    A strange phenomenon causes everyone within a ten-mile radius to pass out, waking up with no memory of the event. No one recalls what they saw, no one but Charles Malone, a quirky, reclusive company owner with a secret past. Join him as he guides his staff of computer programmers, a doorman, and a large cast of characters through the mystery, racing against an ominous warning. Porter is convinced it's aliens, Fritzy thinks it's a parallel universe, Mina thinks it's all her fault, and Charles thinks it's a fun game.

    Rise of the Magi Book 2 of the Priests and Magi quadrilogy. Shadows stir, and old enemies resurface. As Cyrus the Great wages war against Babylon, the mastermind behind the Median Magus cabal has returned -- more formidable than before. Cyrus the Great faces a threat that transcends borders. This sequel takes place in the Babylon of Belshazzar in the days just preceding its fall to Cyrus the Great. In a world where loyalties shift like desert sands, secrets hold sway. The fate of empires hangs in the balance, and the magus cabal's resurgence threatens to unravel all that Cyrus has built. Based on historical events, Rise of the Magi weaves well-developed characters and plot, espionage, ancient gothic mystery elements, intrigue, ambition, and the cost of power, and slow-burn and enemies-to-lovers blended in romance.

    "Take a deep breath as you pull it back," he whispered in my ear, his face only inches away from mine. His hot breath fanning the side of my face. His hands were positioned on my dainty little ones. "And then what?" I asked in a bare whisper after doing what I was told. I looked straight ahead, scared of what my eyes will meet if I turn. "Exhale and let go," he instructed. And that's what I did. The arrow hit it's target.
