Detective Thaddeus Ezax is in over his head. He’s the only wizard in Rockshade’s Paranormal Investigations Department, and it was his name that got him the job. The Ezaxs are known as some of the most powerful wizards in the world, but Thaddeus isn’t your average Ezaxs. Is it any wonder his family shuns him? When a kidnapping case is dropped into his lap, Thaddeus must act fast. While most five-year-olds can cast a location spell, Thaddeus can't and is forced to get creative. When he finds himself in possession of a black market werewolf skull with a ghost trapped inside, accidentally releases the spirit, and somehow forms a connection with it, things get even crazier. Sandulf Hunter doesn’t remember dying, but he remembers the last thing he saw before everything went black -- a wizard. All wizards must die! The only problem is, the wizard standing next to him smells too damned good, so good Sandy thinks he might have to keep him. And since wherever Thaddeus goes, Sandulf finds himself yanked along, he might not have a choice in the matter anyway.

“They picked it up about two blocks from the restaurant where she works, and they believe it might be hers.” He reached over Elora’s desk and pointed at the earrings Ava Davis was wearing in the picture, which looked to be the same. “So it’s likely she fought. There’s some blood on it.” He wanted to ask Elora some questions about her skill, but Ric and Leo were still hanging around, and shifters heard way too much.


Elora lowered her voice into a whisper. “I don’t want to touch it.”
