The Pale House Devil by Richard Kadrey
More of a short story than a novel. I don't think it even gets to Novella length. This is a full on Kadrey novel with dark magic and undead things. A pair of problem solvers from New York head to California after the way they solved a problem gets them into trouble. They find a new job and a problem to solve in Northern California. But, nothing is as it seems and their job goes all sorts of haywire.
I think the book is the opening for a new series. There is all sorts of world building. Threads are left dangling.

As a matter of fact, my anger does keep me warm
