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

Once upon a time I'd had a mother who loved magic. She'd snuggled under the covers with me, told me all sorts of fantastic tales, and taught me to believe in the impossible. I'd lost a lot growing up and I'd stopped believing in happily-ever-after.  


But my mother had stopped believing in me. 


Pulling down my visor mirror, I carefully finger-combed my hair and reapplied my lipstick, determined to look my best for my next stop.  


"Failure is not an option," I said, and turned the key. Moriarty didn't start until the third try. Third time's the charm, right? Taking it as a positive omen and not a sign that my life was about to derail, I drove to House Pacifica.  


Levi often worked Saturdays - him being there now wasn't a stretch. 


Veronica watched me approach with furrowed brows, speaking to someone over a headset. When I got to her desk, standing there politely and waiting for her to finish, she kept craning around me, looking for something.
