    About this series

    Sawyer Matthews is a retired and presumed-dead assassin. Ripped from her life of shadows and secrets, she's decided to gamble it all and accept a new chapter in her life-one that may lead to a brighter future.

    With her first case over and budding relationships with some of her teammates, Sawyer finds herself feeling more secure. Sawyer's found a place on the team, and wants to keep it, no matter the struggles that come from it.

    It should have been a standard, mundane trip to New York, and the base of operations for the IMPO and the WMC. Conflict ensues when political intrigue, hot tempers, and old grudges land the team in trouble with those who would see Sawyer fail.

    The team will need to fight to stay together.

    Or die trying.

    Contains mature themes.

      Sawyer Matthews knows how to put one foot in front of the other, to keep moving while the nightmares haunt her, and her own failures taunt her. She's become a master at doing awful things with good intentions, terrible things for the sake of those who need her. She's long given up on being the hero, trying to find peace in no longer being the villain. When her past comes back and she finds herself caught by the International Magi Police Organization, she'll have to revisit her own personal hells and finally confront the very monster that made her what she is. The very monster that has already killed her once before. Will the "dead" Magi assassin Shadow finally come out of the dark to begin a fight for a redemption she doesn't believe she deserves? Or will her nightmares drag her back into the shadows that have defined her life? Contains mature themes.

      Sawyer Matthews is a retired and presumed-dead assassin. Ripped from her life of shadows and secrets, she's decided to gamble it all and accept a new chapter in her life-one that may lead to a brighter future. New beginnings come with new problems, though, and she's always lived by the belief that she doesn't deserve of redemption-a painful truth Sawyer has held in her heart for years. Their first case takes the team to Texas, where members are confronted with more than just Sawyer's painful past. The team is sent to deal with a series of suspicious deaths, but end up dealing with the community's entrenched prejudices, an unregistered Magi at its heart. Nothing is what it seems as the killer enacts a deadly game of cat-and-mouse, and the team is sucked into a case even more sinister than they thought. Can Sawyer's first case with the International Magi Police Organization help her to realize she's deserving of the redemption offered? And what about her heart? Will she overcome its core of shame to learn she deserves even more than redemption? Contains mature themes.
