Nameless: The Mortal Dead Book 1
Master thief Danny Kalani steals from the rich to give to himself. No one said anything about dispatching demons. The secret to Danny's success is his ability to see and control ghosts. Now, after a long career, he's decided he might be ready to leave his life as a thief. So during one last job with the aid of his spectral accomplice, he pilfers a priceless present he’s sure will charm the sexy model he's been pursuing. But when his larcenous gift gets him kidnapped by an elite team of paranormal hunters, he’s swept up in an all-out war against a demonic invasion. With his comfortable retirement suddenly dead and buried, Danny learns his abilities are good for more than simple robbery. But when he’s pitted against a powerful possessed woman who flings fire from her hands, he wishes he’d quit while he was still ahead… Can Danny overcome his own self-interest and battle evil before the world goes to Hell? Nameless is the ghoulish first book in The Mortal Dead supernatural thriller series. If you like sarcastic protagonists, spine-tingling foes, and twists and turns that keep you guessing, then you’ll love David Delaney’s fast-paced chiller. Buy Nameless to tame your spirits today! "It's got a Sixth Sense meets Ghostbusters with a small dash of James Bond vibe."

About the author
David Delaney
31 books67 followersDavid Delaney has been telling stories since he was a little kid. Of course, many of those early stories were told to get him out of whatever trouble he had gotten himself into. (But if his mom is reading this, he never lied – honest.)
As an adult, David continued telling stories, but a specialized kind of story called - The Television Promo (basically the TV show version of a movie trailer). If little kid David had known that grown up David would spend his days working on hit shows such as The Simpsons, 24 and Bones he would have totally spazzed out.
Now, David continues his joy of storytelling with the Paragon Society, a supernatural thriller series wherein battle mages and shapeshifters clash with people-eating-demon-women (among other nasties) over the fate of the Human race.

Another great series from Mr. Delaney!
If you haven't read his previous series, you should! The characters in all of his books are likeable and draw you in, this new series is no different in that aspect. I really liked Danny and Gwen is a riot, I look forward to seeing what this group gets up to in the following books. A totally different story than his Orson series but equally entertaining😉

Introducing a ghost master
This is a very interesting take on ghosts and demons. The main character is a thief who owes his success due to his ability to see and affect ghosts. While bringing in knock offs of a certain group of rich sisters waa a bit of allies, the overall story is enjoyable and it will be interesting to see the tech and supernatural growth of the characters.

Delaney
I've read all of David's books and each one brings a new and interesting aspect to the supernatural/paranormal! His books aren't very long but are crammed full of interesting characters and bad guys along with fast driven plots with spooky and exciting action.

Debut
I Have followed this author since the book orson an his new character is no less awesome! I like the fact he is not so squeaky clean an you see him mature as the book progresses.

Great start to this series
Characters were very relatable and the writing is intriguing and keeps you wondering what's next. Loved the characters if Danny with his control of the dead. While not physically overpowered and seems to go with the flow is nice to have a protagonist that's fairly normal and had made decisions that anyone in his shoes would probably make. I look forward to more if this series and hope it'll tie into the paragon society but will still be reading without the connection.
