Hall of Mirrors
Book Three of the Coil Series
Every Reflection Demands a Price
After the events of 9 Lords of Night, retired detective Néstor Buñuel wants only to forget. But the past refuses to stay buried.
When The Night Drinker, the ritual killer he once helped apprehend, demands a final interview from prison, Néstor agrees—setting into motion a chain of events that will collapse the boundaries between the human and the divine.
Their conversation becomes a ritual, a summoning. And Néstor soon finds himself drawn back into Mictlán, the ancient underworld where the story of The Coil Series began.
A Descent Into New Darkness
Inside the shifting corridors of Mictlán, gods and goddesses reveal themselves—not as distant figures of myth, but as forces that shape reality through human bodies, memory, and blood.
Each encounter tests Néstor’s understanding of truth, guilt, and transformation, leading him toward the ultimate revelation: the war between gods and mortals has crossed into our world, and its next eruption will ignite Chicago itself.
The Coil Unravels
Hall of Mirrors is the final, transformative chapter of The Coil Series by Cesar Torres—a queer dark-fantasy epic where myth, horror, and identity intertwine.
From the shadows of 13 Secret Cities to the obsessions of 9 Lords of Night, this concluding novel brings the saga full circle, exploring the mirror as both weapon and salvation.
