An action romance series about a necromancer by the name of Ward De'Ath, who is hired to temporarily revive a rich man's daughter, Celia Carlyle. She, actually being the daughter of the work's version of a mobster, guilt trips the young necromancer into helping her find out who killed her before the revival spell wears out. Ward manages to perform a much more powerful spell to the point that he isn't sure whether she is alive or dead. After this, we find that Celia is not only the daughter of a powerful man, but also an assassin raised from birth who considers killing Ward after he stops being useful.
The series goes on to include evil necromancers, as opposed to our protagonist, as well as vampire-like {{mooks}}, all in a CrapsackWorld. Significant character development happens as Celia grows fond of Ward as they face threats all around.
