When detective for hire, Ashira Cohen, was 13, her con artist father disappeared, leaving her with emotional scars and a limp she can't hide. But she toughened up, determined never to be played again. Is history repeating itself?

First, she's hit on the head during a stakeout, revealing a mysterious tattoo on the back of her skull. Even worse? It's a now-broken ward unleashing dangerous magic that as a Mundane, she shouldn't possess. 

Her unruly powers nearly kill her long-time nemesis, Levi, the uptight leader of the magic community. One word from him about her forbidden abilities, and everything she's built will be taken from her… by force.

The only bright spot is that Levi requires her supernatural skills, providing Ash's chance at payback and she's going to enjoy every second of it.

Series includes: Blood & Ash, Death & Desire, Shadows & Surrender, and Revenge & Rapture.

The Jezebel Files

I dropped the thumb drive into it. "Consider this payment in full. A stolen drive that's password protected and may hold the key to finding Meryem and stopping further smudges from being created."  


Levi had tried to access the drive on his laptop to no avail on the flight back. 


"You were busy last night," Priya said. 


"With work, Pink Menace." It might be fun to put her and Miles in the same room and see what happened. 


"Forget it. Look at the drive after you've napped." 


"You give me a mystery drive to play with and then tell me to sleep? Pfft." Suddenly bright-eyed, she pulled the spare laptop that she kept for when she was dealing with potential viruses or things that could fry her motherboard out from under the couch where she'd left it, and inserted the drive. "Ooh. This is even better than that pashmina Mummy gave me for Diwali. It's not just password protected, this baby is encrypted." 


"So, that's a 'no' to getting into the files?"
