      Shelton "Shifty" Sharpe may be a con artist, but he's not a violent criminal. What he lacks in ruthlessness, he makes up for in ingenuity. He's going to need to be at his most clever to escape his captivity to a black magician.   He overreaches himself when he tries to pass of a replica as the magical artifact he's commissioned to find.   Shifty is taken captive by Damien Rathschild and forced to become his minion to pay back the debt.   Can he bide his time waiting for a chance to escape? Or will enduring the Crucible and Damien's demands push him over the edge?

      Black magician, Damien Rathschild, is still Shelton "Shifty" Sharpe's master. Shifty was only allowed to come back because the infusion process gave him special talents Damien finds useful.   Luckily, Damien needs Shifty to work in the field in order to exercise his talents properly, so he's not kept in captivity anymore. However, Damien's standards are still high, and he demands results.   As far as, Damien's business associates are concerned, none of Damien's employees last long or are seen again after he dismisses them, and no one will miss Shifty if he gets "terminated."   Can Shifty survive his probation if he doesn't have the ruthlessness he needs to engage in black magic?

      Shelton "Shifty" Sharpe's master, Damien Rathschild, always thinks of new ways to challenge him.   Now he has to help Damien in his latest power contest with his rival Josiah Nesfer, the prize of which is the magical artifact that Shifty was first commissioned to find when he became Damien's minion.   Carrying out Damien's instructions is hard enough without knowing his master will execute him for incompetence if his failures don't get him killed in the crossfire.
