Tempered Throne Ray Owen

Stewart Finney's high-risk lifestyle takes a spin into the bizarre when he encounters the Tempered Throne. Then with the guidance of a pushy little blackbird, he meets a retired Hollywood actress, an Elvis-impersonating chauffeur, a scraggly homeless boy named Pig, and ultimately, an enchanting beauty to whom he is hopelessly drawn. When two acquaintances are murdered in the city, Stewart knows he is next. He tries to find his killer before the killer finds him, but in the meantime Stewart must confront his disreputable past. In his bleakest moment he realizes that he is and always has been in the company of angels.
