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.

The Jezebel Files

I jumped to my feet, jogged down the stairs, and grabbed Omar by the shirtfront. "Did you swallow the feather, you stupid son-of-a-bitch?" 


Shannon screamed and Husani tried to pull me off, but I stomped on his instep. 


Someone calmly cleared their throat. Moran had appeared, sword in hand, looking pointedly between me and Omar. 


"If I'd actually attacked him, he wouldn't be standing." I released Omar, smoothing out his clothing. He wasn't worth me turning to stone. Again. 


"Your gentle demeanor reaffirms my faith in humanity," Moran said. 


"Thank you for seeing that. It's hard dimming my bright light so I don't blind you lesser mortals." 


I whirled on Omar, who shrank back. "You did swallow it, didn't you? You came across the feather on the site and stole it from her." 


"Her? You got attacked by a woman?" Chione broke into belly guffaws. Masika swatted her, but that only made her laugh harder.
