DELVING: OBLIGATIONS

And so it begins...

Jessica Stahl, a Pulitzer Prize-winning reporter, is summoned to the scene of a strange crime in a part of Chicago known as Angel Eyes. A well-dressed young man has been badly beaten and left for dead. He has no identification and no memory. As Jessica struggles to fill in the missing pieces of John Doe's life, she'll come closer and closer to understanding the real way the world works; she'll come closer and closer to understanding what it means to Delve... and she may not live to tell about it.


"Fur and feathers. Fur and feathers.
Fur and feathers."



Marissa Graff is one of the best Junior Delvers her mentor has ever seen. Rich, beautiful, and talented - at nineteen, she should be on top of the world, but a strange storm is brewing in her grandfather's estate, a storm that could destroy the Graff family line for all eternity, and only Marissa possesses the skills and inclination to avert total disaster.


Welcome to the world of "Delving."


"From the mind of Scott F. Falkner comes a breathtaking tale of two families on a colossal collision course with catastrophe. With equal parts fantasy, horror, romance, and adventure, Delving: Obligations is a disturbing epic that will keep you guessing and gasping until the final page."


"You have no idea how
the world really works..."


"There are no shortage of young writers chomping at the bit these days, clambering to get a space on your shelves. Some of them have promise, some don't. Such is the way of things. I'm here to tell you that having just devoured Delving: Obligations, it's quite apparent that Scott Falkner fits into the former category. Delving is an ambitious work, full of amazing ideas, engaging characters, and sweeping sections of dazzling prose. Keep your eye on this guy. We're going to be seeing a lot more of him in the future."
