Fury of the Sorceress

Immortality has its perks. Dealing with vampires is not one of them.

 

After nine hundred years protecting the balance between magical and mundane, I do my best to avoid squabbles among the fanged variety.

 

They're overdramatic, dress better than I do, and never have simple problems.

 

My oldest friend included.

 

But when Adrian asks me, his favourite sorceress, to do him a favour and help find a missing vampire queen, what can I do but say yes? Especially when my sort-of protégé has a vision about all the ways the city will go sideways if we don't get her back on her throne.

 

The missing person's case quickly devolves into a free-for-all as a horde of rogue human thralls decides I would better serve the vampires dead. Who's giving them orders? Because it certainly isn't the queen. Not helping matters is my ex, a servant of Death, who refuses to stay where he's supposed to: in my past.

 

With the city on the brink of war, the vampire nest on the edge of collapse, and my suitcase at serious risk of running empty before this problem is resolved, I have to put the pieces together before it's too late.

 

Oh yeah. Adrian owes me big time.
