His Name Was Death
by J. Eric Hance
Shouldn’t life get easier when you die?
Henry Richards is having a really bad day. It started with his own murder, and it’s gone steadily downhill from there. Forced into a new life as the Grim Reaper, he must collect the souls of the dying—stubborn, lost and dangerous souls that don’t want to be collected.
When Henry is sent to collect the soul of a middle-aged housewife, he decides to save her instead; but ignoring the rules has dire consequences, and he soon finds his name on an assassin’s hit list. Isolated from his friends and family, he turns to the only help he can: the seductive demoness that lives across the hall, a big black cat with an even bigger attitude, and three mysterious goddesses in white.
But will they be enough to help Henry stop the assassin before every name is crossed off his list, or will Henry’s enemies manage to kill him…again?
Only if he dies this time, there are no second chances. This time, Henry will stay dead forever.
