"Death has come to the city of Portents. Dozens have fallen before a mysterious menace hiding among them. Their only connection is the grisly condition of their bodies--hollowed-out chasms where their eyes used to be. Setting aside the aging case on his wife's murder, Detective Greg Loren has returned to the city with the task of stopping the bearer of the Medusa coin--an artifact with power over Death himself--from continuing to slaughter the people of Portents. Soriya, no longer able to control the enigmatic Greystone, grapples with the decision to forge ahead in the case on her own, leaving Loren behind. But without the two counterbalancing each other, Death may be the force that levels them both. Lou Paduano's The Medusa Coin, the third exciting installment in the Greystone series, promises to raise the stakes to even greater heights, offering glimpses of a darker side to Portents readers never imagined." -- back cover
