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 blinked at him dumbly for a second, willing my brain to switch gears. Then I shook my head at Veronica. "Is she okay?" 


He motioned me inside the office and shut the door. "Yeah. He cornered her after work to see if Gunter had finished Alfie off. Mayan tried to go along with it, but Jonah figured out Gunter was gone. He flew into a rage, demanding to know how."

"No. She maced him and fled." He rubbed a hand over his inky black hair, sending it into disarray. "She's safe now, but I want him locked up. Miles still can't track him down, so you'll need to follow up with Moran." 


"Right. Of course. I'll..." My brain stuttered and went blank. The bolted cylinder lock and set of pick tools were on the coffee table, sitting on top of another Sherlock Holmes collection.
