    About this ebook

    A mage murdered two people in broad daylight in the middle of Harlem. I get twelve hours to ensure there aren't more.

    These days, New York is full of monsters. But a murder of two in broad daylight is unusual even for Harlem.

    Worse, the murder weapon seems to be magic, which puts a spotlight on the Mage Guild. The grandmaster thus instantly hires a private investigator to resolve the issue as soon as possible.

    That investigator is me, Lucas Johnson.

    And I don't like this case. Since death is the punishment for revealing the existence of magic to anyone who isn't a witch or mage, things like this just don't happen.

    But the two corpses cannot be argued with. And I can't shake the feeling that if I don't solve this within a day, there will be more.

    Many more.

    Join the intriguing investigation in this fast-paced urban fantasy thriller full of action.

      I came fully awake as I sat up and cracked my head on the thwart of my upturned canoe. The pain cleared my head. I felt under my bedroll for my knife, hoping I hadn’t made enough noise to attract the attention of whatever—whoever?—had waked me. I did

      When Wendy Asked What We Dream

      Jul 1, 2019

      When Wendy asked what we dream, I wanted to say war and drowning. Not drowning exactly, but the moment when the choice is made to drown or not drown, before the mouth opens. Instead I said I never dream of cats. But that night I remembered the cats I
