New to his own job, and recently sober, James takes a chance on Isobel, despite his suspicion that she's a trouble-magnet. His misgivings are borne out by lunchtime, when she stumbles across a dead secretary in a bathroom stall. Can Isobel find the killer before he strikes again?

// Highest ranking #363 // New Imperos is considered the city where magic was born. As witches, vampires, fairies and more claimed their power and rose out of the shadows, a new era began that slowly spread across the world. No longer did they have to hide. They were finally free. But not everything in New Imperos is as wonderful as it appears. Peony lives on the outskirts of the city in the dilapidated shanty town housing the unfortunate humans living their lives without magic. Even further away nestled in a lush forest is Lucasta, trapped in a manor that is the headquarters for an intricate sex trafficking operation. The lives of two girls, separated by class and distance, become inextricably intertwined. Nothing is what it seems, and inevitably they'll learn that their blood is much stronger than they ever imagined.
