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 wasn't up to diving in to Mayan's case tonight, but I was too restless to go to sleep. My thoughts kept circling back to my dad. Every attempt I'd made to locate him in the past had failed. Did A Study in Scarlet finally give me a lead? 


"He took off a couple months before my magic showed up, and we know he paid me a visit in the hospital. So Adam was still in town at that point." My hands tightened on the book. I pressed it to my chest and not to my nose like I foolishly wanted to, checking if any trace of Old Spice and lemon candies still clung to the pages.  


"If this isn't some ploy by Chariot, then it makes a difference if Adam gave Gavriella the book before or after he had the Van Gogh ward up your magic," Priya said. She'd returned from her walk shortly after Levi had left. "If it happened afterward, the manifestation of your magic might be what prompted him to make contact. He might have been protecting you."
