The Fetch

(4) YA Calder is a Fetch, a spirit sent to escort dying souls to the afterlife. When he becomes fixated on a mortal woman, he breaks the rules, takes up a body, and finds himself in the midst of the Russian Revolution. Hampered by a detached narrative voice, the story doesn't fully deliver on its intriguing premise.
