The antihero who made his debut in THE SANDMAN and starred in his own hit series is back in a new series by best-selling writer Holly Black (The Spiderwick Chronicles) and artist Lee Garbett (Loki)! As this series begins, God is dead-and Gabriel has accused Lucifer of His murder. Lucifer had motive and opportunity but claims he can prove his innocence. If Gabriel finds the killer and takes the culprit into custody, his sins will be forgotten, and he’ll be welcomed back to Silver City. So, despite the fact that Lucifer just opened a nightclub on Earth and is hiding a mysterious wound, the two brothers set off to solve their Father’s murder. Their investigation will span Heaven, Hell, Earth and beyond in this antagonistic buddy-cop noir with an angelic flair.

Agreeing to team up to find out who killed their Father, Lucifer and Gabriel begin the hunt for clues and suspects. And what better place to search for God’s murderer than Lucifer’s former realm, Hell? But how will the Lords and Ladies of the Nine Circles respond to the return of their old ruler? Plus, the return of a one-time nemesis of a certain Dreamking.

Finding little assistance in Hell, Gabriel and Lucifer continue their quest to uncover their Father’s murderer. Next The Dreaming. Meanwhile, Azazel, a former Archduke loyal to Beelzebub, finds himself in the hands of an unlikely savior, an orphaned thirteen-year-old girl named Medjine.

The Devil must face some demons of his own as Lucifer and Gabriel travel through the Dreaming to meet some old “friends” in the Japanese underworld. Meanwhile, Medjine finally decides what to do with her bottled buddy, the archdemon Azazel.

Lucifer and Gabriel finally solve the murder of The Almighty-but they have differing opinions on the culprit! Either suspect’s guilt would have cosmic consequences. Who’s right and what might that mean for our Guardian Gumshoes? Find out in the concluding chapter of “Cold Heaven.”

Without God to guide them, the angels in Heaven are in a frenzy, looking for guidance from Raphael who seeks to gain answers from perennial scapegoat Lucifer. Meanwhile, things in Hell are heating up with too many potential leaders as Mazikeen prepares to face off a usurper with assistance from an unexpected ally. But with Heaven and Hell so engrossed in their own affairs, who’s keeping track of what’s happening on Earth?

Lucifer must join the fight for the throne of Hell! But the balance of power in Heaven is about to take a dark and deadly turn!

Noema Presto’s legacy comes to light and she must decide whether her birthright is a gift or a curse. While the world crumbles, new powers promise to alter the course of the battle of Heaven and Hell-just as Lucifer finally confronts God and his rekindled feelings for Mazikeen.
