Bleak History by John Shirley

An original dark and gritty urban fantasy novel by the acclaimed and award-winning author John Shirley. In near-future New York City, bounty hunter Gabriel Bleak, a man with the ability to communicate with the dead, is relentlessly hunted by a clandestine government organization with mysterious links to his past. Now Bleak and other members of the Shadow Community - a slowly growing underground group who all have supernatural abilities, and who all considered a threat to national security - must uncover the looming danger brought about by those at the upper echelons of power - a return to the dark ages...and quite possibly a capitulation to the demonic.
