John Darkeson is a sorcerer in New York City who makes his living as a private investigator and police consultant. When he is called up to a crime scene of a massacre, he learns someone has been wiping out various gangs in the area. At the same time, there is a new deadly street drug on the rise that goes by the name of Deathless that's assuredly pushed by the same people committing the murders. Then, he is hired by a young woman asking him to investigate her father and his potentially shady business proceedings. He dives deep into the investigation and encounters a deadly opponent who seeks his head. During his investigation, he discovers that things are not as simple as they seem, and that drug deals and murders may just be the tip of the iceberg. He discovers that both his investigations are linked in mysterious ways and encounters a shadowy figure who is manipulating things behind the scenes. His investigation leads him into a headlong confrontation with shadowy forces, where he must confront the figure behind it all.
