Being a private investigator is complicated enough. Being part witch, part faery, and surrounded by ghosts, wizards, and supernatural secrets? That's when things get interesting. My name is Leo St. James. I'm twenty-five, a private investigator, and-despite my best efforts-I still live with my parents. To be fair, my mother is part witch and part faery; my father is human; my grandmother is a ghost who insists on teaching me magic; and we live in a ridiculously large mansion.
So it could be worse. Then Phoenix Armstrong, a powerful wizard with a very disturbing problem, walks into my life. He knows he's going to die. And he wants me to find out who murdered him. What begins as a murder investigation quickly plunges me into a dangerous supernatural world of dark magic, hidden agendas, and secrets powerful people would rather keep buried. With my human friend Daniel-an oddly knowledgeable librarian who somehow knows more about the supernatural world than I do-at my side, I start pulling at a thread that leads straight into my own family. Betrayal.
Forbidden magic. Fierce faeries. Dangerous warlocks. And a family history that becomes more disturbing with every secret I uncover. Then there's Raven, a mysterious warlock with a complicated past, and Lucifer-yes, that Lucifer-who happens to be a family friend. Because apparently, my family doesn't do normal. As trust begins to crumble and long-buried secrets rise to the surface, I discover that solving Phoenix's murder may be only the beginning.
Someone-or something-is watching from the shadows. And everyone seems terrified to speak about the Mage. I have no idea who the Mage is. But I'm starting to think he knows exactly who I am.
