 
    But before they go, they tell me everything. 
    My name’s Jack Steen, night nurse in an asylum for the criminally insane—where the walls hum with secrets and the dying don’t go quietly. My job isn’t to save them. It’s to listen. 
    Every night, I take their last words—their confessions—and carry them like ghosts stitched beneath my skin. Some call me a monster for it. Some call me their last friend. 
    Me? I just call it a shift that never ends. 
    Inside these walls, you’ll hear four of the confessions that still keep me awake: 
    Origins and Death – how it all started, and the inmate whose dying wish dragged me into the dark. 
    The Dying Kind – a man who believed love was the truest weapon. 
    A Killer Recipe – a baker who mixed poison, guilt, and devotion into every batch. 
    The Angel Maker – a nurse who gave mercy to those who never asked for it… until her own sins came calling. 
    I record these stories so you can hear them—so you’ll understand what kind of world breathes after midnight. 
    Because in here, it’s not the screams that haunt me. 
    It’s the ones who whisper. 
    Only Jack Knows: Origins to Angels — Notes from the Night Nurse. True confessions. True monsters. And one man who listens to them all.
