King's Cat - Malkins & Mages - E-book - ePub

A new promotion leads one partner to a false arrest--for murder. Toby and Lorn are newly promoted King's Elite Force agents who are tasked by Grand Master Mage Pahdrigeen Ickabode with investigating if the Interim Grand Master Mage was misusing his position. Blocked by internal politics, Toby and Lorn find they are getting nowhere when Toby is summoned to Director Leela Mori's macabre lab where she tries to enlist his aid in identifying why a fellow kingsman was murdered.
Despite knowing it could cost their careers in the KEF, the duo agrees a murder is too important to ignore, especially one involving a fellow kingsman, and decide to pursue the cases separately. Suddenly Toby and Lorn discover their separate cases may be related--and too hot to handle. When planted evidence gets Toby is arrested for the kingsman's murder, Lorn is forced to find the real killer before his partner is executed for a crime he didn't commit.
