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

Miles delivered a couple of banker's boxes full of information about the Allegra Group to my office, bright and early Friday morning. He also released Priya from House duties to go through it all with me, since she already had a working knowledge of the company.  


Priya lifted out a stack of folders. "Adding to your collection?" 


"Hmm?" I lifted the lid off a box, glancing over at the wall of framed Sherlock Holmes covers. Under the grid of the original framed covers hung a new addition: "The Final Problem."  


The story where Sherlock Holmes dies. I dropped the lid. Chariot had been in the office and sent me this message. 


Priya raised an eyebrow. "Was this a surprise?" she teased. 


"No," I lied. I pulled the print off the wall and shoved it in a drawer. "I thought it would work with the others, but I don't like it."
