Riven

Carver, a sharp knife of a man, hunts the dead for a living, only now someone's hunting him.

When war breaks out, keeping Riven's ashen avenues clear of all the new spirits gets tougher. They're angry, trying to take bites out of Carver's hide. Makes taking Selena out on the town dangerous. Not that she's afraid, seeing as she's one of them, but it's hard being romantic when you're on the run from a bunch of bloodthirsty ghosts.

So when a strange spirit tells Carver he's got a solution for all of the hunter's problems, Carver listens.

Turns out all he's got to do is die.

Now, as Riven is buried in a tidal wave of angry spirits, Carver has to find out who wants him dead, and why.
